I am attempting a no buy January. I have decided to try month by month - in my head it seems more achievable to me , we will see ! Good luck to all of us x
That sounds very wise 💕 I am doing 3 months to get in the habit, set the rhythm and save as much as I can , and then hopefully the rest of the year as a low buys will feel like a breeze 🙂 I have belief, we can do it, 2025 is the year we all feel gratitude for what we have 🥰xx
So happy to have you back on TH-cam Eliza! Been silently watching your recent videos but had to comment - am loving the cosy vlogs and no-buy chats ❤ excited for what’s to come for your channel xx
I retired at 52 and honestly, I wish I’d done it sooner. The 9-to-5 grind always steals your freedom for a paycheck that barely scratches the surface. My advice? If you’re in your late 30s or early 40s, start saving for FIRE now (Financial Independence, Retire Early.) And if you’re in your 50s, invest smartly and break free from relying on your job. Market trends, like the Trump Effect, have made millions for many, including me. Stay focused, stay consistent, and remember financial freedom is within reach if you make it a priority.
Working with Lorrie Greta Hillard , a financial advisor, was a game changer. She helped me refine my savings strategy, including retirement planning, and provided expert guidance on investments and budgeting to maximize my savings.
Totally, I’m going part time so I can balance my life and enjoy my time from now and in future too. Working full time is like golden handcuffs, and I want to prioritise my own projects 💕🙏
@@alreadyenough hehe this is so matrix, I was just watching your video and commenting then your comment popped up😂💕 thanks my darling you’re the cutest x
That is awesome!! Congrats!! I’m so excited for this to be the way forward, feels so freeing already!! And this community is already the best one ever 🥰
Time is so much valuable than not having time to do anything you love. I work 4 days a week and it has given me more time for myself to slow down and enjoy life you will definitely enjoy your time and we don't need as much as we think we do ! My financial goal is to save 6 months worth of expenses which i calculated to be around17k in two years long term goal and short term goal is to travel and explore more places and save towards it :) I wanna be more disciplined i am doing cleanse for a month starting next week and also joining gym so some health and financial goals this year! I hope we both achieve our goals this year Amen :)
I love all of this !!! I remember our lovely chat on instagram about it, you are so right, time is everything, and finding meaning in the simple things will bring real peace and I’m so excited… I’m looking forward to getting to end of march and reviewing this no buy and then going onto the low buy 🥰🥰 hope your day is lovely my friend xx
I have just discovered your channel and loving it! 😊I am also doing a no buy/ low buy for 2025. I tried to be mindful of spending in 2024 but mid way through the year, due to certain health issues my spending went through the roof. I now recognise it was a coping mechanism to make myself feel better so I would really like to get it under control. I am also currently listening to Patrick Grants audiobook 'Less' and LOVING it and it has really shifted my mindset. To make the challenge more achievable to me I am alternating each month as a No Buy/ Low Buy, so January is my No buy, February a Low Buy etc Fingers crossed I can stick to it! x🤞🏻🤞🏻
Ooooo I love that!! Alternating it is such a good idea!! I might do that from April actually, so smart!! And thank you so much for taking the time to comment I appreciate it so so much, I am so excited to grow this community, gives me such a warm happy feeling! So thanks so much!! I am making a capsule wardrobe video this weekend and then more intentional living vlogs so I look forward to having more chats 🥰 happy Friday friend x
Reading and watching this no buy content would be like if It's Always Sunny had an episode titled 'The Gang Discovers Saving Money" lol Seems bizarre to me that it's presented as some marvel concept and not the norm, but whatever works is cool too...
I'm also being a bit tongue in cheek here just FYI. It's not meant to be snarky or anything. Consumerism is out of control so anything that begins to curb it is a good thing.
@@JustMe-fo4ev i get you lovely 🙂🙏 yeah definitely, year of big change I feel and I am so excited to grow our community , new vlog should be up tomorrow or Sunday 😘xx

Exactly My point! The 9 to 5 grind is just not worth it the stress and low payoff. What specific steps did you take to break free?

Got it! Thanks for the tip! I was curious, so I looked up Lorrie
I have 5 more years and I can’t wait to retire!
