Oh hey humans! Please let me know if this video is of interest or not. This is the first time I've ever done a video like this so it's a bit of an experiment. If you like it...I shall continue talking about topics like these. What did you like/not like about the vid? K byyyeee
Sorelle Amore It’s really helpful to see the background of a TH-cam and work life - specifically the financial side of things because nobody talks about it. It also provides great advice for young entrepreneurs xx
Que material tan genial el que produces. So good to discover your channel!!! love Caesy to so thats how i found your Vlog. Im not Caesy but if you como to paris lets make some good videos ! have a nice day !
Screw the stereotypical corporate looking men that teach people about money and investment. I don't need you in a suit to see that you are a smart individual who is spreading knowledge across a plethora of topics. Not just photography. You are hands down my favorite youtube and I'm glad I discovered you.
Agreed. I'd much rather learn from entrepreneurial spirits like Sorelle. I wish she was featured in my high school instead of the boring people they had come in. Our world is heading towards solo-preneurs!
I don't see your point? Yes she doesn't wear a suit but she might aswell have. Because she repeat the exact same neo liberal discourse as the corporate men on wall street.
@gaju nice hypocritical to dismiss these men because of their outfit(which is just the normal work outfit in many fields) when they are saying pretty much all the same points Sorelle but usually going way deeper than just "be smart with your money and learn". I think it is a good motivational video about money management but I suggest to buy some books(written probably by men in suits) to follow up.
Would LOVE LOVE LOVE more videos like this. I think the best tips were not to confuse needs with desires, not to spend more money just because you're making more money, and not to buy things you can't afford. I'm guilty of all three of these, unfortunately. What I would LOVE to see--and maybe you won't want to do this because it IS quite personal, but maybe you won't mind, idk what your boundaries are--is a breakdown of how YOU make money. Like, how much of your income comes from anything out of ad revenue, sponsorships, your presets and advanced selfie university, any products that you sell, etc. Like for you personally, where does it all come from and HOW did you learn to make money in that way? What led up to it? And what can we do to follow a similar path? What are the skills that YOU have that directly contribute to you being able to have this lifestyle?
Hexa Fleet You pretty Nuts to belive People ho always scholl off there New stuff they gat right an Camera,to want you also to gat more !Thats how they make Fallover,this lady here is a Fast Talker has no Peace in her mind,and has nothing I need!You are all blendet by more stuff and Money and eating out,and getting Stuff and Sex!All Nuts!And and And it is never in uff!
I am a banker and do financial advisory as a hobby. The things you said are very well presented and should be taken care by everyone trying to make money. I hope people follow them and progress in their life.
Yo PROPS for identifying that school doesn't teach us how to generate income or how to be financially independent. Like you said, you gotta speak money into existence, LAW Of ATTRACTION
I loooooved the part that said "Luck is hard work meets opportunity", it's soooooo true! I like a quote from an IG account i follow about astrology that goes: "Dreams are not fulfilled, Dreams are worked on". I agree that maybe 20% of things are opportunity, timing, choices, but the other 80% is all hard work, it is so important for people to recognize that things don't just happen and a certain kind of lifestyle is not a magical blessing, it is the result of what we put out there and our work. Looving your videos, you're such a HUGE inspiration! Thanks for doing what you do and not being afraid to show us it's ok to live by your own rules. Love! ♥️
Videos like these help me on a whole different level than expected: it shifts my perspective on coming back to the small town and living simply in a small flat. Of course I cherished my home before and rationally I knew how much money I safe, but now I *celebrate* these decisions even more and I feel more at ease - because in coming back there lies even greater freedom. Wow. Thank you!
This video was super helpful. My wife and I are currently in the process of trying to simplify our life and pursue our passions and this video was very insightful. I grew up in a family that didn’t talk about money and I was thrown into the money making world with my first job. No experience or instruction obviously lead to failure. Now as I get older I’m taking better hold of my finances and man is it a daunting task! But what stood out to me from your video was the “you have to pay yourself” aspect. I think it does a lot for your future but also your mentality. Knowing your setting aside money for you makes the work and hustle worth it. Otherwise it gets blown on crap you don’t need or bills that you have to pay and you feel hollow. So I will definitely be incorporating that into my life and I look forward to the positive results financially but also mentally. Thank you for sharing and keep up the good work! ✌️
Great topic for millennials Sorelle. Certainly hard navigating the financial world in a world where everything online wants our attention & our dollars
This was the first ever finance related video for me and it changed my mind completely. It made me rethink my whole relationship with money and made me learn to invest in my future, not only in my future wardrobe… so well presented, no raised finger of “you must do so and so”, but with your typicsl smile. Thank you thank you thank you!!!
Please do more videos like this! For me, someone who just entered adulthood, videos like this are sources where i know i can learn a lot from. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us!
I absolutely loved this. There are so many things like this, when and how to get sponsorship deals, figuring a bid for a photography project, etc. SO MANY THINGS that are necessary, but most of the people who know about it won't talk about it. Your work is amazing, LOVE the videos and your style and thank you SO MUCH for doing these videos!
