Another food one: learn to make a homemade version of what you would usually buy, like pasta sauce or smoothies. If you can manage, learn to can pantry type items.
Hi Rose! I love your approach to saving money and having this larger goal of financial freedom at the end! I love your tip on shopping for items on the lower shelves and fasting! I've been doing that too and not only do I feel better with my weight control, but I also save 33% of my money to spend on food. Heh. Keep making these great videos Rose!
Your content is great Rose! I started following your videos as soon as your bad money habits video came up on my recommended list one evening (it was destined hahaha)! Some things I've been doing as of late are: - Making my coffee at home (Got a free Keurig a couple months back; now I just load up on K-Cups each month as needed); also limiting to 1 cup per day in my 14 oz Contigo canteen - Taking advantage of my company's gym membership where if I go 8 times a month, I get reimbursed (nice way to motivate to save money and exercise... MONTHS back that is ;[ ... someday) - Finally opened a Roth IRA yesterday (will start setting things up budget wise) - Making sure I unplug my devices from the outlets before I leave to work (to save on electricity and lighting bills; not everything of course but things such as chargers, power strips, etc.) - Trying to utilize my groceries as best as I can (improved a bunch overtime); Ex: Downing the famous Korean Spicy noodle rather than ordering a takeout for one night (once in a while of course lol)
Hi Rose! Ive been following your videos for the last few months and make sure to watch at least one video a day. Your videos have really assisted in shifting my mindset on finance! 🙌🏼 & receiving insight from a fellow first-gen asian american female has been so refreshing and inspiring! Thank you for the quality content we all need🙏🏼
I actually agree with Rose on saving money at the movies. I think the even more practical thing to do is get a few bottle sodas or boxes of candy from Target or the 99 cent store on your way to the movies. These can easily be put into a purse or your pocket. I have found that these exact same products are 300% more at the concession stand. And with my savings I’ll buy their overpriced popcorn.
people have been sneaking food into movie theaters for decades, since it's - officially, anyway - against 'the rules' in most movie business locations [in the west, anyway]. and considering that they rely on the food, drinks & sweets to make a profit, I'm STILL surprised that anyone or any company is willing to own a movie facility. since it's one of the most impractical & volatile investments in the world. it's a puzzlement!🤔 and esp., since COVID-19 happened: I mean, how are any of them still open??😯 I'm beginning to think they're all a money laundering front for god knows what..or something else shady, *LoL!!* 😄
I have a rule for myself when it comes to care products, makeup, clothes and other non-food related items. I cannot purchase anything at full price. So when I find something I like/want I wait until it goes in clerence, find a coupon, or wait for a sale. I do this with online food purchases to, it's amazing how much you can save with a simple coupon Google search for a company or product!
Most other things I buy full price, but I hardly ever buy clothes full price. I don’t see reason to when places like Kohl’s always have so much clothes that are reduced price or clearance
Hello, yes. A lot of money does go to food but if you cook it yourself it's way cheaper than eating out. Planning meals is key, why buy extra meats/veggies when you already have them or else they will expire. Have 2 girls so this is a very healthy option for all of us.
Loved this video. At the start of quarantine I wrote down everything I wanted to achieve by 2021. I realized had to get real. So I wrote down what my monthly break down is now and started cutting out extra subscriptions, I looked at my makeup and skin care which I would spend a good amount on and decided to use what i have. That one has been a daily struggle with all the sales and promotions but I am happy to say I have only bought a cleanser because I used up every sample and tube I had! I also made a goal to have xx amount in my savings by the end of the year and how that would break down monthly. Put that on a board i look at every day and definitely helps when I get an urge to splurge. Still have some work to do on the food front as take out has still been a bit of a go too.
My food expenses have evened out because I no longer eat out. It all goes to groceries. I have saved 100% of my entertainment budget & 95% of my gas budget the last three months. I can't believe I can fill my tank ONCE each month now.
Great advice Rose. Regarding the HSA, it's best to try and invest long-term and treat it like a 401(k) plan. However if you need to use it for medical expenses, my hack is to pay your medical bills first with a credit card offering points, then submit for expense reimbursement from the HSA and in turn pay the credit card. That way you at least earn more credit card points!
Hack # 13 - It's so liberating when you start pouring your energy into relationships that are truly mutual and give up on the meaningless hollow friendships. It happened to me almost overnight. Go the extra mile for those who are important to you, show your gratitude, and they will reciprocate in kind.
