We started Velocity Banking last year. We had very little wiggle room in our budget. Getting serious about debt pay off becomes a bit of a grind, but we say to each other “we’re crushing it!”. It is a good feeling to get debt paid off, but it’s a great feeling to have improved cash flow.
@VanntasticFinances Thank you for your videos. Question for you. If you had two credit cards, one at 12% interest, and the other at 22% interest, both at 10K, which one would you pay off first? The higher interest or the lower interest?
I’ve been watching for some time & this one, by far, made more sense with less fear. I’m one who does not have a LOC but I definitely have CC’s that I’d like to do this with. Now, I’m on a mission to align my bills with said CC’s and I should have it all honed in within the next couple of weeks. My only issue is I’m self employed and my income is very irregular so timing is a bit challenging. Pray for me ya’ll 🙌🏾
It might take you a pay cycle or two to align your bills and you might find yourself in a holding pattern. Please don't get discouraged! If you have to tread water for just a bit to get organized before going all in--that's okay. I am having to do that but I see the potential of having my ducks in a row before doing this correctly. Strangely this gives me comfort and instead of dreading bills/budget/rotation, I finally can breathe for the first time in YEARS.
Thank you! I'm in a negative cash flow myself. I'm living on bare bones expenses, 1 cc $25 mo, and car payment $89 mo. My health insurance and car/home insurance are killing me. I am going to give it a try for a couple months and see what happens 🤞🙏
Games and risk. "Got to play with your money.' That is a quote. Pay the minimum on one card - pay everything you can on the other. Cut expenses to the bone. No games.
the bank can't block you from using the line of credit unless you have had a bad history of making payments. if you have been making payments on time you should not have this problem. if you have had a maxed out line of credit for a long time and you been making late payments, then yes they will most likely lower your line of credit amount as you're making payments because they are covering themselves from taking a loss.
@ deval3596…..Thank you, I’ve never missed a payment but I’ve had the credit for a long time over 10 years, I paid it off once and used the money again…$6,000
Just happened to me paid 1k on Paypal 2200 CL last night and they reduced my limit by 1000. Took whole payment 🥲 only left me with $40. So frustrating. No rhyme to reason.
Great vid, Love your channel! ❤ I’m still learning this method but my problem is Most Credit Cards (at least mine) can be paid only by ACH transfer, so making a ‘bulk’ payment can take an eternal 3-5 days. Meanwhile, funds are so locked up that the available credit on the card is delayed which affects expense payments (Cell, Electric etc)🤔 what am I doing wrong?
Hello, I have a question. If you have a 10,000 PLOC balance. When do you put the income in, and when do you take the expenses out. I’m trying to understand that pattern. Not sure if it makes sense to put the income in and immediately take the expenses out. Would that be defeating the purpose?
I don't understand. If you put your expense money into the credit cards, you have to use the credit cards to pay those expenses. So now the credit card has a balance again. How is this helpful?
By placing all your money into the credit card, you eliminate the credit card payment and reduce the interest over time. The expenses will bring it back up, but not all the way. Eventually, without making any additional payments, it will be paid off.
I do this for only one reason sir. I use my southwest visa on everything and then just pay every month. It earns me a lot of credit and free flights. I have over 800,000 in flight credits for Southwest and a Companion pass using this particular card. I can see your point if there is no plan 😊
Thank you for your videos! Please do a video on which is better: Personal Lines of Credit vs Credit Card Balance Transfer Promo intro at 0%. For years, I have been transferring my debt to pay them down from one credtcard balance transfer promo to the next utilizing your method before I knew what it was called. I'm considering a Ploc but haven't made the move because I don't see how Plocs are better. With my 0% Promo I only pay the transfer fee but with a Ploc if I utilize it there is instant interest. *Note I don’t always get a new credit card. My existing creditcard always offer me great 0% promo deals after I've paid off my previous balance from previous BT offer and I get offered a new promo deal.That's why I haven't found a need to get a Ploc. How is the Ploc a better strategy than what I'm doing?
I got a LOC because I paid off credit cards how do I pay that off? Do I put my whole income less expenses and keep that going until paid off?? Do I pull out lil all expenses cuz it doesn’t seem to me there’d be enough to make a dent. Fascinated by you and man we need help Thank you
go back and look at more of her videos and pay attention. you pay your full paycheck to the line of credit and then you advance from the line of credit to your checking account when you need to pay something.
You possibly could but remember, the second you deposit your paycheck in their the balance drops. For example, if you LOC balance is 10k and you deposit your 2K paycheck you have satisfied your LOC payment. The real treat would be to be disciplined enough to pay all expenses on cash back Credit card and when CC bill is due pay it in full from LOC and take the cash back you earned to either create more cash flow or pay something else down quicker or even put it in your own mutual fund account or whatever asset or wealth building tool you prefer
This math is not mathing! For Starters, if you have a cc with $5000 balance and you make a $2000 payment, believe me, your new balance will not be $3000. That would only be for a 0% interest credit card. Please say that. Everyone fails to mention this when showing these examples and makes people think their balance is quickly going down and it simply is not true. Use a real credit card bill and show how this works for clarity. This just ain’t mathing!!
My cashflow was cut due to high payment. So be careful! I put $250 on a $700 balance card and they cut me back to $450, so all my CF was gone. Don't do that kids! I didn't think $250 was a big payment honestly, I was wrong.

@sleepy580 how did you start velocity banking as most people are living pay check to pay check?
Please do more videos like this one explaining how to start from the beginning. Building credit and starting from the beginning. Love this video!

We're in the same boat here. Never give up!!

Thank you for this!! Currently finding myself in a weird pattern that I really need to shake.
@@liebekatz1 I am getting started here too. There is hope. 😊
The only thing in the first example is you have to accou t for the interest on the CC or your balance will increase a bit each month.
I’ve been stuck in a hole trying to claw my way out. Currently living in a van working multiple jobs. This info is extremely intriguing.

Best advice on the internet ❤❤
Thank you For the insight!!!
Still trying t get my ploc.....it shall happen!!
I get nervous, If you put the money into the line of credit and the bank lock it for whatever reason, you are stuck

@Jesus-kt5dc Thank you!
To the person that files bankruptcy every 7 years, you still have to service the debt. Average person can’t pay the minimum payment on $400k of debt.

Thank you

The balance on checking should only be for emergency
I don’t have a car payment anymore thank you ❤
@apriloneil85 WONDERFUL!!!
Will you explain the micro chunk a bit more? Is the limit cut a way to keep their revenue up by keeping people in debt?
Can or should I pay the LOC off with our clear credit cards then and work them down -help we want to be out of debt-

Can we get a business credit line to get rid of personal debt, like student loans?

The Real Deal!!!!
Infinite Banking link is not working.
My cashflow was cut due to high payment. So be careful!
I put $250 on a $700 balance card and they cut me back to $450, so all my CF was gone. Don't do that kids!
I didn't think $250 was a big payment honestly, I was wrong.
Do you micro chunk into the Ploc too?
yes you can