I love you so much ❤️ I’m going to check out KC’s routine because spending time wisely is my thing and also just do what I love because my parents basically went to work and did their responsibilities and nothing else, no fun or happiness because of stress and an old school mindset! I love being creative and have since I left the womb so I know it’s my calling!
I really like the "pay yourself first" tip. Recently I've become much more serious about saving, and I've been so amazed at how fast the money can build up when I prioritise saving. I enjoy your alternative approach to life: no typical 9-5 job, no house, no mortgage. The way you live challenges a lot of societal norms, and as someone who has just finished uni and is dreading entering "adult life" (which is really a myth haha) I'm very encouraged to see someone who has figured out how to "hack the system".
Sorelle - people always tell me they are so impressed with my ability to vlog in public. What they don’t know is that vlogging in public is easy, recording a segment in front of your friends/family/boyfriend that is hard - AND YOU CRUSH THAT.
2021, still rewatching this video to see if I missed something the last times. It changed the way I saw money at the moment I entered adulthood and eventually changed my life as well. Thanks for that Sorelle 🖤
*Procrastination has to leave the building.* Thank you so much for making this video! It was so much like a pep talk for me. I could relate to every single one of your points especially about procrastination. I've been struggling with it for four months now and because of everything you said here I'm all psyched up to move and start making that money for more freedom 💕
i'm always thankful for your video's sorelle. while growing up my parents had money problems and as a high sensitive kid i took over their painbody and became money anxious. as a little kid my biggest wish was to be happy and i related that to independance of money. which in a sense is true, but it's not about the money itself. i never pursued in photography because i was afraid of the 'insecure job future'. after taking some time off from school etc to heal myself i lost that painbody and fear of the future. somehow money has always been flowing for me. i've worked damn hard in my life(since age 11), i've spend it wisely and now(at age 22) it's time for me to focus on my passions and create an income from that! photography, youtube and instagram🙏 i share about mental health, intuitive living and traveling. especially mental health awareness is important to me!
I love how you are so willing to talk about the things/topics that a lot of people want to hear about - i can't believe its so hard to find the kind of information that you are so lovingly sharing
It was soooo helpful!!! Thank you, I'm ON MY WAY to that freaking FINANCIAL FREEDOM. Thank you Sorelle, YOU rock it sooo hard!!! thank you for pushing us to believe in ourselves and work our asses to have everything we want. I appreciate you so much.
I loved it. Still feel a little sick when I think about money and all the things associated with it, but I know it’s an energy and tool, and I want to learn how to let it be a positive energy and tool that allows me to take care of my self, build the life I crave, and help others.
This piece had some killer points!!! It was something that was really easy to connect with. Thanks Sorelle for putting in the time to make this video!!!
As an aspiring creative entrepreneur, I found this so helpful! I love your advice about the importance of paying yourself first. It’s an empowering philosophy 🙏🏻
I’m an actress and the Hollywood struggle is hard so much to a point I feel like all I do it put in to business materials with no ROI and I’ve been getting fed up. Watching your videos has inspired me to again start writing/creating my own films but more importantly you really inspired me to put in the hard work to learning photography (stills and video). Before I was always so against learning new skills, I was like I need to just focus on acting blah blah. Well I’ve reached my breaking point; I want to create and tell stories and not continue to work in the food industry anymore. And the only way I’m gonna do that is to learn new skills that benefit me around as an actor and storyteller. So right now I’m working to save for a camera and laptop and in the meantime working on becoming a better writer. My goal is to be a bts videographer with my bf and then a photographer to earn money. And for myself I want to make travel videos with a fictional storytelling aspect 😏. So thank you for showing me I can do it all and still be an actress. The point at the end of the day is to tell stories. I’m so nervous and excited and scared! Haha
How to say thank you for your selfless approach to helping others find and reach their dreams!!!! Blessings and many happy wishes to you where ever you go
I really enjoyed this video! More people should be talking about this, especially the save 10%, pay off 20%. I learned this concept when reading the Richest man in Babylon' and it has changed my life ever since.
I love your mindset first! I came to you because Casey btw! I'm from Colombia but I live in NYC! The real wealth is get balance in all our areas in life so keep this up! Hugs!!!
This topic is a huge factor of why I am still even online so I appreciate very much! I want to be my own boss and this video has inspired me to be a little more creative with my ventures. Some crazy amazing events have been occurring in my life that are convincing me I need to start a TH-cam channel. I might be procrastinating, I might be overcautious, but I definitely feel one step closer. Thank you!
I really hope you see this. Most of us are following you for you and your amazing personality. We like to see the backgrounds of the places your at! You're entertaining and so inspiring no matter what you post. We are following you for you and most of us are more than happy to take this journey with you. We want to see where it goes as much as you do!
I wish more influencers would give advice as helpful as yours! I think people need to get away from the idea that money is evil and switch the language over to money is necessary and good in the right hands and used in a smart way. Please do more like these! Also, digging that new hair cut girl.