Hi Rose.....I was trying to figure out an intermittent fasting schedule for awhile now and you solved it for me! I started skipping breakfast this week. Also, I learned over the pandemic that you can workout from home instead of buying a gym membership. I’ve switched from dumbbells to flat resistance bands which work really well for me. Really like your videos. Thanks!
Just subbed. Absolutely hilarious that you suggested fasting (skipping breakfast... who eats breakfast? Just make a coffee). I really enjoy the advice and how you describe really obvious, simple, and easy to do things that people just overlook.
I just found your videos! I wish I heard them when I was on my 20s . Another tip, is to save during the year to pay for your car insurance annual since you will have a discount for paying a full amount. I have an automatic transfer every month for this expense in specific.
that popcorn advice gave me such nostalgia. My immigrant parents from HK, also did this with us when they would take us to the movies. Except, my dad packed us oranges to eat :). So grateful that my parents were able to show us the importance of saving money
I will bet that 95% of Americans have never heard of an HSA and could benefit incredibly from knowing more about how it works and how you go about researching and such. BTW, love your work!
Planning all meals for the coming week on the weekend and doing all groceries' shopping in one go helps reduce costs too. Healthier and less waste too!
First two tips were pure gold! The intermittent fasting lifestyle is amazing-- I've been doing it for 6 months and it's one of the best things I've done for my health and it does save you a lot of money.
Meal hacks, I stopped spending money on breakfast a long time ago because it is so true how expensive and unnecessary that can get. Since skipping breakfast can be a challenge, just buy your own coffee, oatmeal or english muffin at home for the week and take it to work each day where you still just come out cheaper. Making a list of all items in your pantry and cooking it before shopping is something that I try to keep in practice since seeing the suggestion over a decade ago when Oprah was on. Does help you to clean out pantry and keep food from expiring as well.
There was a coat that I really wanted to buy, but it cost just a little bit more than I could comfortably afford, so I put it back and told myself that if I really wanted it, I would come back for it another day. I decided that I would go back and get it. I went to the store and tried it on again and realized that it didn't look as good as it did the first time I tried it on. I dunno if I was looking extra fly the first day, or maybe something I ate had me in a better mood about it the first day, but that 2nd time I tried it on, I was like, whoa, I'm glad I didn't waste my money on this! I don't remember where I read this idea. I read it somewhere, though, and one day while I was shopping, I thought of it. I had all this stuff in my shopping cart, and I remembered this thing I read. I had all these things in my cart, but that didn't mean that I had to buy them. With all of these things that I chose to put in my cart, I could just as easily choose not to walk up to the register and pay for them and leave with them. The whole time, I always have the choice to put them all back and walk out of the store with nothing except all the money I still kept in my pocket. I could walk out the door, and if I really wanted it, I could turn around, walk back in the store and buy it. One day, my cart was full of all this stuff. I thought of this thing I read, and one by one, I put everything back. I left the store empty handed, and I felt so empowered! I felt so good I didn't want to go back in there and buy one thing that I was going to buy before. The feeling of empowerment over my choice was immediate and so overpowering in the best way. It was a new kind of instant gratification. It was like I just got paid to walk out of the store with nothing. And I will always remember that feeling. And it applies to internet shopping, too. If I like something, I'll put it in the shopping cart, but it doesn't mean that I actually have to follow through and buy it. It's almost always stuff that I realize I didn't really want anyway. If I really need a pair of boots, I may find some I like, then find some I like better later, and instead of winding up buying 2 pairs of boots, if I wait just a little longer, I might buy only the one pair that I found later and liked better. Sometimes the things in your cart go on sale later. It will show in your cart if the price went down. Still, doesn't mean that you have to buy it. Sometimes the item disappears from your cart. And that's okay. There's always something new coming up around the bend. You really never have to buy anything. A lot of it all is just based on emotions that will gradually lead you to the emotion of sadness for having credit card debt and an empty bank account. Money is power. Giving away your money for things you find later you didn't even really want that much, takes away from your power to buy the things that will truly bring happiness, like financial security.
I really like how you explained it. It is a beautiful feeling just going into a store and having on your cellphone note: I Need _______. Go in to buy what you need and leave. There is so much around us that looks neat and attractive fun packaging. 'Look this way... buy me' No thanks, I only came here for one item. Lol! 😊
I do this alot!! I put everything I want in the (online) cart, then decide to not buy it thinking ”if I really want it I’ll come back for it” and honestly I almost always forget every single thing I was about to buy
The only thing with meat food products is that price also dictates what living and welfare conditions the animal has been exposed to. If you care about animals, cheap is rarely better. I just eat less meat to reduce my food bill
Make sure that you check with your lender if they will allow for it. Remember they lose money doing it that way so some won't accept bi-weekly payments.
