    My parents just got married by a judge. The way they tell it, it was apparently the day of a big football game. The judge walked in, clearly impatient, and said, "Do you? Do you? Wonderful. I now pronounce you man and wife. Now go Badgers." He then threw off his robe, put on a Wisconsin hat, and walked out to the game.

    I think I was in like 8-9 weddings between my 20s and 30s and it got tiresome having to pay for the trips and everything that went along with it. Hilariously enough, out of all my friends who got married, only 2 stayed married...and those were both courthouse marriages that took 10 minutes and I had to witness the paperwork. We went out for a nice lunch afterward with a small group of friends. Everyone that had the big expensive travel wedding with 200+ guests was divorced within 2-3 years. Total waste of money.

      I don't think that is a coincidence. If getting married is to make a commitment to someone you love you don't need to spend a lot. If having a big wedding is to show off how wealthy and important you are how real is the relationship? But I'm biased as I had a very small wedding 😊

    • @VBoo459
      @VBoo459 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      How much you spend to get married isn't correlated to how good the marriage will be. BUT if you're taking out loans and going into financial crisis for a wedding (or anything) thats bound to harm a marriage. I know people who did courthouse and end up still in divorce. My fiance and I are spending 40k on our wedding (we come from big families) and not a penny is from borrowing money, nor is the money harming us since we have the money and we have strategy. Our relationship is based on trust, respect and stability as well as good communication.

    I greatly enjoyed the positivity in this one compared to the usual reactions to bad TikTok advice. I get it - the bad advice really needs to be smacked down, and the cringey scammers draws more clicks - but there needs to carrots to counterbalance the sticks.

    They're right. The most important part is to START investing. Doesn't matter so much the amount, but the habit of investing you develop.
    Watching your balance (s) grow is an addictive feeling. The more you do it, the more you want to do it.
    And even small, consistent, amounts absolutely add up over time.

    I got married at a destination wedding site including a honeymoon over two weeks which was half of an economy wedding in my big city. No family or friends were invited to keep the costs down. Several members of my family were miffed but we were not interested in throwing a party for our wedding. That money went to purchasing a house! Also, my 61 year old self is thrilled to pieces that my early 20's self put away $20 a month in the early 1980s. It was all I could invest back then but given time, boy does money grow! Of course, I increased it when I could but so thankful I put those $20 away every month back then. It truly does make a difference over time.

    We bought a home in 2020, did not have 20% equity so we’ve been paying PMI every month. I called lender to get an appraisal to see if we could drop PMI. We only needed the value to have gone up like 20k to get it dropped off. Well, the original appraisal in 2020 was $370,000. We did not make any updates inside/ just maintenance type stuff. We did a little bit outside but not sure if it counts. Anyways, our new appraisal (came inside and took photos) came in at $550,000. That’s higher than Zillow, Redfin, realtor website estimates. It’s amazing. So in 4 years it went up $180,000! 😮 we live in the Midwest in a suburb with good schools. Not sure how rest of country compares.

    My family does private weddings, immediate family members, and their spouses only no girlfriends no boyfriends then the next day we had a wedding brunch that we catered ourselves for friends. We didn’t register for anything because we were already grown adults . we had a small delicious handmade wedding cake by a local baker and essentially everything else was a giant charcuterie board before these things became popular. I bought my wedding dress in Scottsboro at unclaimed baggage it’s also where I got my wedding jewelry and my wedding shoes, I purchased a used tuxedo, for my husband and my brother lent him a cummerbund and cuff links. I made my own wedding bouquet of dried lavender from Michael’s craft store. I also made my own pearl headband from supplies at that same store.

    $1,800 to rent a huge tent with windows and interior lighting, potluck dinner, bought our own alcohol and soda, bought our own decorations and built them over time. We had a family member become ordained to administer matrimonial duties.
    All in, we spent $2,800 for our wedding and our toddler walked the aisle with the rings that we had custom made from a family member that worked at a custom jeweler for $750 each. So, including the rings we spent $4,300 on our wedding and paid cash for all of it over a years time.
    Don’t go all out on your wedding for $60k like some people. We spent $4,300 and have been happily married for several years now. We have spent more on the honey moon, each anniversary years travel, etc. than anyone else would’ve done just because we didn’t have lingering wedding debt.

    The way people talk about cars depreciating in value is so frustrating because it misses the entire point of owning a car. A car is not an asset, it’s a consumable good that provides a valuable function over its limited lifetime. The fact that you can get back any of the value of a car when you are finished with it is incredible considering how much value it returned to you by serving its function to you as a mode of transportation. Everyone complaining about cars depreciating has lost touch with reality.

    It IS weird, but true for me - tracking budget, net worth, etc. somehow helps with my financial goals. Not really sure how or why...
    As far as the 'forced scarcity' technique, I thinking of implementing a program of saving more and more of my paycheck such my take-home pay gets smaller and smaller to the point that to pay my bills, I'm having to wire out of my brokerage account, (which means I MUST make that account, (instead of my job), take over as my free cash flow generator. So I get 5% raise, but SAVE 10% more, but reduce my dependency on my job as time goes on. This will also make the transition from working at a job, to living off of investments less of a shock when I retire.

My parents gave us $1500 for booze that we returned unopened bottles to Costco and paid a friend who ended up bartending all night a tip of $200. Flip to this year, still married. My cousin spent $20000 on her wedding, it lasted 2 years total.
    Husband and I met in 2016 and bought a house in 2017. I was living at home an saving $750 a paycheck. I stashed away $15000 for a down payment. We bought our 1974 bungalow for $333000. Today our area is going for $400000+.

    Husband and I got married in 2020 (a day before shutdown ). It was small (only close friends and family )in total it cost us 7k. My wedding dress was 150 dollars my husband suit was 100 dollar and we looked fantastic. The money we would have used for a large wedding we used for the down payment of a small house. I also have student loans so that money was also used to pay good chunk of my student debt.
    I want to add that I come from a traditional Latino family who wanted to invite family and friends of their own. Since my family did not pay for the wedding they did not get a say in our wedding. We only wanted people who mattered and contributed to our lives. I didn’t need my dad third cousin or my mom’s boss invited to my wedding.

    I get it about the car payments totally. But the 20/3/8 rule is painful... (As it probably should be.)
    Let's say you are looking at an inexpensive car, $30k. I went to an online calculator and ran the numbers. $30k car, $6k down, it threw in $2,400 in title/reg/fees and a 5% rate for three years. That comes to a payment of about $720/month... Now, it will be paid off in three years, but that's still $720/month for those three years. ;-) And that's just a $30k car, which is pretty low end nowadays...

Its just way more motivational to pay cash

      Let's say someone wants that low end $30k car. So they decide to save up and pay cash for it...
      If they can manage to find and extra $1k per month, that's 30 months and two and a half years of saving before you can get that car.
      Would the average person be able to do that?
      That makes a lot of sense for a used car where you can get the price way down. And I think people should be used WAY more often. I didn't buy a new car until after I bought my house in my mid 30's. But if I would have waited until I had $26k in the bank (It was a Subaru Baja), I wouldn't have been able to save that till I was in my 40s. Financially would have been a better decision, but how realistic is that?