Love the piece about money in the beginning I literally just talked about that! We shouldn't be ashamed to want financial freedom. I grew up middle class and a series of unfortunate events led me to some of the darkest times in my life. I will *never* stop until I can take care of my family and inspire others to do the same. Like uncle ben said "with great power comes great responsibility" 🕷
I LOVE how you just throw yourself into topics that you're not known for. Just you being able to see that you were getting so deep into the self-portraits and photography tutorials and pulling yourself out. LOVE IT! These videos are awesome Sorelle. KEEP DOING YOU!
Great vid. I just hate when people say money is evil. I also hate when people dont clarify, when saying money isnt evil, that the LOVE of money is evil. Money driving you to succeed is great but when money become the utmost importance, say over your fellow mans well being then that is evil. When someone chooses a path for money knowing it hurts another human. That is sad and evil. Human trafficking, live organ harvesting, Harmakia etc.
The point about having money is not to look like you have money but to have the most options in life available to you. Eleven thumbs up for this video. More please.
A few months late but... I'm a full time traveller since one and a half year (and fellow youtuber) and I LOOVE this video. The first part in particular. When it comes to the actual tips, I find them good but I'm not really going to take anything with me because what you invite to do is basically saving more and spending less and I'm the master of it. What I'm weak at is making money. And I'm watching your videos on the topic cause you give amazing insights.
Thank you for this video! Very concise and clear and motivating. I have just started seriously saving two months ago (after years of squandering a good pay on living lavishly) - and I am ready to learn a lot more from you - what do you invest in, tricks for saving money, how to work at an office and manage to build your own career/business at the same time, etc. Love your work, keep it up!
Yeah, this was def helpful. Procrastination is such a self-destructive habit that I've had difficulties shaking off, but it doesn't have to be so difficult. Stop making excuses for myself and just do it. Get those things done, bc if not, then I won't reach those goals of mine.
Thank you so much for this video! My money mindset has been so warped for so long and I've only just started to shift it. Your video has been perfect timing. More please!
Thank you so much. I’m a creator of many forms and recently lost my job due to being creative which got me thinking of being my own boss and taking my freedom back is all I want!
My family has struggled with money all my life. I’ve definitely been burnt by the bad decisions of others many many times, but this gave me hope that I can take control of my future financial life and live the life I want for myself
LOVE the "Richest man in Babylon!"... Girl your honesty drives me! I've just started out as a digital nomad and the process requires real commitment! thoroughly enjoying myself, and can't wait to see what the future holds! hope to meet you someday. Much Love!
"You are a Badass" + "You are a Badass at Making Money" were some of the best books I've ever read! I would totally recommend them to just about anyone! 🌻 ❤️🌷 Thanks for the awesome video Sorelle!
The traveling version of Dave Ramsey 😂 I liked it. I would to see what steps helped you grow as a content creator or how was your experience and what you had to mentality prepare for when you made the jump.
Love it! Yes, why is this not a standard area to be taught at a younger age? It's taken me ages and lots of mistakes to get smarter about money, I wish I had been taught these things when I was younger. Thanks for putting the video out. Not only do we get to learn stuff, but we get you look at your beautiful face while doing it:)Yaye
My digital nomad business is partially based around teaching people about personal finance. I actually work with high schoolers and college students in my free time because it absolutely pisses me off that we don't take this stuff seriously. Great presentation! Only thing I would argue is that learning investing comes much further down the line. Learning about retirement and index funds is actually pretty simple, and that's where that 10% (minimum, really you want like 20% at least) is going anyhow. Oh, and I would have loved if you touched on having an emergency fund on place so we can start changing the fact that the majority of people can't survive an unexpected charge or loss of income. P.S. I'm not going back to that side of Bali either, haha.
Thanks, Sorelle, I have been following you for the last few weeks and love all your videos. Been binge watching ;P I dig the 8 lessons and walking away with the 70%- 20% -10% (live - payback - save). Definitely going to start using that simple guideline. I recently resigned from my day job and upping my skills to take on a life of TiiiiiiiiMe! because time is precious and we all deserve to have fun-filled, growing experiences with our time.
Money talk has always made me so uncomfortable haha. But I love videos like this. Money isn't evil, I think what makes me feel weird is that I get embarrassed that I'm not making/saving enough. Thank you for this video!
I’ve been in college for a year now, and I’m turning 20 soon. I am studying in adventure tourism and have no clue where I want to go after this year. I will use this video to help myself go from college, to my next destination. I don’t have a lot of money but I want to work towards making money with photography. I’ve been improving in my style of photography. I really liked the videos you have been uploading recently. I noticed you have been changing in the last couple months. I like the constant style of what you channel provides, I like your style. Thank you :)
You have made your finest video. You have given so many people real information. If I had had this information when I was younger I could have possibly been able to make a better life for myself. The one area I disagree with is the area of opportunity. Someone once said, creativity is distributed equally, but opportunity is not. I have worked very hard my entire life, become well educated, learned what I could and worked however I needed to to be able to thrive. I tried my best to make a good plan, reach my goals, and go through the doors that would allow myself to thrive, but they all seemed to slam shut with no other way to that point. So I would try a different approach, a different plan, a different field, etc. So many slammed doors. So many periods of unemployment/underemployment. I barely survived and now am disabled and can't do much work. I'm not trying to sound like a sad sack, but I just need to say some of us try as hard as we can and it just doesn't work.