Rose, one suggestion. Whenever, you conclude your video, just make a bullet point list or summary of the main points discussed in the video. Your videos are filled with a ton of information. Having a summary towards the end, helps me retain more information. Regards, Your student from Automatic Millionaire, Adithya.
Really such a great video. The most effective means of making returns is through investments. I manage an autosales company, my husband owns an interior design company and he invests 30% of his monthly income into buying stock of companies worth over a billion dollars and ever since I followed in his steps I earn close to 15k dividends monthly from my investments, we own our home, paid our cars in full and not in debt. This is what the right investment can generate overtime and its been amazing.
You must also know that in as much as stock investment is one of the numerous investment opportunities out there you must endeavor to carry out personal research before venturing into it so you're informed about the do's and don'ts.
I have lost a lot of weight through intermittent fasting so that for me is a great hack. I think I need more than one no spending day. Keep up the good work and see yo next week. 😉
Something I do: I bought a small safe that I managed to secure down into the trunk of my car. So, anytime i go to work or go to a friend's house to maybe watch a football game or something, I put my debit and credit cards and any cash I may have inside the safe and lock it up. So, during the day if I get the urge to buy lunch instead of eating my prepared meal or buy a drink from the vending machine I know that I am going to have to walk all the way back outside to the parking lot, unlock the safe, get my money, and walk back into the building. The urge quickly goes away and I stay with the current plan of eating my bologna sandwich and refilling my water bottle.
good content. A money saving hack for me is having a solid emergency fund, which allows me to raise the deductible on my car insurance. I went from paying $144 a month to $62 a month for the same coverage.
Do you believe after watching this video I came across some comments and I could see some people talking cyber spyyy on instargram.i was so surprised when I received $7000 from him few hours ago
I would not endorse intermittent fasting, since everyone is different. Im a powerlifter, and i need the calories to fuel my day. For active people, maybe try a fruit smoothie. Frozen fruit is cheap and just add water and a scoop of plain yogurt, and some oats to add some bulk
I do not bring popcorn to the movies. I do bring $1 candy boxes I pick up from the dollar store and stash in my purse. I also bring a couple waters. I usually still buy popcorn and sodas. But I go to matinees to save money or on Tuesdays several of the movie theaters near Nashville have $5 movie days. There's also a lot of free movies in the park in the area during the summer.
Great tips. I can relate to the movie theater popcorn. I actually pop in a bag in the microwave before leaving the house and quickly empty it in a ziploc bag. I also pack small gummies, chocolate, small juices for the kids. That's a must. This way we don't get deprived and buy everything in bulk for pennies. Another tip is to buy private label items in the store. Most companies have their own label which use name brand manufacturers. You buy the same quality food and personal items without the mark-up. I also noticed that pink things cost more, literally. On Amazon when selecting a pink item vs blue or anything else came up more expensive. Specifically remember a Yeti mug costing $60 when the neutral colors were $30. What a rip off. I also don't buy anything full price. Home items are discounted at Home Goods etc. Buying Christmas toys there first before Walmart. Good job on the video! It's been as while since I heard new things.
great ideas! only a few were a *no-go* for me! and I know you weren't trying to be funny - but you had me laughing out LOUD at some points re: some of your *EXTREMELY* super-practical ideas, *hahahaha!* 😄🤣 I mean, I just can't sell my soul to save money, Rose!,🤦🏾♀️ *LoLoLoL!!* 😆😂

Another hack I noticed is with Zara mid season sale. NEVER buy in the first week of the sale, the sale items are usually only 10-20% off. If you wait till the 2nd-3rd week, they often add items (with all sizes) that are 40-80% off. I've got tops/ dresses for like 12 dollars.
I've seen firsthand how sleazy property management companies purposely offer different lease amounts for the number of months you want to sign for. The cheapest month was always the month they are trying to get you to sign for, which is one of the peak months. The other months were, at times, almost double the "cheapest" lease end month.
Really solid advice. Extremely practical, and easy to implement. Never thought about bi-monthly payments on a mortgage. Although I don't own a house, I will be implementing this practice when I do
I got so excited about the biweekly mortgage payments but my lender is calculating the principal AFTER the ENTIRE monthly amount is applied even if I do biweekly :(((((
Another thing to remember regarding traveling. Places that have smaller economies might not be as cheap if you only look at the exchange rate. That's because those countries have to import most of what they consume, so the foods and services have to cost much more so that those in the local economy can afford to import. So check for those bigger countries that have a stronger internal economy.
