    No disrepect to anyone else who has videos on budgeting on CZcams but why am I so excited to get off work and start my budgeting after watching you?? You break this info down so well and I am understanding everything you are saying and doing. 😆. Going to get me some cute little pens right now! 😄 Thanks Bri! You're so awesome!!

    I have been budgeting weekly for years. I remember the struggles with the first month. I
    round all expenses not already ending in 5 or 0 to nearest 5 or 0 above e.g. Netflix would be $15. Also would make sure the monthly divided by 4 ended in 0 or 5. (makes the maths easier and builds small buffer can use for debt repayment or a guilt free treat). Best thing I ever did was open a second bank account to pay bills from. It helps massively with budgeting and allows you to see what you actually have to spend.

    Omg!!!! This is perfect. I’ve done “my budget” for so many years and I’ve always been kind of lost. Now, doing it this ways has open so many doors. This is amazing. Is kind of hard to start, specially the first like 3 paychecks but now I could really do the sinking funds that I wanted to do.
    Thank you so much for sharing this video!!!

    Thank you for this video. I've heard about the cash envelope system before but have always felt overwhelmed by it with no idea where to begin. This was so helpful - I was able to sit down after watching it and make a budget for the first time in my life. Thanks for explaining it so well and making it accessible to those of us who feel overwhelmed by money talk.

      Hi Loey!! If you couldn't stick to this type of method like me... check out this video to learn how to use excel for your money tracking. It does the math for you and only takes 20 minutes to set up to be used forever! czcams.com/video/YzjMKxzSM2Q/video.html enjoy!

  • @sandrao0727
    @sandrao0727 Před 5 lety +124

    You did really good. Easy to follow. I wouldn't put gas, groceries and spending as a sinking fun. You would be using that weekly so to me it would be in expenses.

    • @clarissathompson-matthews9260
      @clarissathompson-matthews9260 Před 4 lety +10

      The reason it's in sinking funds is its purchases that can be typically easier to make cash envelopes for

    • @Beautifulelsie
      @Beautifulelsie Před 4 lety +1

      Agree it’s not a sinking funds

    • @zeldadanielle
      @zeldadanielle Před 2 lety +3

      To me it's a sinking fund because I can pull what I need at the time. I may not do all my shopping at once or spend the same amount every time.

  • @candy2325
    @candy2325 Před 2 lety +4

    This method is super helpful I always break down my expenses by the number of checks and to save money. I was able to calculate when I was able to reach my savings goals and pay off my car loan. It makes budgeting less stressful.

So I will definitely start doing it this way starting this July, which is already the second half of an entire year. Fingers crossed!