The best thing I’ve learnt from my parents was 1. Paying of debts ASAP and 2. Only buy things if you can buy the outright (unless it’s something like a house or car, but even then they have only bought cars outright) and if you absolutely can’t buy things outright that are a necessity then follow #1. I love these videos. I’m still living at home and attending university here in Canberra. I’m very very fortunate to have no expenses apart from parking at uni, and my phone bills. All of my money goes into savings and I avoid spending it at all costs. And my rule is that if I am buying a new shirt, pair of shoes or jeans then I HAVE TO sell or donate something from my closet (I think you’ve mentioned that before too). Good habits start young. This video was AWESOME!
This video was so encouraging! I’ve struggled financially for years and especially in the creative field it can be discouraging when you don’t have the gear you want. Definitely makes me feel better about where I’m at and where I’m going.
You know I would love nothing more than to sit in a café on a rainy day and giggle with you over coffee and fancy wines. And of course talk world travel but most emphasis on being dorks.
when you talk about things that you're passionite about and have knowledge of, you can't miss girl. i watch your video 'cause i want to learn something, to get inspired and motivated to be/do better. and honestly, i have no interest at all at taking better selfies :D
YES YES!! Love seeing your videos and I appreciate when creators like you are so honest to their audience, because it's important to understand that skills combined with passion will attract that money and you don't need to sacrifice your well-being by doing something you don't like doing it.. Passive income should definitely be taught in schools!! Thanks for sharing your skills and thoughts!!!
I haven't even finished your interesting video, and I already loooooooove it so much! ❤❤❤❤ Sorelle you are an amazing genuine human being! Everything you do is interesting
Sorelle..very happy you did this vlog! you were right on...its sad that most people esp women do not study finance more seriously..they don't even talk about it and it needs to be out there! Having money IS freedom..it doesn't grow on trees..You have to learn about it and not be afraid of it..I learned on my own when i was in my thirties, studied the markets etc, lived a frugal life but still went on vacations and travelled the world. Retired early fifties. I do what I want now..Freedom! no cubicles! Keep making these vlogs..we are all one. Carry on sister!
This was confirmation for my journey! Literally everything you said in this video I’m in the pursuit of doing. I have been following your advice for probably about a year and this just concluded it all for me. I’m currently getting on my connecting flight to Bali and then Thailand later on. One of my main reasons why I choose these to countries for my first destination as a digital nomad was so that I can network with more digital nomads and learn this lifestyle. I’m definitely taking the spending formula away from this video! THANK YOU!
Love this particular talk about money and building wealth. Thank you♥️🔥. I decided to pay myself 40 percent but people around me are discouraging. They think I should share with them blah blah (I’m African) which always sets me back.
I recognize all these places in Canggu!! I am here as well and would LOVE to meet you!! Are you planning some meeting with the people that LOVE your content here in Bali?? Much love girlll
Yes, I love this topic, please do more!!! And I am happy to see you in the places I've been! I've been living + building my lifestyle with your techniques! Thank you for sharing these! xo
I really enjoyed this video. It's cool to see a different scene for each point you made. I like the idea of paying yourself 10 percent, 20 percent to debt, and living off 70. I also live a life where the day is very busy so there's no time to procrastinate.
Best thing about this vid? You're absolutely right. Worst thing about this vid? I SWEAR I had a shirt just like that, which I LOVED, and I literally cannot remember what happened to it, like it may yet be hiding in some drawer of shelf for me to find when I'm too fat to wear it. But yes, build wealth, it's not evil - it's only evil when you use it to keep others down.
I love these rules, although I didn't get why is it bad to earn more to spend more. If you make more, your new 10% income increase as well, so you keep saving even more than before, and also can spend more money, because 90% of the rest increased as well. I also have the rule "always treat yourself first", which is a kind of "always pay yourself first", but this is % of income that you can spend on something you want/like, not necessarily need. I've seen many families with mothers who worked so hard, and they were only buying clothes for kids, only buy new tech devices for kids, all the best is always for kids. It is surprisingly common for post-soviet countries' people. In my family, we had another rule: a person who earns money always gets something for themselves, otherwise they don't see a point of earning it and soon may slip into a depression, and then nobody's going to earn anything. Of course, it's not a situation "I'm gonna eat today because I am a breadwinner, and my kid is staying hungry", it's more of "maybe my kid doesn't need the new iPhone model asap if I still wear a coat with holes I've bought 7 years ago."