At the beginning of the pandemic, I got into the very expensive habit of home-brewing coffee--which is already cheaper than daily lattes I bought at the cafe--but then after 3 months of aggressive consumption, I developed an intolerance to caffeine. So tons of money saved!!
1. weekly mortgage payments 2. pre-drink before going out 3. wait a day to a week before any impulse purchase 4. NEVER PUT ANYTHING ON YOUR CREDIT CARD YOU DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO PAY FOR NOW 5. grow your own 6. shop for food by comparing $/100g. If the store doesn't list that, shop elsewhere. 7. buy gold 8. stay off Facebook 9. birth control
Any piece on advice to anyone considering buying property in this climate? Now that rent is sometimes more expensive than mortgage in certain places, are we missing out on a money opportunity for low interest? Or is it just another buyer bubble?
My best saving hack: Always sending my husband to the store and never bringing my wallet when we go out together. Saves me tons of money that I can invest instead. 😂
I'm doing keto, so I usually drink an Atkins or keto shake for breakfast. This saves money and time in the mornings. I also use the Honey app for online purchases.

Living life without debt and watching my savings grow, has made life so much more enjoyable. I am a lifelong learner, and I am grateful for all of your tips/tricks, thank you.
I'm halfway through my student debt!! Can't wait to pay mine down
@@nicolek356 Great, you will feel amazing , once you pay off your loans. I used the snowball method to pay off all of my debt, good luck.
@A N Detjen Thank you
Another food one: learn to make a homemade version of what you would usually buy, like pasta sauce or smoothies. If you can manage, learn to can pantry type items.
Hi Rose! I love your approach to saving money and having this larger goal of financial freedom at the end! I love your tip on shopping for items on the lower shelves and fasting! I've been doing that too and not only do I feel better with my weight control, but I also save 33% of my money to spend on food. Heh. Keep making these great videos Rose!
Wow Iconfirmed $14,000 in my bank accounts.i was shocked CYBER SPYYY ON INSTARGRAM could do it legit for me
Shopping at the dollar store for personal items is a money saver.
Dollar general has a app with lots of coupons too!
Thanks for the tips
Agree, and some like Dollar Tree have a good cookware selection too.
Your content is great Rose!
I started following your videos as soon as your bad money habits video came up on my recommended list one evening (it was destined hahaha)!
Some things I've been doing as of late are:
- Making my coffee at home (Got a free Keurig a couple months back; now I just load up on K-Cups each month as needed); also limiting to 1 cup per day in my 14 oz Contigo canteen
- Taking advantage of my company's gym membership where if I go 8 times a month, I get reimbursed (nice way to motivate to save money and exercise... MONTHS back that is ;[ ... someday)
- Finally opened a Roth IRA yesterday (will start setting things up budget wise)
- Making sure I unplug my devices from the outlets before I leave to work (to save on electricity and lighting bills; not everything of course but things such as chargers, power strips, etc.)
- Trying to utilize my groceries as best as I can (improved a bunch overtime); Ex: Downing the famous Korean Spicy noodle rather than ordering a takeout for one night (once in a while of course lol)
Truth be told, I need a friend like Rose! This girl knows her stuff ♥️
Hi Rose! Ive been following your videos for the last few months and make sure to watch at least one video a day. Your videos have really assisted in shifting my mindset on finance! 🙌🏼 & receiving insight from a fellow first-gen asian american female has been so refreshing and inspiring! Thank you for the quality content we all need🙏🏼
I actually agree with Rose on saving money at the movies. I think the even more practical thing to do is get a few bottle sodas or boxes of candy from Target or the 99 cent store on your way to the movies. These can easily be put into a purse or your pocket. I have found that these exact same products are 300% more at the concession stand. And with my savings I’ll buy their overpriced popcorn.
people have been sneaking food into movie theaters for decades, since it's - officially, anyway - against 'the rules' in most movie business locations [in the west, anyway]. and considering that they rely on the food, drinks & sweets to make a profit, I'm STILL surprised that anyone or any company is willing to own a movie facility. since it's one of the most impractical & volatile investments in the world. it's a puzzlement!🤔
and esp., since COVID-19 happened: I mean, how are any of them still open??😯 I'm beginning to think they're all a money laundering front for god knows what..or something else shady, *LoL!!* 😄
I have a rule for myself when it comes to care products, makeup, clothes and other non-food related items. I cannot purchase anything at full price. So when I find something I like/want I wait until it goes in clerence, find a coupon, or wait for a sale. I do this with online food purchases to, it's amazing how much you can save with a simple coupon Google search for a company or product!
