    I went through 45 years saying that the most cash I ever had was $3700.00. But as the beginning of 2022 I'm saving $500.00 a month. and Right now, I'm glad to say I have $7,880.00 so far saved up.

      Hats off to you sir. I’m 32 and I have lived paycheck to paycheck my whole life lol. I am going to start saving also. I was thinking 500 a month at first also but this video has me wanting to try this. Not sure if I have enough to do it but I am going to try. Keep up the great work man.

Saving was hard 😭) but i got hired at a new job today and i WANT/NEED to save money ASAP. I’m tired of living at home omfg.

      @@havingteawiththedevil My advice is for you to stay with parents /home as long as you can while you save. Tell your family you want to save money for a house down payment. I think your family would support you. I had a client whose brother came to the US from Asia. He worked as an orderly in those old homes and in three years saved enough money to put a down payment for a home. He lived with his brother paying a small rent. Then another brother came and went to work at first at a restaurant then then as an orderly. he also stayed with his brother for 2-3 months but he saved a little money and bought an old fan. he then lived in that van while working 60-80 hours a week. He saved $46,000 in a year.

    Are you someone who reads as much as possible about potential investments and asks questions about them? If so, maybe you don't need investment advice. However, if you are busy with work, children, or other responsibilities, or if you feel that you are not knowledgeable enough to invest on your own, seek professional investment advice.

      Speaking of financial freedom, I've been thinking about it a lot and the best option is to invest more because I don't think you can get very far depending on a single source of income.
      Investing can be intimidating for many people because there are so many options and it can be difficult to determine which investments are the right ones. I would like a recommendation if you have any?

    I have been doing a savings plan, where I save 100 notes of every money denomination. So 100 notes
    of the ones, 100 notes of the fives and so on. By the time you collect 100 of every denomination
    you'll wind up with $18,600. I just started and all I have so far is 100 notes of the ones, and
    100 notes of the Fives and started on the tens. Then once I accumulated 100 notes of a particular
    denomination, I'll put a money label around it. Can't wait to save. It's addictive.

    I did something similar to this. I wrote down the number of weeks in a year. I was waitressing at the time. Depending on what I made, I'd check off what I put aside. Did this for about 6 months. I was able to save enough to pay for a new used car, title, tags, new tires, gave it a tune up, tented windows and still had a few thousands $$ left. I did have to displine myself as like to spend money 😉😉 I managed it. It was easier since I was waitress. If I made 100 $ if I didn't need gas or cigarettes I'd put in most of it and kept at least 20 $. Did this twice and second time bought a truck. Then I stopped.

    I cant do the 100 envelope challenged because I am on a very tight fix budget but I decided that if I did it as a month to month challenged for example day one is one dollar and day 31 is $31.00 but when the next month hit I start back at day one is one dollar. Do this for the whole year I can save as much as the 100 day challenged. And for someone who doesn't make a great amount of money I find it would be easier to collect smaller amount over bigger amount of money.

    Great idea and vid … just making sure I understand this.. you have one hundred envelopes but each envelope is labeled $1, $2, $3,$4 and so on thru $100 and when you have extra money 💰 you place that dollar amount in the labeled envelope right? Or do you mean each day you have to find that dollar amount each day for that envelope number ? So lets say its day 5 then I have to
    Get $5 to put in there followed by $6 on day 6.. I am thinking 🤔 of two ways this works so just want to make sure i get this way cool idea right. Thanks !

    I’m very happy to have come across this video. I am closer to retirement than not and have a six figure student loan. This method (and your “twist”) inspires me. So yes, I will be giving this a go. I feel that this is a great way to pay down this debt faster. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

And if employers didn’t provide tuition assistance or you didn’t want to commit the next 5 years to them, you almost had to take out loans. 🤷🏻‍♀️

    What do you think about the checklists that let you choose the amount for the day? End goal is the same but each day you pick a random # and save that. So if you only have $2 on day 30 and haven’t crossed that off, it’s what you save.