I really enjoyed the video, I've been saving 10% for over a year and I kind of stopped for few months and this video made me realize that what I've doing was so great and I should keep doing it
Loved this!! I wish money wasn’t such a taboo topic to talk about and more importantly I wish this was talked about in schools. Money is a huge part of most people’s lives and it’s so important to talk about it and be educated
Oh hey humans! Please let me know if this video is of interest or not. This is the first time I've ever done a video like this so it's a bit of an experiment. If you like it...I shall continue talking about topics like these. What did you like/not like about the vid? K byyyeee

Que material tan genial el que produces. So good to discover your channel!!! love Caesy to so thats how i found your Vlog. Im not Caesy but if you como to paris lets make some good videos ! have a nice day !
I'd love to see more content like this. Don't wanna do the 9 - 5 thing forever, you know?
Screw the stereotypical corporate looking men that teach people about money and investment. I don't need you in a suit to see that you are a smart individual who is spreading knowledge across a plethora of topics. Not just photography. You are hands down my favorite youtube and I'm glad I discovered you.
Ahhh so well said!
Bit sexist

making money as a digital nomad is important for the long term and with so many lessons to learn I love hearing from everyone
Johnny Ray's Digital Nomad Lifestyle 🔥🔥🔥💯
This was awesome! Great video. We all need to learn how to handle and grow money. Such an important topic
THIS is the kind of video I wanna watch on your channel ❤️
Roberta Dall'Alba SAME!!❤️❤️
Hector Alejandro Guerrero! I could watch them again and again 😂💖 I’ve watched this twice, same with Casey’s routine
I loooooved the part that said "Luck is hard work meets opportunity", it's soooooo true!
I like a quote from an IG account i follow about astrology that goes:
"Dreams are not fulfilled, Dreams are worked on".
I agree that maybe 20% of things are opportunity, timing, choices, but the other 80% is all hard work, it is so important for people to recognize that things don't just happen and a certain kind of lifestyle is not a magical blessing, it is the result of what we put out there and our work.
Looving your videos, you're such a HUGE inspiration! Thanks for doing what you do and not being afraid to show us it's ok to live by your own rules. Love! ♥️
I am so happy you made this video, you have so many great points!

This was the first ever finance related video for me and it changed my mind completely. It made me rethink my whole relationship with money and made me learn to invest in my future, not only in my future wardrobe… so well presented, no raised finger of “you must do so and so”, but with your typicsl smile. Thank you thank you thank you!!!
Please do more videos like this! For me, someone who just entered adulthood, videos like this are sources where i know i can learn a lot from. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us!
I absolutely loved this. There are so many things like this, when and how to get sponsorship deals, figuring a bid for a photography project, etc. SO MANY THINGS that are necessary, but most of the people who know about it won't talk about it. Your work is amazing, LOVE the videos and your style and thank you SO MUCH for doing these videos!
yes, Money brings freedom. and for freedom, you have to work hard
Lovin' your new hair! Okay, that's besides the point.
I love you so much ❤️
I’m going to check out KC’s routine because spending time wisely is my thing and also just do what I love because my parents basically went to work and did their responsibilities and nothing else, no fun or happiness because of stress and an old school mindset! I love being creative and have since I left the womb so I know it’s my calling!

I loved the essayist approach of this video. Good contextualization, good arguments. It really makes me think.
*Procrastination has to leave the building.*
Thank you so much for making this video! It was so much like a pep talk for me. I could relate to every single one of your points especially about procrastination. I've been struggling with it for four months now and because of everything you said here I'm all psyched up to move and start making that money for more freedom 💕
i'm always thankful for your video's sorelle.
while growing up my parents had money problems and as a high sensitive kid i took over their painbody and became money anxious. as a little kid my biggest wish was to be happy and i related that to independance of money.
which in a sense is true, but it's not about the money itself.
i never pursued in photography because i was afraid of the 'insecure job future'.
after taking some time off from school etc to heal myself i lost that painbody and fear of the future. somehow money has always been flowing for me. i've worked damn hard in my life(since age 11), i've spend it wisely and now(at age 22) it's time for me to focus on my passions and create an income from that! photography, youtube and instagram🙏 i share about mental health, intuitive living and traveling. especially mental health awareness is important to me!
My newest, favorite-st content creator. I’m obsessed by your content, Sorelle!
I love how you are so willing to talk about the things/topics that a lot of people want to hear about - i can't believe its so hard to find the kind of information that you are so lovingly sharing
It was soooo helpful!!! Thank you, I'm ON MY WAY to that freaking FINANCIAL FREEDOM. Thank you Sorelle, YOU rock it sooo hard!!! thank you for pushing us to believe in ourselves and work our asses to have everything we want. I appreciate you so much.
I loved it. Still feel a little sick when I think about money and all the things associated with it, but I know it’s an energy and tool, and I want to learn how to let it be a positive energy and tool that allows me to take care of my self, build the life I crave, and help others.
Nice to see someone so vibrant can talk about money in a wise way. Normally money feels boring. You made it sound interesting.
This piece had some killer points!!! It was something that was really easy to connect with. Thanks Sorelle for putting in the time to make this video!!!
