  • In today's video, I go over our current cash envelopes systems!
    We have come a long way from basic paper envelopes to boujee zipper envelopes. Cash envelopes are a great way to change and become more mindful of your spending habits. You can physically see that when the money is gone, it's GONE. Zip. Nada. ZERO. I can honestly say that this method alone has saved my family sooooo much money and I hope it can help you guys too :)

    This is huge on my vision board this year. I just went to Amazon and found a much cheaper version at 12 dollars plus I got a little record Keeping inserts for another 13 dollars. This is how I know I'm getting old, my new years eve will be of me and my vision board and using this system. And I'm excited

    I been doing this since i was like 4 years old,i also put in envelopes savings (in the bank also) but i have like a back up savings so if i use all the one in the bank i still have some backup, also very important i put money in envelopes for family birthdays, husband b-day, kids b-day etc..mother's day envelop, Christmas food and presents, also a "house" money envelope for when something breaks or i just need to get something for the house or even remodelling. ...i usually do this with the tax return money i fill in the envelopes so i can have a little more stretch during the months but i also save money every month.

    I am starting my budgeting and cash envelope journey this year, so I'm pretty excited and glad I came across your channel. This video had me on the hunt for the Kate Spade Organizer! Luckily, I found a small boutique that had a couple in stock and was able to get my hands on it the next day. It's absolutely the cutest and I love the clear cash holders. That's my next purchase!

  • @dloveofgod8269

    I think it's a good idea, this one is pretty. I used this method 50 years ago. I do think it would be much better, secure, to use non transparent zip folders. I would actually use it if each folder was colored. I would tend to put an envelope inside each zip compartment for greater privacy, security.

  • @jisushikas

    I just started to use the one you said it was happy planner. I do like it cause I carry my cards and my most use envelopes which is gas and food and thank you cause you gave me the Idea to put the plastic zipper bag. All the way back after my planner papers I put my checks . For me this one is great but before I would have wanted to try the kate spade one. Thanks video was great..

    I just use jars. One is savings and one is the challenge money. I push myself to get by a certain amount of time with a certain amount of money. at the end of the month all that is left goes to the savings. or like I change it to another currency so it's harder for me to just take it and spend it

    The idea sounds nice, but what is it for? I assume digital payment works the same way. Just turn down credit limits to the budget of the month, and leave minimal in chequing account. Then, i won't buys stuff If i don't have credit limits left and i am earning points or getting cash back for every dollar i pay.

    • @wall_to_wall
      @wall_to_wall Před 4 lety +2

      Crystal Chen not everyone has credit cards to use and not everyone can use them without abusing them. The cash system is a way to prevent overspending as you categorize your finances, put in an appropriate amount for each category based on what you can afford and then once it’s gone, it’s gone. You can’t overspend.

    TUnfortunately, this system probably works poorly in Sweden. It is a new law, now that forces Swedish banks to handle cash. There are several places that I cannot use cash at all. If you want to have a coffee or take the bus here, then card or swish is the only alternative.
