I use to be on section 8 years ago, it was a lifesaver during the time that I had it but I wanted more for me and my children. I got tired of the housing inspections, filling out forms etc. I decided to get my certifications in education and I haven’t looked back. Congratulations on making more money and being self sufficient, I’m proud of you.🙂
Hello my friend. Yes! I’m definitely tired of the paperwork, the inspections, the rules and them being all up in my business. Hang on in there school is almost out. We have 2 weeks left.
I was on subsidy as well and once I got off I lost my mind with working two jobs and doing crazy overtime and damn near tripled my income and now I'm quite proud of myself. I literally now have a great emergency fund and I have savings! Being independent is so fulfilling!
Not being mean. But if you don’t want people in your business. How about you pay your own rent ? Section 8 and welfare /foodstamps has decimated the black community and family. Just like the democrats wanted. Now they are dependent on voting for democrats.
Tired of the forms to pay 1/3 of the rent? You should be more grateful vs. complaining about taxpayers funding the roof over your head. The rich don't carry you - the hard working disappearing middle class pays not only their high housing cost - but yours, too.
Thank you for the work that you do as a school custodian. You all are so valuable to school communities, you deserve much more and I can't thank you enough
I just love a good ol pen and notebook budget! Wow I can't believe your rent is going up to $906. That's why it's crucial you have a great budget like you do.
I’m 53, I have no children. I’m at a very low point, I have given up. I’m living at my parents house. I had a Section 8 voucher for a very long time, then the place I was at wouldn’t renew my lease. I’m trying to find a womens group home to get into now. I have a high school diploma and some college. I admire that you’re trying, but you need to know that you’re in a situation that is difficult to get out of. The best thing you can do is stay the hell away from using those credit cards!!! Pay them off and don’t use them at all unless it comes down to you needing them to pay your rent. Watch carefully what you’re paying for food and things like toilet paper and cleaning supplies. ❤
As an assistant manager/OS in public housing. I never hear residents that they are trying to be self sufficient! Way to use your resources! Keep the positive attitude and wishing you the best on your journey! The goal is to always GROW AND GO💜
I have a family of 3 . I took in a bonus kid so we are now a family of 4 . I make $16.51 per hour no government help at all. I got myself off of food assistance a few years ago. We budget and everything is planned out .
That is wonderful. I’m striving to be more self sufficient myself. I had someone comment that I was complain and should be grateful. Don’t get me wrong I’m grateful to have had the stepping stone but it’s now time to do better. If she is mad that I want to do better then I don’t know what to tell her
@@sj9410 I have no mortgage payment just property tax and insurance so my income is to high . One income household . They said a few years ago I qualified for $51 a month . I can work overtime a few days a year and make more than that. Unfortunately I haven't had overtime for the last 8 months but we do fine budgeting.
I'm proud of you. God will provide the income needed to get you where you need to and wanna get to. Stay positive, trust God, and you can do it. New subscriber ❤.
❤❤❤ I went from section 8 to homeowner. It’s hard but cash envelopes has done so much for me. One reason why I wanted to have a RUclips channel to give others hope. Great video ❤❤❤
So funny hearing you say Ashton hasn’t done any chores yet 😂. Reminds me of when my kids were young. They didn’t do any either unless I forced them. ❤❤❤❤❤
You are so right, I feel the same way about receiving help from the government, I appreciate it so much cause good help is hard to find these days, but you have to take it as it’s meant to help you till YOU get on your feet, if not then you’ll forever be on it and barely getting by. ❤
Last time I made 15/hr was 2013. That's 11 yrs ago. It's crazy they still pay people this low. It's unfair the people in our schools taking care of our kids make so little. You're doing your best. It'll only get better
This is surprising to me too. I thought anything after 40 per week they have to pay you time and a half. It makes me sad that after all that work that check is still small. But I think it very much depends on where you live.
You're such a big influence to my husband & I on our debt journey. I love watching all your videos. I'd love to hear your reason behind your debt journey. Thank you for always being so real to all of us, along your journey because I know my husband & I make mistakes along our way, too. I'm always over budget on our groceries! ❤
You’re moving on up 🎉 Those programs can hinder you. You’re so right. That ACP program is going down to about $15 a month. You’re doing great, and I love the attitude ❤❤ Go, Sister Girl! Have a blessed night 🦋🦋🤗
Just found your channel. Love it! My husband is a school custodian as well, and therefore I know how physically demanding the job is. Keep going. May God bless you and your daughter.