As an aspiring creative entrepreneur, I found this so helpful! I love your advice about the importance of paying yourself first. It’s an empowering philosophy 🙏🏻
I’m an actress and the Hollywood struggle is hard so much to a point I feel like all I do it put in to business materials with no ROI and I’ve been getting fed up. Watching your videos has inspired me to again start writing/creating my own films but more importantly you really inspired me to put in the hard work to learning photography (stills and video). Before I was always so against learning new skills, I was like I need to just focus on acting blah blah. Well I’ve reached my breaking point; I want to create and tell stories and not continue to work in the food industry anymore. And the only way I’m gonna do that is to learn new skills that benefit me around as an actor and storyteller. So right now I’m working to save for a camera and laptop and in the meantime working on becoming a better writer. My goal is to be a bts videographer with my bf and then a photographer to earn money. And for myself I want to make travel videos with a fictional storytelling aspect 😏. So thank you for showing me I can do it all and still be an actress. The point at the end of the day is to tell stories. I’m so nervous and excited and scared! Haha
That's actually how I felt when I was in Canggu last year! Cheers for taking the time to film in so many locations. I know how much time it takes!
The most important topic for achieving freedom that seems to go unnoticed. I love this video! super helpful.
Pleaaase keep on talking about that subject!! It is so so important for everyone! 😍❤
This is interesting! QUESTION: Where do you keep your primary bank account? and, in which country do you pay taxes?
How to say thank you for your selfless approach to helping others find and reach their dreams!!!! Blessings and many happy wishes to you where ever you go
I really enjoyed this video! More people should be talking about this, especially the save 10%, pay off 20%. I learned this concept when reading the Richest man in Babylon' and it has changed my life ever since.
I love your mindset first! I came to you because Casey btw! I'm from Colombia but I live in NYC! The real wealth is get balance in all our areas in life so keep this up! Hugs!!!
I love the way you explained all of this and filmed it while still looking like you were enjoying your day 😊
This topic is a huge factor of why I am still even online so I appreciate very much! I want to be my own boss and this video has inspired me to be a little more creative with my ventures. Some crazy amazing events have been occurring in my life that are convincing me I need to start a TH-cam channel. I might be procrastinating, I might be overcautious, but I definitely feel one step closer. Thank you!
I really hope you see this. Most of us are following you for you and your amazing personality. We like to see the backgrounds of the places your at! You're entertaining and so inspiring no matter what you post. We are following you for you and most of us are more than happy to take this journey with you. We want to see where it goes as much as you do!
For the first time in my life I have heard someone say "I believe in you" 😢 Thank you so much Sorelle ❤️
I wish more influencers would give advice as helpful as yours! I think people need to get away from the idea that money is evil and switch the language over to money is necessary and good in the right hands and used in a smart way. Please do more like these!
Also, digging that new hair cut girl.
What i'm gonna start doing straight away is the "10% for yourself" rule. I loved this Video❤
Love the piece about money in the beginning I literally just talked about that! We shouldn't be ashamed to want financial freedom.
I grew up middle class and a series of unfortunate events led me to some of the darkest times in my life. I will *never* stop until I can take care of my family and inspire others to do the same.
Like uncle ben said "with great power comes great responsibility" 🕷
I LOVE how you just throw yourself into topics that you're not known for. Just you being able to see that you were getting so deep into the self-portraits and photography tutorials and pulling yourself out. LOVE IT! These videos are awesome Sorelle. KEEP DOING YOU!
Great vid. I just hate when people say money is evil. I also hate when people dont clarify, when saying money isnt evil, that the LOVE of money is evil. Money driving you to succeed is great but when money become the utmost importance, say over your fellow mans well being then that is evil. When someone chooses a path for money knowing it hurts another human. That is sad and evil. Human trafficking, live organ harvesting, Harmakia etc.
The point about having money is not to look like you have money but to have the most options in life available to you. Eleven thumbs up for this video. More please.
A few months late but... I'm a full time traveller since one and a half year (and fellow youtuber) and I LOOVE this video. The first part in particular. When it comes to the actual tips, I find them good but I'm not really going to take anything with me because what you invite to do is basically saving more and spending less and I'm the master of it. What I'm weak at is making money. And I'm watching your videos on the topic cause you give amazing insights.
Thank you for this video! Very concise and clear and motivating. I have just started seriously saving two months ago (after years of squandering a good pay on living lavishly) - and I am ready to learn a lot more from you - what do you invest in, tricks for saving money, how to work at an office and manage to build your own career/business at the same time, etc. Love your work, keep it up!
Omgosh sounds just like the advice in " you are a badass at making money " which I love! No wonder why I love your channel! Keep being inspirational!
Thank you for sharing! I love the live off of 70% + save 10% + pay back 20% = Freedom. That's really going to help me out.
Yeah, this was def helpful. Procrastination is such a self-destructive habit that I've had difficulties shaking off, but it doesn't have to be so difficult. Stop making excuses for myself and just do it. Get those things done, bc if not, then I won't reach those goals of mine.
Thank you Sorelle. I really really needed this. Definitely the strategy of eliminating procrastination is in full effect now.
