ABOUT ME. How Much Money Do I Make? How Much Debt Do I Have? Shared Finances & More

Hi friends,
At the request of a subbie,
I created this video to share a bit more about myself.
How much do I make? How much Debt do I have? How I use my cash envelopes and more. If you have any other questions, please leave them below. I try to be as transparent as possible.
Xoxox,

Lovely about me video Areli! When you were talking about savings challenges it reminded me when I showed my dad someone’s savings challenge video and he was like I don’t get it….so your gambling???😂 He’s 83 years old. I’m like well if it’s gambling atleast you get to keep the money and not giving it away 🤦🏾‍♀️ When I first started I didn’t understand why people had so many binders but like a month afterwards I was “OHHHHH I get it now!” For me it’s like a nice organizational system and a great visual to see how much I have to spend on certain things.
Hope you have a great day/weekend! I’m catching up on the rest of your videos at work 🫶🏾

Hi Areli! Loved getting to know more about you and the breakdown! ❤ haha agree with you about savings challenges making savings more fun even though we have to pay to buy the challenges 😅❤ love love love your final thoughts. We all definitely fall into the comparison trap! ❤
I didn’t start out in tech but somehow ended up in tech (ish). I make decent salary but with the cost of living, it doesn’t feel like it. And I have a couple side hustles. I have a bf and we have a 3 year old son! 💙 me and bf also split bills but keep our finances separate and budget our own incomes.

Oh wow, someone watched til the end 😅 thank you Lina!! I didn’t expect to get more than maybe 10 views on this one, much less have ppl enjoy it and comment. I still feel very green at this, so I’m like - at a loss for words. Thank you 💖
And THANK YOU for sharing a bit about you!! I agree sometimes the salary looks good on paper but when you factor in cost of living and other shenanigans, it makes you wonder 🧐🧐 I love getting a glimpse at you and your little fam & side hustles through your videos 💕
Thank you so much for watching 💕