Most other things I buy full price,
but I hardly ever buy clothes full price.
I don’t see reason to when places like Kohl’s always have so much clothes that are reduced price or clearance
I've been quarantined for months now and 80% of my expenses were foods. Anyone cutting expenses during a pandemic?
Hello, yes. A lot of money does go to food but if you cook it yourself it's way cheaper than eating out. Planning meals is key, why buy extra meats/veggies when you already have them or else they will expire. Have 2 girls so this is a very healthy option for all of us.
I have not sat down in a restaurant in 5 months going on 6 months. For the fun of it, I'm going to see how long I can go.
Loved this video. At the start of quarantine I wrote down everything I wanted to achieve by 2021. I realized had to get real. So I wrote down what my monthly break down is now and started cutting out extra subscriptions, I looked at my makeup and skin care which I would spend a good amount on and decided to use what i have. That one has been a daily struggle with all the sales and promotions but I am happy to say I have only bought a cleanser because I used up every sample and tube I had!
I also made a goal to have xx amount in my savings by the end of the year and how that would break down monthly. Put that on a board i look at every day and definitely helps when I get an urge to splurge. Still have some work to do on the food front as take out has still been a bit of a go too.
Haha - my food expenses have gone up a bit as well... but not 80% level
My food expenses have evened out because I no longer eat out. It all goes to groceries. I have saved 100% of my entertainment budget & 95% of my gas budget the last three months. I can't believe I can fill my tank ONCE each month now.
Great advice Rose. Regarding the HSA, it's best to try and invest long-term and treat it like a 401(k) plan. However if you need to use it for medical expenses, my hack is to pay your medical bills first with a credit card offering points, then submit for expense reimbursement from the HSA and in turn pay the credit card. That way you at least earn more credit card points!
Thank you. I loved the capsule wardrobe and mortgage suggestion
Hack # 13 - It's so liberating when you start pouring your energy into relationships that are truly mutual and give up on the meaningless hollow friendships. It happened to me almost overnight. Go the extra mile for those who are important to you, show your gratitude, and they will reciprocate in kind.
Dang I thought I was the only one that kept a really small social circle just to save money 😅
Breathing is expensive. Thats why I live with my parents.
Preach👏🏼it👏🏼
😂😂Hilarious!!
ah you're lucky you weren't kicked out.
For REAL. I'm paying so much right now every month when I could be redirecting it to stocks 😪
Why did the cashier @ 6:22 have such an attitude? lol. Love your videos!
Love Hack number 2. Bi-weekly house mortgage payments. Changed my life forever. Great video Rose!!
Hi Rose.....I was trying to figure out an intermittent fasting schedule for awhile now and you solved it for me! I started skipping breakfast this week. Also, I learned over the pandemic that you can workout from home instead of buying a gym membership. I’ve switched from dumbbells to flat resistance bands which work really well for me. Really like your videos. Thanks!
Just subbed. Absolutely hilarious that you suggested fasting (skipping breakfast... who eats breakfast? Just make a coffee). I really enjoy the advice and how you describe really obvious, simple, and easy to do things that people just overlook.
Wow Iconfirmed $14,000 in my bank accounts.i was shocked CYBER SPYYY ON INSTARGRAM could do it legit for me
I just found your videos! I wish I heard them when I was on my 20s .
Another tip, is to save during the year to pay for your car insurance annual since you will have a discount for paying a full amount. I have an automatic transfer every month for this expense in specific.
LOVE how you mix and match your clothes! Very random, but I wish you could make a video on capsule wardrobe
Bi monthly mortgage and buying stuff from lower shelf. You’re genius. Thank you for your tips
My mind is completely blown at ur Bi-weekly tip. I am so stupid to not think of that. Thank u Rose!!! I owe u one!!!
I think no buy day may not be enough. Maybe a couple no buy weeks every month? Like no buy first 20 calendar days.
Ohh my you are tough! 😂
I don’t think I can follow your plan! Lol
Thanks Rose for the beautiful video, I still believe that the future lies with investment. 💯
You are absolutely right, investment is the best way to escape poverty
Being poor is very expensive
Over the years I have learnt the secret advantage of the rich in over the poor.
The rich spends and still invest while the poor spends with no plans of investing.