So helpful! I love the comment about build a routine that won’t give u the option of procrastination.
Thank you so much for this video! My money mindset has been so warped for so long and I've only just started to shift it. Your video has been perfect timing. More please!
Thank you so much. I’m a creator of many forms and recently lost my job due to being creative which got me thinking of being my own boss and taking my freedom back is all I want!
My family has struggled with money all my life. I’ve definitely been burnt by the bad decisions of others many many times, but this gave me hope that I can take control of my future financial life and live the life I want for myself
LOVE the "Richest man in Babylon!"... Girl your honesty drives me! I've just started out as a digital nomad and the process requires real commitment! thoroughly enjoying myself, and can't wait to see what the future holds! hope to meet you someday. Much Love!
"You are a Badass" + "You are a Badass at Making Money" were some of the best books I've ever read! I would totally recommend them to just about anyone! 🌻 ❤️🌷
Thanks for the awesome video Sorelle!
The traveling version of Dave Ramsey 😂 I liked it. I would to see what steps helped you grow as a content creator or how was your experience and what you had to mentality prepare for when you made the jump.
Love it! Yes, why is this not a standard area to be taught at a younger age? It's taken me ages and lots of mistakes to get smarter about money, I wish I had been taught these things when I was younger. Thanks for putting the video out. Not only do we get to learn stuff, but we get you look at your beautiful face while doing it:)Yaye
My digital nomad business is partially based around teaching people about personal finance. I actually work with high schoolers and college students in my free time because it absolutely pisses me off that we don't take this stuff seriously.
Great presentation! Only thing I would argue is that learning investing comes much further down the line. Learning about retirement and index funds is actually pretty simple, and that's where that 10% (minimum, really you want like 20% at least) is going anyhow. Oh, and I would have loved if you touched on having an emergency fund on place so we can start changing the fact that the majority of people can't survive an unexpected charge or loss of income.
P.S. I'm not going back to that side of Bali either, haha.
This is very interesting and a good guide especially when you said "Pay your self first" vs. "Savings". Paying self is a good realization for me.
Thanks, Sorelle, I have been following you for the last few weeks and love all your videos. Been binge watching ;P I dig the 8 lessons and walking away with the 70%- 20% -10% (live - payback - save). Definitely going to start using that simple guideline. I recently resigned from my day job and upping my skills to take on a life of TiiiiiiiiMe! because time is precious and we all deserve to have fun-filled, growing experiences with our time.
Money talk has always made me so uncomfortable haha. But I love videos like this. Money isn't evil, I think what makes me feel weird is that I get embarrassed that I'm not making/saving enough. Thank you for this video!
I’ve been in college for a year now, and I’m turning 20 soon. I am studying in adventure tourism and have no clue where I want to go after this year. I will use this video to help myself go from college, to my next destination. I don’t have a lot of money but I want to work towards making money with photography. I’ve been improving in my style of photography. I really liked the videos you have been uploading recently. I noticed you have been changing in the last couple months. I like the constant style of what you channel provides, I like your style. Thank you :)
I'm always trying to learn more about money because I'm so bad at saving so I loved this!
I would love more 💃🏾
You have made your finest video. You have given so many people real information. If I had had this information when I was younger I could have possibly been able to make a better life for myself. The one area I disagree with is the area
of opportunity. Someone once said, creativity is distributed equally, but opportunity is not. I have worked very hard my entire life, become well educated, learned what I could and worked however I needed to to be able to thrive. I tried my best to make a good plan, reach my goals, and go through the doors that would allow myself to thrive, but they all
seemed to slam shut with no other way to that point. So I would try a different approach, a different plan, a different
field, etc. So many slammed doors. So many periods of unemployment/underemployment. I barely survived and now
am disabled and can't do much work. I'm not trying to sound like a sad sack, but I just need to say some of us try as
hard as we can and it just doesn't work.
Hi Sorelle, first of all thank you for being so honest about how you got to where you are. This video was very helpful.
The best thing I’ve learnt from my parents was 1. Paying of debts ASAP and 2. Only buy things if you can buy the outright (unless it’s something like a house or car, but even then they have only bought cars outright) and if you absolutely can’t buy things outright that are a necessity then follow #1. I love these videos. I’m still living at home and attending university here in Canberra. I’m very very fortunate to have no expenses apart from parking at uni, and my phone bills. All of my money goes into savings and I avoid spending it at all costs. And my rule is that if I am buying a new shirt, pair of shoes or jeans then I HAVE TO sell or donate something from my closet (I think you’ve mentioned that before too). Good habits start young. This video was AWESOME!
This video was so encouraging! I’ve struggled financially for years and especially in the creative field it can be discouraging when you don’t have the gear you want. Definitely makes me feel better about where I’m at and where I’m going.
