    Biggest tip to everyone - ALWAYS ask if there is a student discount. So many places have them and no one even knows. Even a lot of online websites have discounts. Local food shops, movie theaters, clothing stores, ect will have student discounts that they don’t necessarily promote.

      This in Argentina is a basic. The cellphones bill went up a lot during this year and we couldn't afford 3000 pesos if we weren't using it at all so my mom called to cancel 2 of the 3 lines we got since my dad needs it and we got 50% off in all the lines. Also did it with the internet company and got a 30% off. If you can negotiate do it and if it still is too much say you will cancel, they know you will find a better promotion somewhere else and will give you anything you want practically.

    Hey! Important advice for under age 18:
    If you're parent/guardian has a credit card, they can add you as an authorized user. Then, when they pay the bill on time every month, by the time you turn 18, *boom* 800+ credit score.

    It is quite unbelievable for the fact that there are kids job you've mentioned which can really earn money.
    In my home (HK), there is no such things, and we cannot work if we are under the age of 16. We will opt for part-time jobs such as working in the convenient stores, but usually most students will tend to earn money as tutors and teach primary students' homework, as academic results are emphasised by the society here.

  • @yuumedreams
    @yuumedreams 4 ปีที่แล้ว +119

    One thing I like doing for the "nice to have" section: as a collector, when I see something nice that's not necessarily in my wishlist atm (also thats not a limited edition cuz that's a whole other thing😂), I wait until the last minute before I decide on buying it. It helps me prevent impulse purchases! I have this mindset that if I do not remember the item after X time, then i really do not want it. I just wanted it in the moment thus more likely ending with an impulse purchase.
    It really helps when there's like a deadline such as pre-order item. If not, can set a personal one like a week or until you get paid. In regards to limited edition items, usually they're announced or leaked in advance; can give you a lot of time to think about it or remember it by the launch date😂

    • @isame0085
      @isame0085 4 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      I also do this. I write the item I want (in the moment) in a list and then wait a few days, a week or even 2 weeks until I look at that list again. If I no longer feel that want for the item, I simply remove it from the list because that means it was something I didn’t really need.

    Older person here: you explained retirement accounts perfectly-- tax advantage means you don't have to pay taxes when you take that money out and you don't have to pay taxes on it each year when you file your taxes (aka, income tax on however much that money has grown ). It's just money that builds over time and is yours when you're old. It's also the money that's going to support you after you retire, so every cent you put in now is directly correlated to the lifestyle you'll live when you're older--If you want to be financially comfortable post-retirement, save save save!

    Love the breakdown Jasmine. I've gradually built my finance and made my first $100k through investing as a single mother juggling work and nursing school, and with what I’ve learned investing, given enough time, solid investments have the potential to double the initial principal amount, but many investors are instead attracted to the lure of high yields in short periods of time despite the possibility of unattractive losses before even getting out. So the onus is on newbies to beware.

    • @marcellafuentes7067
      @marcellafuentes7067 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @Vicky Basnight As long as you diversify your portfolio, any single stock that you own shouldn’t have too much of an impact on your overall return. If it does, buying individual stocks might not be the right choice for you, as you can also try out the Roth IRA or I series bonds. Even index funds will fluctuate, so you can’t get rid of all of your risk, try how you might. With guidance, these are achievable. Levi Clemans, a pro Fiduciary oversees my portfolio.

    Also with optimizing costs: if you have medical bills/expenses that your insurance won’t cover, CALL the billing office at the facility the bill is from (for me it was the radiology center from the ER where I was in school) and explain that your insurance won’t cover the bill. They’ll usually either chop the cost down hella or write off the bill entirely, cuz they mainly charge so much under the assumption that insurance will pay, so, if it won’t, they’ll cut down the cost so they still get something, or write it off entirely so they can just get the paperwork out of their system.

    @coachderrick3736 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    19:22 I can fill in a little here. There are 2 well known types of IRAs, the traditional IRA and the Roth IRA. Both are tax advantaged in different ways. The traditional IRA is an account where you put pre tax dollars into the account. So for example, if you work part-time, you can take money from your paycheck and deposit into an IRA. When tax season rolls around, the taxes withheld from the paycheck with return to you via tax return. You will end up paying ordinary income taxes on each IRA withdrawal after retirement. The early withdrawal penalty is, iirc, 10% on top of ordinary income %.
    With the same scenario, you can instead put your money from your paycheck into a Roth IRA. These funds are recognized as after tax funds and when retirement rolls around and you begin withdrawing cash, you will pay 0 taxes on any of it.
    There is an annual maximum contribution of 6000 for those under 50 as of 2020. And the actual maximum is whichever number is lower of your taxable year's income or 6k. So if you made 5000 after taxes, you can only contribute up to 5000 because you didn't make an additional 1000 to hit 6k that year. And conversely, if you made 10k after taxes, the maximum you can contribute is 6k. Also, both accounts are cumulative. You'd max out your year's contribution with 3k in a Roth IRA and 3k in a traditional IRA.
    A common strategy to determine which account to contribute to is how much you are going to be taxed that fiscal year. If my earnings sit within the first tax bracket, I would put money into the Roth IRA to take advantage of the fact that I'm only being charged 10-12% today instead of a potential 20%+ when I retire with the traditional IRA. If you are already earning in a higher bracket than what you predict you'll be withdrawing at when you retire, it may be more advantageous to defer your taxes via the traditional IRA.
    Another limitation to IRA is that the government tightens contribution limits to any IRA if your year's earnings starts exceeding, for 2020, $124,000. And at $139,000, you wouldn't be allowed to contribute a penny to an IRA.
    There are other small rules regarding spouses and stuff but the main gist is most young people earning within the first 2 tax brackets may be more inclined to go with a Roth IRA.
    IMPORTANT!!! You CANNOT contribute to any IRA unless the earnings are reported. I have to say I don't condone cash only work but if you do cash only work (in a video game... hehe like if you know the meme), this cash is not taxed and doesn't count towards your annual income.

    Budgeting is important to see what direction your money needs to go. Itbis also important to track your spending. It will tell you where you are hemorrhaging money. A business will not guesstimate how much they are taking in nor going out. They do not call it micromanagement of money .They call it business clarity. Personal finance savvy people will tell you to track every penny.

    In a year and a half I'll be a legal adult and it's just so stupid to think about it. It's such a short period of time and I don't think that I (or almost any teenager my age) will "grow" that much to be considered a responsible adult, and I'm high key freaking out about it... I'm so not prepared for "the real world" specially not the world that's facing a pandemic and not the world in which I can't go out alone without a high chance of not returning home just because I'm a girl.
    And then I freak out again when I think about how school ain't gonna teach us anything about being an adult but will make us lose so much time doing useless homeworks (and useless teachers that assign those homeworks just to have us doing something) instead of providing tools that will actually help us be successful adults.