I have watched so many videos on investment, but I am still not sure of what type of investment to go into
I've just switched my student loan from monthly to weekly repayment. Great tip thank you!.
Can't believe it never occurred to me to do it.
Ever since i found this channe ive been binging all your videos, Cant wait to watch as many as possible!
that popcorn advice gave me such nostalgia. My immigrant parents from HK, also did this with us when they would take us to the movies. Except, my dad packed us oranges to eat :). So grateful that my parents were able to show us the importance of saving money
Just started using the HSA option at work this year - LOVE IT!
SAME!
I will bet that 95% of Americans have never heard of an HSA and could benefit incredibly from knowing more about how it works and how you go about researching and such. BTW, love your work!
Some companies even give you money. I worked at a company that at beginning of the year it will deposit on your HSA account $500.
Planning all meals for the coming week on the weekend and doing all groceries' shopping in one go helps reduce costs too. Healthier and less waste too!
First two tips were pure gold! The intermittent fasting lifestyle is amazing-- I've been doing it for 6 months and it's one of the best things I've done for my health and it does save you a lot of money.
Meal hacks, I stopped spending money on breakfast a long time ago because it is so true how expensive and unnecessary that can get. Since skipping breakfast can be a challenge, just buy your own coffee, oatmeal or english muffin at home for the week and take it to work each day where you still just come out cheaper. Making a list of all items in your pantry and cooking it before shopping is something that I try to keep in practice since seeing the suggestion over a decade ago when Oprah was on. Does help you to clean out pantry and keep food from expiring as well.
There was a coat that I really wanted to buy, but it cost just a little bit more than I could comfortably afford, so I put it back and told myself that if I really wanted it, I would come back for it another day. I decided that I would go back and get it. I went to the store and tried it on again and realized that it didn't look as good as it did the first time I tried it on. I dunno if I was looking extra fly the first day, or maybe something I ate had me in a better mood about it the first day, but that 2nd time I tried it on, I was like, whoa, I'm glad I didn't waste my money on this!
I don't remember where I read this idea. I read it somewhere, though, and one day while I was shopping, I thought of it. I had all this stuff in my shopping cart, and I remembered this thing I read. I had all these things in my cart, but that didn't mean that I had to buy them. With all of these things that I chose to put in my cart, I could just as easily choose not to walk up to the register and pay for them and leave with them. The whole time, I always have the choice to put them all back and walk out of the store with nothing except all the money I still kept in my pocket. I could walk out the door, and if I really wanted it, I could turn around, walk back in the store and buy it. One day, my cart was full of all this stuff. I thought of this thing I read, and one by one, I put everything back. I left the store empty handed, and I felt so empowered! I felt so good I didn't want to go back in there and buy one thing that I was going to buy before. The feeling of empowerment over my choice was immediate and so overpowering in the best way. It was a new kind of instant gratification. It was like I just got paid to walk out of the store with nothing. And I will always remember that feeling. And it applies to internet shopping, too. If I like something, I'll put it in the shopping cart, but it doesn't mean that I actually have to follow through and buy it. It's almost always stuff that I realize I didn't really want anyway. If I really need a pair of boots, I may find some I like, then find some I like better later, and instead of winding up buying 2 pairs of boots, if I wait just a little longer, I might buy only the one pair that I found later and liked better. Sometimes the things in your cart go on sale later. It will show in your cart if the price went down. Still, doesn't mean that you have to buy it. Sometimes the item disappears from your cart. And that's okay. There's always something new coming up around the bend. You really never have to buy anything. A lot of it all is just based on emotions that will gradually lead you to the emotion of sadness for having credit card debt and an empty bank account. Money is power. Giving away your money for things you find later you didn't even really want that much, takes away from your power to buy the things that will truly bring happiness, like financial security.
I really like how you explained it. It is a beautiful feeling just going into a store and having on your cellphone note: I Need _______. Go in to buy what you need and leave. There is so much around us that looks neat and attractive fun packaging. 'Look this way... buy me' No thanks, I only came here for one item. Lol! 😊
I do this alot!! I put everything I want in the (online) cart, then decide to not buy it thinking ”if I really want it I’ll come back for it” and honestly I almost always forget every single thing I was about to buy
The only thing with meat food products is that price also dictates what living and welfare conditions the animal has been exposed to. If you care about animals, cheap is rarely better. I just eat less meat to reduce my food bill
I love that rapid fire speed for the money saving ideas! I learned some great stuff in this video.
Love the paying mortgage twice a month hack! Will definitely be doing that once I close on my house (and now with my student loans as well).