You know I would love nothing more than to sit in a café on a rainy day and giggle with you over coffee and fancy wines. And of course talk world travel but most emphasis on being dorks.
when you talk about things that you're passionite about and have knowledge of, you can't miss girl. i watch your video 'cause i want to learn something, to get inspired and motivated to be/do better. and honestly, i have no interest at all at taking better selfies :D
YES YES!! Love seeing your videos and I appreciate when creators like you are so honest to their audience, because it's important to understand that skills combined with passion will attract that money and you don't need to sacrifice your well-being by doing something you don't like doing it.. Passive income should definitely be taught in schools!!
Thanks for sharing your skills and thoughts!!!
Yes! Thanks for the inspiration! Growing your income is a vital part of the freedom process.
I haven't even finished your interesting video, and I already loooooooove it so much! ❤❤❤❤ Sorelle you are an amazing genuine human being! Everything you do is interesting
Sorelle..very happy you did this vlog! you were right on...its sad that most people esp women do not study finance more seriously..they don't even talk about it and it needs to be out there! Having money IS freedom..it doesn't grow on trees..You have to learn about it and not be afraid of it..I learned on my own when i was in my thirties, studied the markets etc, lived a frugal life but still went on vacations and travelled the world. Retired early fifties. I do what I want now..Freedom! no cubicles! Keep making these vlogs..we are all one. Carry on sister!
Really helpful video Sorelle. I love how you don’t keep all this info to yourself and really try to help others! You’re a blessing👌🏾
Literally zero reasons to keep this info to myself 🤷🏻♀️🕺🏻
Really love this! Sad that it doesn't have more views -- it should!
This was confirmation for my journey! Literally everything you said in this video I’m in the pursuit of doing. I have been following your advice for probably about a year and this just concluded it all for me. I’m currently getting on my connecting flight to Bali and then Thailand later on. One of my main reasons why I choose these to countries for my first destination as a digital nomad was so that I can network with more digital nomads and learn this lifestyle. I’m definitely taking the spending formula away from this video! THANK YOU!
Love this particular talk about money and building wealth. Thank you♥️🔥.
I decided to pay myself 40 percent but people around me are discouraging. They think I should share with them blah blah (I’m African) which always sets me back.
I recognize all these places in Canggu!! I am here as well and would LOVE to meet you!! Are you planning some meeting with the people that LOVE your content here in Bali??
Much love girlll
ciao sorella wild!! se li riconisci voglio che mi ci porti next time
@@WildatEarth Quando vuoi super sorella wild ti aspetto, ce penso io a te
Your videos always inspire me to do better and not to give up and go for what I want in life
Yes, I love this topic, please do more!!!
And I am happy to see you in the places I've been!
I've been living + building my lifestyle with your techniques! Thank you for sharing these! xo
so helpful!!! I'm gonna take away the procrastination part of it. I feel perfectionism has taken a toll on me, time to gooo!!!
I JUST LOVE your hair, shirt, and the 70-20-10 rule!
I absolutely LOVE your hair like this oml!!!
I really enjoyed this video. It's cool to see a different scene for each point you made. I like the idea of paying yourself 10 percent, 20 percent to debt, and living off 70. I also live a life where the day is very busy so there's no time to procrastinate.
Best thing about this vid? You're absolutely right. Worst thing about this vid? I SWEAR I had a shirt just like that, which I LOVED, and I literally cannot remember what happened to it, like it may yet be hiding in some drawer of shelf for me to find when I'm too fat to wear it. But yes, build wealth, it's not evil - it's only evil when you use it to keep others down.
I love these rules, although I didn't get why is it bad to earn more to spend more. If you make more, your new 10% income increase as well, so you keep saving even more than before, and also can spend more money, because 90% of the rest increased as well.
I also have the rule "always treat yourself first", which is a kind of "always pay yourself first", but this is % of income that you can spend on something you want/like, not necessarily need.
I've seen many families with mothers who worked so hard, and they were only buying clothes for kids, only buy new tech devices for kids, all the best is always for kids. It is surprisingly common for post-soviet countries' people. In my family, we had another rule: a person who earns money always gets something for themselves, otherwise they don't see a point of earning it and soon may slip into a depression, and then nobody's going to earn anything. Of course, it's not a situation "I'm gonna eat today because I am a breadwinner, and my kid is staying hungry", it's more of "maybe my kid doesn't need the new iPhone model asap if I still wear a coat with holes I've bought 7 years ago."
I really enjoyed the video, I've been saving 10% for over a year and I kind of stopped for few months and this video made me realize that what I've doing was so great and I should keep doing it
I was needing someone to guide me in this aspect and dang! Here you put this video. Thanks a lot. You inspire me in very ways❤️
I really enjoyed this one Sorelle, was interesting to hear money advise from someone other than a typical business man for a change
Loved this!! I wish money wasn’t such a taboo topic to talk about and more importantly I wish this was talked about in schools. Money is a huge part of most people’s lives and it’s so important to talk about it and be educated
As my husband is fond of saying..."The problem these days is that people have turned their wants into their needs." Great video Sorelle! xo
New hair and a new shirt?? Sorelle is always slaying my life!! Lol
I absolutely love videos like this - encreasing the leeeeearning cuuurve, girl!
