Hey Leila! One way to think about the chair is to compare it to a mattress. We spend 1/3 of our lives sleeping, so you need a high quality mattress. You probably spend more time in your chair between work and side hustles than you do sleeping! This doesn’t mean it HAS to be expensive, but often the two are correlated. Herman Miller is a quality and sustainable brand, so likely one you could feel really good about. They do have some showrooms, so maybe you can visit a store and try them out. Certain items like this are tough to spend on but I do think they’re worth it in the end. ☺️
This was what I was thinking about when I started considering more expensive chairs so yes you are right! I'm having such a hard time making a decision though lol
Fanfreekintastic girl! Bravo. It feeds my soul to see you thrive and slay your goals. You are doing fantastically. To have that high of a net worth with no home equity is IMPRESSIVE.. Great video!
I would classify a desk chair as a health expense. Back, hip, knee, and neck problems are nothing to mess around with. I spent so much money getting X-rays and MRIs when I had some hip issues a few years ago. Turns out, I was sitting sideways in my car to reach the gas peddle and keep my arms further away from the airbag and steering wheel! Posture and alignment are so important!
What a strong month! Glad to see you bought something for yourself on your trip, especially something meaningful- spending on things you value should be part of a low spend year and not to mention celebrating being debt free!! 🎉🎉
I got a used Herman Miller chair and it SAVED my back! When I switched to remote work, I had a cheap chair and my lower back hurt constantly. Got a herman miller chair and my back was fixed after 2-3 days. I'm short (4'11) and got the B size since A wasnt widely available and I have no issues with it.
I'm 4'10" and I've heard that chair is awesome for our size! However, I usually end up pulling a leg up under me (which I know is bad lol) so I think the mesh would hurt me
@@PersonalFinancewithLeila The mesh is much softer so i think you'll be fine! I wear shorts all the time and it never scratched me. Its an awesome type of mesh. I have the aeron model as a reference
I am so proud of you ❤ you’re literally an inspiration, I wish I could sit down and have coffee with you sometime, I think I would learn a lot haha but you also seem just so down to earth! Keep it up girl!!
Great video! Hopefully, you can find the office chair you want and works for you in the long term. I currently have one from Office Depot from the Serta Smart Layers line. I waited for a sale and used a 30% back in rewards coupon. I also WFH and I love it. The Herman one looks cool though!
somebody has a tan!! 😂 Hope you had an awesome time out of the country! The weeks I go back home to Puerto Rico are the best!! ... Congrats on the goals achieved!! 🎉🎉
If you spend a lot of time sitting a good chair is an investment in your health. Worth the money & the time it takes to find the right one. It’s one of those things your future self will thank you for.
The earnings are incredible 🥳🥳🥳 so much progress in this one video. Keep slaying those goals 💞. Sidenote, where is the tank top you're wearing from? It's super cute 😍
CONGRATS on your student loan goals! It's so great to watch your financial / life successes. Thank you for sharing them - it's so inspiring. I just got public service loan forgiveness this month and am in the middle of my Talent Stacker volunteer project :)
New subscriber appreciate you being open and sharing this info very inspirational 23 years old currently shy of 100k Mark hopefully next year or so I’ll be there looking to be debt free and save for my future self to 💪
The video is a bit too long but it is worth it. I especially like the last summary spreadsheet you made. For young people who are still early in their careers, it is important to know their income vs. your cost (item by item). That would help them in making good financial decisions. Thank you.
Hi Leila! I am so happy you visited South America, South American people we are very warm, cheerful and our countries are full of culture and delicious food so I am so happy you got to experience some of that! I am so happy that you went on a trip. After all the hard work you put into your student loan debt you deserve it! I am so excited for what’s next for you ❤ have an awesome weekend!

I have the same throw pillow cover as you and I am now just realizing I may have heard you on the choose FI podcast. The TH-cam algorithm is spot on.

Doing great Leila! My net worth goal for this year is the same. I started my tracking in 2021. My main goal is to get these student loans down.
Thank you! And love it!
Thank you for being realistic

I should probably go check out an office store and just sit in some chairs!
Hi Leila ! Your videos have helped me so much, just wanted to thank you !❤
Aw thank YOU Jennifer! ❤️

More like a burn 😂 I actually got the burn after getting stuck in Florida (went to a pool lol)
Thank you Inea!
Yay! It’s all GROWTH from here. So exciting. What made you choose the VentureX over the Venture? I’m tempted now!
Thank you!
I liked the 10x on hotels/cars and the extra credits throughout the year. The Venture looks like a great card too tough!