Your attitude and determination to grow and make a better future for your daughter is applaudable ma'am! I was a single mom and it is a struggle and there is no shame in getting assistance as you make a better way. Praying for your journey! 💛
I wish you luck in your journey. But please use those extra 'house down payment' funds to pay off the credit cards ASAP! The interest rates are killing you!
Emily, I relate so well with what you shared about your 20's. I'm older than you are but made some of the same mistakes and like you, I'm on journey to improve my finances. Just recently everything that I've saved had to be pulled and used towards various debts and its disappointing that I have to start all over..but nonetheless, I'm glad I have the ability to do just that...start over.❤❤❤
Im pn disability, living fixed income. And understand much of what said. Am lucky in before got disabled got house pd off so no rent. Lucky when got disabled my car was repo'd and a friend had a college daughter who the'd dought a used car in hs and she was near graduating college but didnt like car so they decided to get her a car and gave me the old used car. That was 2016 and its a '98 and still running though recently it tried to be "carrie" and wrecked itself (i was in hpuse, in bed, and it rolled down neighbors driveway. Took money i was saving towards a new used on to repair her for $1500.86 . So much better then if hadnt been saving. Love seeing someone else serviving . Youve got a plan and following it
I'm glad I found this video. I think you have a great attitude. As for me, I'm an over-educated 38 year old with migraines, so sadly I'm not sure if self-sufficiency is possible if I can't get my migraines under control!
Sis I get to the point where if I have the money to give I don't give it because I use it for other necessary things like my kid or stuff I need around the house or trying to get a house so I've been done so wrong in my past for letting people borrow money and they not giving it back or having millions of excuses of why they can't pay you back
Watching this video was like watching my daily life. I use pen/paper for my budget. I split my bills between 2 checks, too. I appreciate your honesty in how you handle your household. It aint easy out here for us single moms, but we doing it. God provides 😊
Glad I came across your channel someone with a income I can relate to,, I make 16.60 working as a cna but I'm doing way better then I use to financially I felt like I was drowning because of the pay we use to get as a cna we still don't get paid good but it a Lil more better & I'm budgeting my money pretty good
A friend of mine was on section 8 and they didn’t help much and the on,y way she was able to make money was to penny pinch. God bless you and girl your doing so well.
I have been on assistance too, and no shame in that. Keep going forward, sister! I love pen and paper too, I’m feeling more in control of my lower income. 😊
Thank you so much Holly. I’m trying it’s hard out here in this economy but I’m trying to stay inspired. I’m glad you are feeling more in control of your income.
We are definitely in similar boats. Sometimes I get frustrated because it seems like most of the money I am saving by being responsible and budgeting is then just going to the next corporation that raises their prices 6, 8, 10 percent. But we persevere. Good luck to you!
Hi Emily! I love how honest you are about your finances. I completely understand when you said if you don’t have money to give don’t loan it. I lost my best friend after I loaned her $1000.00 she didn’t pay back. To this very day I don’t loan money!! Have a blessed week! 🙏🏼❤
I've been in the same situation and it did irreparable damage to a very long friendship of 15-plus years. I was totally blindsided when they didn't pay me back as promised because I trusted them.
Omg! I been searching for your channel for the longest time, probably over a year. I used to like watching your channel. Im glad it popped up. I'm gonna screenshot your page.
God Bless You MOMMAS Yes you are SOOOOO RIGHT!!!! Yes what is yours and what you have is NONE OF Anybodys buiness but GOD and yourself. Yes there are Givers and there are Takers. Yes YOU do you first. I cant stand TAKERS and I do understand I am almost 55 yrs old and I am FOCUS on me. Your doin GREAT Mommas.. yes TOTALLTY UNDERSTAND
Yaaay I think I'm psychic. I subscribed before the holiday then never got any of your videos. I only know who you are because of your occupation so glad you showed up in the algorithm i was looking for your budgeting videos. Another great video keep up the great work I hope youtube helps you monetarily and your channel grows.
I bet you are close to becoming monetized on here!! I hope you get there soon, it will help out a little bit each month! You are doing really well, proud of you!
Great job for you and your family! It's called PROGRESS! Continue to keep that go for it attitude and keep looking up! What a great mindset and example for your children. I subscribed and liked and look forward to following your upward journey Sis! The struggle is real especially at the grocery store. Some of the local food pantries have some great food available as well to supplement!
