    I've learned that getting out of debt has to be intentional. It's work! Which is why many people don't do anything about it. I'm a loan officer assistant and it just blows my kind how many people don't know how much they really bring home in income or even what their credit card balances are. 🙈 Thanks for the video! Can't wait to get my budget system setup!! Happy New Year!!

      more importantly, why are we learning this as adults instead of when growing up so we can be prepared to live debt free? thanks for your insight! you're right, it has become the norm and it's so exhausting. where do we start?

    • @melissamuddle6459
      @melissamuddle6459 6 лет назад +3

      mrs ivt because parents are lazy and leave their children's entire education to public schools then they set poor spending examples and it leaves children confused about spending/budgeting.

    • @LakeshiaRosser
      @LakeshiaRosser 6 лет назад

      @@melissamuddle6459 Sometimes parents struggle and their parents struggled and weren't able to set the best financial examples this in turn impacts the childrens thoughts about money one way or another. They either get used to struggling and never learn how not to or they remember their struggles and never want to be that way as adults. From what I've witnessed people who struggle tend to be some of the hardest workers and are far from lazy. Be careful what you say about parents and their parenting.....

It must be so nice to have a great flow with your money! Keep these great videos coming… Thank you

The larger ones I keep in their separate savings accounts since I don’t use them often. We completed Dave’s plan last 2016! So 2018 is about enjoying life now. Thanks again!

I have been hearing about Dave Ramsey here and there and everywhere but when I watched this video I had to buy the Total money makeover book and now I am doing financial peace university and on my way to hopefully be debt free. Anyways, I have done my first zero based budget and I am using my Erin condemn planner and I have model it after yours, thanks so much!!!!

    I absolutely love the way you utilize your planner for your budget, definitely going to be joining the color coding version like you do. I love the way you explain little details. I am so looking forward to starting this hopefully to be in full swing by next January. It may take me the rest of this year to get things organized and set up so that I can actually start it next January. It will take me that long to finish setting up my current new life planner I just started with Erin Condren in February, taking some time to get it set up with all the info I am going to need and then help my mom with hers as well. Thanks again for all you have shared, can't wait to see the next video with your sinking fund budget the one thing I don't have set up yet for sure.

    I really like the way you have set up your planner. Currently I’ve been using an excel spreadsheet to track our monthly bills and debt. The spreadsheet is how I allocate which bills are paid from which paycheck. I was thinking about ordering the deluxe monthly planner to incorporate with my spreadsheet. I love DR too. We’ve been following his plan and will be debt free in about 2 1/2 years.

    I have been dividing all bills - insurance, dental, all extras, Christmas, by twelve months for about 18 years now. I love this system. I take the cost and divide by 12. The money goes into a "holding fund" savings account.

    I appreciate you so much for taking your personal time to share this! I am trying to make the transition from just tracking expenses to actually creating a budget and sticking to it. This is my upcoming New Years goal and your videos making a great start for me. I have watched both this and your sinking funds videos more then once and I can’t wait to apply your methods! Thank you so much!
    P.s. You mentioned you would be making a video of how you do your bills for each pay period. Is that something still in the works?

    Do you have a monthly budget meeting with your husband? How do you manage your savings? What do you do with the balances of your sinking funds at the end of the year?

    • @JenPlans
      @JenPlans  6 лет назад +1

      ssarabia 212 My husband is incredibly frugal and does almost none of our purchasing, and I do all of the bill pay, so I just tell him if anything is out of the ordinary for the month. I pretty much do it myself. But, we did make our initial budget together and we got on the same page with goals/organization/planning many years ago, so it works for us now! We’re kind of just working the plan. Sinking funds are rolling!

    • @JenPlans
