    I started selling stuff as a side hustle and did so well it became my full-time job. Now I earn more than I made before working for someone else, plus I set my own schedule and have no commute. Another tip is, when you do want to buy stuff, buy from resellers. I sell both new (never worn or used, some with tag) and pre-owned items, all in excellent condition, for a fraction of the price. We both win when you support a small business like mine.

      I totally agree. My husband and I finished grad school with $40,000 in debt and I was paying more than the minimum but they were not going down fast enough or we would pay and still use them. About 5 years ago I started moving them to 0% APR cards and paying them down faster. I also told my kids that we were paying our debt down, more than a $1000 each month, so they know how bad it is to have debt. When my oldest finished high school at 16 she stayed home to attend a local college. By then I still owed about $10,000. I used my tax return to pay her first year. She worked part time to have money to travel but has also saved. She has almost completed her 2nd year of college and without any debt. We are in south Georgia and in the past 2 years she traveled to a concert in Philadelphia, another in Atlanta and another one in California. She even paid her ticket to travel overseas to spend a semester with grandma and has almost $800 in savings. She works at Grandma's bakery and as a nanny to have some spending money to not touch her savings. My second kid is about to start college and he will also stay home.

    1. Shift your focus.
    2. Pay off debt using the debt snowball.
    3. Get on a budget.
    4. Sell stuff.
    5. Get a side hustle.
    LOL @3:20 - The debt snowball is the fastest & most efficient way to get out of debt.
    @3:30 - Some people look at paying off the highest interest rate first, and that's math. And they're correct.
    The bottom line is you should be sticking to a plan to get rid of your debt, whether it's the debt snowball or debt avalanche. The quicker you pay off your consumer debt, the less of a difference there will be between the debt snowball (pay off smallest debts first) & debt avalanche (paying off highest interest rates first).

    • @DebM122
      @DebM122 Před rokem +2

      I use the avalanche method instead of the snowball method. It helps me more especially since the fed is looking to raise interest rates again.

    @judypeterson803 Před rokem +8

    Also, take debt off the table. You must proclaim in your heart and soul that you are a person who doesn't see debt as an option...in ANY scenario going forward (except buying a house). Don't find yourself with $6,000 less debt in a few months and see all that margin and go buy a couch at no interest over 3 years!! Change that mindset!. No more debt, not just when you're working hard to get out of debt, but forever! Be intentional with your money going forward. If you want that couch, budget for it, save up ahead and then go use your debit card when you have the money. Just as easy and so much more rewarding. Take debt off the table! Not an option ever again. If you want a new car and payments will be $500 a month for 4 years, well, set aside $500 a month for 4 years in a separate savings account earmarked for a car and then go buy the car. You're still "making payments" like you think you can afford, but you're making the payments to yourself and then buying when you have the total. It's called planning ahead and staying out of debt. This is what it means to budget. You're not budgeting your money to decide how to pay people you owe anymore. Once you're out of debt you're budgeting your money so you can plan and buy the things that are important to you. It is so peaceful. Do the things Rachel suggests with gazelle intensity. Learning how to budget while in debt will carry over to budgeting when you're out of debt and you can finally have the things you want because you know what's possible within your income, and do it with peace!. ❤️

    Success depends on the actions or steps you take to achieve it. Show me a man with no investment and I'll tell you how long it takes to fail. The investment creates a safe haven for the future. With the right choice of investment that has at least a minimum risk of 2% and with expert advice, profits and interest are 100% guaranteed.

    Just a big pile of nonsense here. High interest rate debt for example 20-30% interest rates on credit cards can be crippling. Clearly paying off that sort of debt is much, much more important than paying down a 3% car loan. It must be almost painful to have to spout such nonsense we see here. I suppose poor Rachel has to propagate the Ramsey nonsense in order to keep her job. I find it hard to believe that she does not know better.

  • @dirtbikefrnk
    @dirtbikefrnk Před 3 měsíci

    Money is math, it’s all numbers, there is emotion and human nature that effect actions regarding money but it is still math and mathematically the “snowball method” is definitely NOT the best method. In terms of human nature, especially for those lacking self control, it may be very beneficial but it is in fact not the best. Oh and don’t sell things you are going to buy right back, that’s just selling for a loss then doubling down on dumb. Next you will advise people to sell their car for gas money.
    I am about to start making videos reacting to your false statements just to offset the idiocy you are creating. You need a personality in Ramsey that can do math and isn’t just trying to act like peoples parent, Dave, while lying to them without a reason why being mentioned.