❤ my first video that I’ve seen on your channel. I just lost my snap starting next month and although I’ll miss the benefit - I also consider it a good thing. N I’m grateful and blessed that it helped me for the last year. My disability finally kicked in. So I make too much now and that’s ok. Grateful for the benefit when I had it and now someone else can be blessed with it.
That’s right❤️I’m glad that you are receiving disability. My S.O gets disability himself and is on a low fixed income himself. Budgeting is key when you have a low income. Thank you for watching and supporting my channel.
You can do this, I promise you things will start getting better. Many years ago I made $7.50 an hour, lived barley paycheck to paycheck, would have $10 to my name for 2 weeks worth of food after paying bills and not going to lie it was HARD,, slowly,, very slowly things got better,, I sometimes still feel the financial struggle and those times are often on my mind and it helps me keep pushing forward, you will start seeing the gains of budgeting ,, just keep putting one foot ahead of the other ,, you got this !
You are sooo relatable. This is my first time seeing your videos and I love your transparency. I just started a job making $15/hr also. My goal is to start a side hustle/ business, save for a house and start back investing. We got this! I'm proud of you💪🏾
@@DiaryofaSingleMom-ov7xf I was thinking of making and selling beaded jewelry. I'm also researching other streams of income that may interest me. Right now I'm sharing the rent, so I'm going to get things in order for when I have to pay full rent. The full rent right now is $1,100, which isn't too bad but stilllll lol
It’s good that you write everything down! That’s something I probably should start doing. I’m TRYING to teach my daughter, I want her to be financially smart and cash stuff on her own one day! We’ll see. What is your ultimate goal for an emergency fund?
hey hey 👋🏽👋🏽👋🏽 I'm new to your channel. Your video was recommended. 906 is not bad for 2 bedroom. That is actually great .. I'm in TN my 1 bedroom is 880 for now. new renters play $1,130... i try to tell a family member to be more self sufficient but that doesn't help. She rather get a job work 6 months and quit to keep all the benefits.. good job to you... I can't braid either.. how many how many times I've tried to learn from my sister it never goes well.. also with me being a lefty everything is backwards 😂 congratulations to your grandma 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽... good job on having a 2007 vehicle with over 200,000 miles.. I have the 2023 Sportage.. and that's what I have to do split the budget with me from the cash stuffing
New subscriber ❤ its good u get to pay rent based on what u make ..great budget breakdown.. yes right now interest rates are super high and houses are not worth the price their asking for.. wishing u much success..already turned my notification bell to follow ur journey ❤ 26:39
I hope that you can receive something from your RUclips videos. Your content helps a lot of folks and you're really good with budgeting on a low income. Thank you for sharing your budget and I hope that things can improve for you and your daughter soon
Thank you so much Rich Auntie. I’m working on getting monetize. I had some old videos that contained copyright material so I’m in the process of saving them and deleting them. It’s a whole process for this monetization stuff.
I live in the upstate of sc also. You’re an inspiration!! I wish you the best!! I hope you are getting some you tube income too. I’m new here so I don’t know if you do.

You’re welcome and thank you for the kind comment
A clean, well cared for school makes all the difference to student success. Thank you!
Keep going. I went from homeless to financially free. You will be financially free someday, as well.
Thank you Darrell. I’m glad you are no longer homeless. I was once homeless as well. I had hit rock bottom but God gave me the strength to keep going.

Making 16.51 an hour with 2 kids should qualify you for food stamps. Unless you're a dual income household.

I'm in TN my 1 bedroom is 880 for now. new renters play $1,130... i try to tell a family member to be more self sufficient but that doesn't help. She rather get a job work 6 months and quit to keep all the benefits.. good job to you... I can't braid either.. how many how many times I've tried to learn from my sister it never goes well.. also with me being a lefty everything is backwards 😂 congratulations to your grandma 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽... good job on having a 2007 vehicle with over 200,000 miles.. I have the 2023 Sportage.. and that's what I have to do split the budget with me from the cash stuffing
I enjoy seeing your progress? Keep grinding!

Thank you. Welcome to the family.
I hope that you can receive something from your RUclips videos. Your content helps a lot of folks and you're really good with budgeting on a low income. Thank you for sharing your budget and I hope that things can improve for you and your daughter soon
Thank you so much Rich Auntie. I’m working on getting monetize. I had some old videos that contained copyright material so I’m in the process of saving them and deleting them. It’s a whole process for this monetization stuff.