Make sure that you check with your lender if they will allow for it. Remember they lose money doing it that way so some won't accept bi-weekly payments.
Cannot agree more with your tips~! Thanks Rose!감사합니다 :)
Thank you so much! I am hooked on your advice! The mortgage in two payments sounds so smart!
Rose, one suggestion.
Whenever, you conclude your video, just make a bullet point list or summary of the main points discussed in the video.
Your videos are filled with a ton of information. Having a summary towards the end, helps me retain more information.
Regards,
Your student from Automatic Millionaire, Adithya.
Wow Iconfirmed $14,000 in my bank accounts.i was shocked CYBER SPYYY ON INSTARGRAM could do it legit for me
Ooh that’s a great suggestion, and great to see you here! Thanks will incorporate into future videos, it’s definitely one I’ve thought about
Really such a great video. The most effective means of making returns is through investments. I manage an autosales company, my husband owns an interior design company and he invests 30% of his monthly income into buying stock of companies worth over a billion dollars and ever since I followed in his steps I earn close to 15k dividends monthly from my investments, we own our home, paid our cars in full and not in debt. This is what the right investment can generate overtime and its been amazing.
Wow that's really amazing, indeed worth emulating but I am inexperienced about the stock market investments.
You must also know that in as much as stock investment is one of the numerous investment opportunities out there you must endeavor to carry out personal research before venturing into it so you're informed about the do's and don'ts.
Been interested in stock investments but just don't know how best to go about it, and honestly I haven't done any good research on it.
Would TH-cam videos count as research?
Yes in a way, but one thing I do agree with is seeking the assistance of a stock investment expert just like I and my husband do.
I have lost a lot of weight through intermittent fasting so that for me is a great hack. I think I need more than one no spending day. Keep up the good work and see yo next week. 😉
Love your mention of intermittent fasting, Rose. I eat two meals a day between 12pm and 6pm. Mostly for health reasons.
I sneak food in the movies all the time!!😂😂
Something I do: I bought a small safe that I managed to secure down into the trunk of my car. So, anytime i go to work or go to a friend's house to maybe watch a football game or something, I put my debit and credit cards and any cash I may have inside the safe and lock it up. So, during the day if I get the urge to buy lunch instead of eating my prepared meal or buy a drink from the vending machine I know that I am going to have to walk all the way back outside to the parking lot, unlock the safe, get my money, and walk back into the building. The urge quickly goes away and I stay with the current plan of eating my bologna sandwich and refilling my water bottle.
All about making money go further! If you look after the pennies the pounds will look after themselves 💸
Thanks for all the helpful info that you share!♡
good content. A money saving hack for me is having a solid emergency fund, which allows me to raise the deductible on my car insurance. I went from paying $144 a month to $62 a month for the same coverage.
Nice! Will def try this.
This is another great advice! I will check that too
Thats a great idea!
All great money saving hacks! Love hearing about your personal experiences!
Great tips! It's refreshing to see someone with such a good mindset to come out ahead in life.
You sounded so passionate when talking about the laxatives 🤣🤣🤣
I just bring snacks from the dollar store in my bag for the movies ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Hopper sounds great, and the mortgage payment hack too. Thx!!
I love tip #1. Low rent season, genius!! Great video; thank you for the tips!
I like most of the hacks but I'm not skipping breakfast....My body doesn't start until I eat.
Do you believe after watching this video I came across some comments and I could see some people talking cyber spyyy on instargram.i was so surprised when I received $7000 from him few hours ago
You r awesome Rose! Just awesome.
That biweekly payment is a great idea to save money on my mortgage!
I'd like you see a whole video on your capsule wardrobe where you put together outfits for a week/month! :)
Agreed! I need ideas 😂
Rose, you are like a female Dave Ramsey. Only a lot cuter. And less mean. Thanks!
And better advice
I would not endorse intermittent fasting, since everyone is different. Im a powerlifter, and i need the calories to fuel my day. For active people, maybe try a fruit smoothie. Frozen fruit is cheap and just add water and a scoop of plain yogurt, and some oats to add some bulk
I do not bring popcorn to the movies. I do bring $1 candy boxes I pick up from the dollar store and stash in my purse. I also bring a couple waters. I usually still buy popcorn and sodas. But I go to matinees to save money or on Tuesdays several of the movie theaters near Nashville have $5 movie days. There's also a lot of free movies in the park in the area during the summer.
