    My wife and I are saving for a down payment on our first house and dining out was always our weakness until we actually did the math. We realized that if we were to just save whatever money we were dining out with we could have our down payment about 6 months faster than if we went to restaurants. 6 MONTHS!

      Becuase a meal is meat, 2 sides, and a bread. That would cost you about 15 dollars at a grocery store. A meal at a casual restaurant is 15 dollars. So it is a wash go out have something unique and different every night.
      However,
      But wait what about breakfast and lunch those are meals to.
      And now the secret leftovers.
      This destroys eating out.

      I always question people on the time thing. I mean...yes your cooking for a family but unless you have 10-20 kids it shouldn't add time. And most meals I cook I'm done in an hour. And no thats not frozen pizza. Thats making thai food. Italian. Etc with actualwhole food ingredients. It does not take long to chop veggies. Whereas It's difficult to go to a restaurant in my area in under an hour. Even my closet one at 10 min away. So I called bs on any claims of saving time. Or at least not enough for it to actually matter.

    Preparing your own food does take time, but the benefits extend far beyond just your physical health or cost savings. Nobody ever talks about the psychological benefits of basic everyday chores, and nothing is more primal than feeding ourselves. Learn to enjoy self-care, chores, and other tasks the current culture doesn't value.

I would STILL spend more on takeout even if I used a BOGO coupon on a single footlong sub for breakfast, lunch, and dinner for all 3 of us. And this is the absolute cheapest option I could think of with a decent amount of decent food.

    I had to go dairy free about 7 years ago and it made eating at home the much better choice. I didn’t even think about the savings but after the first year it was amazing to see the difference. My best advice for meal prep when you’re busy (two jobs myself) is use your food bank aka the freezer and find every type of meal you like that you will eat reheated. If you’re not sure go down the frozen food section and write down all the things that look good. If manufacturers are freezing it you can too. That 8 hours on Sunday then turns into time and money saving in the weeks and months ahead. How many times did you just get takeout because you ran out of time to meal prep? If you had a premade frozen breakfast sandwich and chili your work day meal prep is grab and go.

    Who the heck is spending 13 hours a week grocery shopping and cooking?! 🤣 Especially when grocery pick-up and air fryers are a thing now. I spend maybe 6 hours a week cooking for a family of 5 if everyone's home all day, every day.

    • @Joenzinator
      @Joenzinator 2 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I don't think 13 hours is very far off. Going to 2 grocery stores/week, including travel time, could easily be 3-4 hours. I cook my kids a hot breakfast, and that takes 15 minutes/day. Packing lunches takes 15 minutes / day. Dinner + cleanup takes 45 minutes / day. So that's about 6 hours between Monday and Friday. Weekends you have time to cook longer meals too. I just made an 18 hour brisket that I had to monitor every few hours. It also takes time to do meal planning, organizing the pantry and taking inventory.
      As a single person, it might be worth it to just eat out or buy prepared foods. It's difficult to cook for 1 and not waste food. I have a family of 5, and the cost savings/hour scales. Eating out doesn't cost $15, it costs $75. The ingredients cost $25, so saving $50 by cooking for 45 minutes is a good value prop.

    I’m just frustrated because I watch my money closely and do what the Ramsey team teaches but my income shovel just struggles. I’m just getting tired of working really hard, punching the clock perfectly everyday but not seeing any reward for hard work other than verbal thanks. I’m in very serious high detailed positions, but every job I work at they give very small raises if any and a lot of times I have to put pressure on my bosses to even consider a raise. It’s been like that my last 3 jobs which have been in big corporations. And I just can’t find any job search listed positions to go into that match the skills and talents I have from previous jobs…

    You can cook a very delicious, healthy meal with just using an outside griddle in under 10-15 minutes. Add in an air fryer and crockpot then you can definitely make a better tasting and cheaper meal than any restaurant

    Obvious money advantages aside, nothing of us getting home and then sharing our day with each other while making supper is great. To replace that with having to run over to a fast food joint, where the workers don't even look you in the eye, would be depressing.

    WTH? $100 a month for a family of 4 to eat out? Where we going McDonalds? If you to a sit down, nice resturaunt. Mom and Dad have a drink, you kids are in their teens and too old for kids menu, and tip, you arent walking out for less than $100. I mean guess a pizza place, but you are really relegating families to eating out once a month. A nice meal every 2 weeks, pizza or a simple meal every week out. I would say for a solid middle class family of 4, out of debt, $400 a month would be more realistic as a goal.

    Holddddup. 100 a month for a family of 4??? My brother in Christ, in what alternate universe are groceries that cheap??? I'd believe you if we were talking about half of eating out for groceries or, by your own words and research earlier in the video, a third. Yes, it is cheaper to eat at home, but you're not going to reduce 550 a month of eating out to 100 a month. Maybe to 250, 200, 180 at the lowest end, but not 100.

      I never said a family of 4 eats on $100 a month. They still have a grocery budget. I’m saying their eating out budget goes down to $100, meaning they only eat out once or twice a month.

    Drinks have gotten ridiculous, including non-alcoholic drinks, _the_ exception is McDonald's coffee, especially the senior coffee. I had a double cheeseburger and senior coffee the other day, filling and just over $3.00 total, cant beat that. Also, people like my mom frequently only eat one or two meals a day.

    Often, eating fast food is, indeed, cheaper than eating healthy at home (unless you do actually eat rice and beans, beans and rice). However, it is only cheaper in the short run. The health costs of long-term consumption of fast food is high. So yes, Taco Bueno can make a darn good burrito for cheap, but those hospital bills sure add up, too.

A quick Google says the average cost of one McDonald's cheeseburger is $2.66. Further, Walmart says a head of broccoli is $1.78 a pound. So a person could start a healthy lunch with an apple and a qtr pound of broccoli (which is more than a serving) for about a dollar, and still have over a buck and a half to add some protein and a bit of carbs. And that's JUST compared to the nastiest, cheapest cheeseburger humanity has ever attempted to create. No fries, no softdrink, etc.
