    My dad was listening in and he heard you say the amount you had saved up in your house fund and he said “Mann you have more then that court she’s a rookie!” I said “dad...that’s just ONE of her envelopes...I am the rookie” we both started busting out laughing. 😂💀💕💕💕💕

    Identifying and seeing where your money is going is huge. Once I started, doing a budget and identifying where I could save it created more money for savings and investments.

    i been budgeting forever but i be eating out or my son needs something and i pull and end up at the end of year ( not month bc i dont look at my expenses or keep track) and ill be broke.. basicly my budgeting wasnt so good 🤣😩so i was looking around and saw the budget mom i was curious so i did alot of research and the book was expensive ( i mean to me it was) so i told myself i need a better way to budget and keep track.. i got alot of budgeting things from etsy ( did my research on that also) so i think im ready for the savings/budgeting journey. you video was so good i loved it.. ❤️

    A Penny Saved is a Penny Earned.
    i suggest you should invest in something . Invest in either REIT (real estate investment trust) or stocks.
    i highly recommend investing in stocks, they are not hard to learn and specially ETF stocks . You dont have to involved much.