Great tips. I can relate to the movie theater popcorn. I actually pop in a bag in the microwave before leaving the house and quickly empty it in a ziploc bag. I also pack small gummies, chocolate, small juices for the kids. That's a must. This way we don't get deprived and buy everything in bulk for pennies.
Another tip is to buy private label items in the store. Most companies have their own label which use name brand manufacturers. You buy the same quality food and personal items without the mark-up.
I also noticed that pink things cost more, literally. On Amazon when selecting a pink item vs blue or anything else came up more expensive. Specifically remember a Yeti mug costing $60 when the neutral colors were $30. What a rip off.
I also don't buy anything full price. Home items are discounted at Home Goods etc. Buying Christmas toys there first before Walmart.
Good job on the video! It's been as while since I heard new things.
Great advice for everyone. Thank you so much for letting more people know about this options. You are amazing thank you 🙏
Thank you Rose.Ive learned a lot how to become a wise spender.very practical.God bless.take care.

great ideas! only a few were a *no-go* for me! and I know you weren't trying to be funny - but you had me laughing out LOUD at some points re: some of your *EXTREMELY* super-practical ideas, *hahahaha!* 😄🤣 I mean, I just can't sell my soul to save money, Rose!,🤦🏾♀️ *LoLoLoL!!* 😆😂
Hey, I brought a whole KFC bucket popcorn chicken to the movies.
This cracks me up! If I was sitting close by you, I would want some of it because it would smell so good. You could probably sell me a chicken leg for 3x the original amount.
Thanks Rose! Intermittent Fasting and the No-Buy Day are ideas I will try out this week.
Amazing tips! You can literally become rich by making adjustments in some of these spending categories. Thank you, Rose!
Happiness & Wealth Media Don’t ever think you can’t make it in life just run to Veratti100 on telegram for the best service in making money .he was the one who changed my life......
@@ramsethu3212 thank you!
Another hack I noticed is with Zara mid season sale. NEVER buy in the first week of the sale, the sale items are usually only 10-20% off. If you wait till the 2nd-3rd week, they often add items (with all sizes) that are 40-80% off. I've got tops/ dresses for like 12 dollars.
intermittent fasting , health best thing .Love you Rose.
I've seen firsthand how sleazy property management companies purposely offer different lease amounts for the number of months you want to sign for. The cheapest month was always the month they are trying to get you to sign for, which is one of the peak months. The other months were, at times, almost double the "cheapest" lease end month.
Skipping breakfast to save on money ?
I don't know...1st time I'm hearing that in my personal finance jouney
Really solid advice. Extremely practical, and easy to implement. Never thought about bi-monthly payments on a mortgage. Although I don't own a house, I will be implementing this practice when I do
I got so excited about the biweekly mortgage payments but my lender is calculating the principal AFTER the ENTIRE monthly amount is applied even if I do biweekly :(((((
Really enjoyed these tips. Thanks, Rose!
Another thing to remember regarding traveling. Places that have smaller economies might not be as cheap if you only look at the exchange rate. That's because those countries have to import most of what they consume, so the foods and services have to cost much more so that those in the local economy can afford to import. So check for those bigger countries that have a stronger internal economy.
FIRST TIME IVE HEARD OF PAYING YOUR MORTGAGE BY-MONTHLY TO PAY IT OFF SOONER! Great content friend! Thank you
At the beginning of the pandemic, I got into the very expensive habit of home-brewing coffee--which is already cheaper than daily lattes I bought at the cafe--but then after 3 months of aggressive consumption, I developed an intolerance to caffeine. So tons of money saved!!
Simply the best! ❤️❤️
1. weekly mortgage payments
2. pre-drink before going out
3. wait a day to a week before any impulse purchase
4. NEVER PUT ANYTHING ON YOUR CREDIT CARD YOU DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO PAY FOR NOW
5. grow your own
6. shop for food by comparing $/100g. If the store doesn't list that, shop elsewhere.
7. buy gold
8. stay off Facebook
9. birth control
Any piece on advice to anyone considering buying property in this climate? Now that rent is sometimes more expensive than mortgage in certain places, are we missing out on a money opportunity for low interest? Or is it just another buyer bubble?
My best saving hack: Always sending my husband to the store and never bringing my wallet when we go out together. Saves me tons of money that I can invest instead. 😂
Selfish bish
Your poor husband, talk about taking advantage
I'm doing keto, so I usually drink an Atkins or keto shake for breakfast. This saves money and time in the mornings. I also use the Honey app for online purchases.
I reallly, really enjoy this vide. I found it really helpful :)
