    Would love to see a breakdown of what you guys are hoping to do/spend for your Europe trip! I am hoping to do something similar within the next few years.

    Hi from Europe:)
    Dont come here in April, it’s very rainy in April here :)
    And Tipp: Go to croatia, beautyful there, rent a Bungalow at a camping place. So cheap and so nice! :)

    As always a great and inspiring video ❤️ What I would like to see is maybe vlog style on how you stick to your buget, do you separate this money further in your accounts and how you work around not having all the funds at the beginning of the month. Creating this spreadsheet and making a zero dollar budget is the first step but I’d like to see how it plays a role in your day to day life

    • @smileycitrus

    i am very bad at keeping consistent with my budget, but you have inspired me since the beginning of this year to at least be mindful of where my money is going, even if i don't keep track of it visually. love how realistic everything is.

    I've always been struggling with finding that balance between saving and spending money, it kinda stresses me out and sometimes even makes me regret spending money on purchases. Your videos always help me feel more comfortable with spending money, knowing that I'm not alone in finding a balance in life. Have an amazing August Ella~

    Have you tried to do a no spend month like to see how much money you can sav by not spending on extra stuff (clothes, coffee, ect) and see how much you can save base off of it.

    • @smileycitrus

    As always, loving the monthly resets! I don't know if it's possible in your spreadsheet, but is there a way that you can specify where money is spent from? So you can still put down that you're saving for travel, but also that travel expenses are coming out of that fund? That's how I would probably set it up, but I think the way you chose to do it also makes sense!

      we'll probably be staying with family/friends in the UK for a good chunk of time which will help save $$$ and then we're thinking Paris, Amsterdam, Berlin, Prague and Copenhagen 🥰

    Ella, really recommend Lyka pet food for Mabel Moo. It’s freshly made in Australia and is delivered frozen to your door. Plus your subscribers would love a cheeky discount code for their puppers if you’re ever sponsored 😌

    @EmsFitVenture 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Have you checked out your 50/30/20 goals/expectations versus what you are spending? It could help you better plan or restrict if you wanted. I would also say to have a small Emergency fund for Mabel or be okay pulling from yours as most pet insurance is a refund not a straight forward payment. There are also things it will not cover.

    • @smileycitrus
      @smileycitrus  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      absolutely! we've got our emergency fund for scenarios exactly like that (and partly why I want to increase it further) ☺️
