Thanks!! I’ve been watching all sorts of budgeting videos and yours make the most sense to more.
Thanks for watching and that kind comment. 😁
Love this way to prioritize sinking funds. Thank you. I’m so new to sinking funds
They have really helped me not go further into debt and reach new financial goals.
Omg doing gas and groceries in your bills list is mind blowing. I would have never thought of doing it that way. I get paid once a month and I am excited to allot this into my bills. My husband gets paid weekly and with his paycheck we do saving challenges and weekly spending (including gas and groceries). This might be a game changer for us! Thank you. 🎉
Awesome, I am so glad 😊 Let me know how it goes.
Thanks! 😊 The audiobook for Atomic Habits is on RUclips…or at least it was earlier this year. My main takeaways were: 1) tracking your habits and reflecting on your progress regularly is required to improve & 2) just focusing on improving by 1% at a regular frequency will help improve your outcomes.
Amazing points. I will look on youtube. Thanks for the heads up. 😊❤️
Atomic Habits is an amazing book. Read 12 Week Year by Brain Morgan and Michael Lennington..
Thanks Laura! My goal for 2024 is to stop being such a perfectionist and just keep plugging along - with my new part time job "side hustle" I plan on funding some savings challenges (something I have never done) and prove to myself (and my husband!) that we can build our savings while living a content life. Your guidance keeps me believing that I can do it! On this Thanksgiving day, I am adding you to my list of things I'm truly thankful for...
I am so excited for you as you step into savings, and I am also so very thankful for you!! Have a blessed Thanksgiving!!!
Fabulous. Very easy to understand. Thank you.
This video really gave me a better understanding of hi and lo priority sinking funds. Thank you 😊
So glad 😊
Thank you for the great advice! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!
Thanks for watching. Have a great Thanksgiving 😊❤️
Thank you very much for your instructional video (& supplied PDFs)! It’s appreciated.
So glad there helpful!
Thank you for this video. I have been searching for a budget channel for someone with a large family and your is the first I have seen. We have 8 children with 5 of them at home still. I have to say I am not understanding your $180 for clothes for the year. That doesn't even really cover one person for a year. We also have to work in our eating out budget the way you do where you stuff a little each time and eventually you can go out. That is definitely a category we have cut back on since I started budgeting.
Thanks for watching, 180 will be a starting goal, and the school fund and other saving challenges also go towards clothes. But I use consignment stores to trade in their old clothes and get new clothes, plus use birthdays as clothes and shoes opportunities. Love having you here apart of the lymanjoy community. ❤️😊
All of it is great advice!!
This was extremely helpful! I was so confused about sinking funds vs savings challenges. I do have the Savings Challenge Book from "On the Hill Design" and I cannot wait to use it and assign the low priority categories to each one. 💜
I'm so glad it was helpful. I am so excited, too...think I may start next month. Just want to get a saving. Love to hear how it's going, and if you have any questions along the way, don't hesitate to ask. 😊
Thank you Laura for this! I have been searching for a video that really breaks down cash stuffing. So grateful that you did this video! I am starting in January. I’m so excited!
I am so excited for you. Cash stuffing has totally changed my finances. If you have any questions along the way, don't hesitate to ask.
New subscriber! Such an amazing video, thank you for the advice! ❤
I'm so glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching!!

Blessings,
Deanna

Thanks for explaining the sinking funds and what to do with the savings challenges. New subbie! I started making a budget for 2024 but this video really helped me. I tried to get the free download but it wouldn’t let me..what do I need to do to get your very helpful budget sheets. 🤔
Can you email me at lymanjoy8@gmail.com and we will figure it out. 😁
Hi Laura! I started sinking funds this summer and I haven’t had much success. I have an emergency fund and a traditional savings account (both are HYSAs). Should I keep those accounts and save on the outside for sinking funds or should I use the money in my traditional savings account to fund the sinking funds. Hope that makes sense! Thank you!
I would take the money monthly from traditional savings funds to use for challenges, and when a challenge is funded, deposit into high yield savings to grow it.
@@lymanjoy omg that makes so much sense! Thank you and happy holidays!
How often do u bring your sinking fund money to ur bank? And do u have for every category of sinking fund a seperate bank saving account? Like one for emergency fund, one for personal savings etc?
About every other month. I take all my sinking fun money to my high yield. Savings account at wealth front, which has different categories for each sinking fund and makes a 5% growth.
@@lymanjoy do i understand it correct, that wealth front is your hysa for your sinking funds? I like the idea that 1. You earn 5% interest and that they have seperate accounts so i can see how much i have in each sinking fund category
where did you get the kids cash stuffing ones

I am sorry I know what the fund is I just wanted someone to be able to laugh while doing their best to handle life's storms
😊
im on ss i can only do the low income right now, but i have started
I totally understand... one step forward every day.😊
every dollar saved counts@@lymanjoy
I have a pension and a very small S. S. check myself. I guess it's never too late to learn, is it?
So Is sinking funds and savings fund the same thing?
Yes, but I think there needs to be a short term used throughout the year and long term for years to come.
Laura, how’d you get into coding. Shelley
I worked in a doctor office as a medical assistant for years. But my eldest daughter, CHD and had 7 open heart surgeries and then a heart attack and stroke, at 11 years old, so I needed something else to do as I traveled back and forth to hospital visits and at home. So my office manager, who was a coder, taught me. I took classes on AAPC, and the rest is history now 12 years later still at it.
Is a sinking fund our paychecks
The sinking fund is a savings category you save for, like car maintenance, so when a need arises, you have the money and don't go into debt.
When you get time, can you let me know where you got your wallet? Or if you have a link, please.
So, unfortunately, I can't find this exact one anymore, but here is one that is similar.
