Very unconventional but I moved my furniture into storage and moved into my car for three years. As painful as that was, I paid off my car and all of my credit card debt, plus I saved $50,000 dollars. Discipline and sheer grit got me there. I was willing to make radical changes and sacrifices. Whatever you can do, do it and stick to the plan!

My biggest weakness is spending money on family and food. Honestly they're not always necessities but obligations. I've been a hermit for months heck years and have learned the POWER of saying no. I have paid off alot of debt but still have more to go. Encouraged reading these comments from others!!

@kimberlygillis9074 3 года назад

I agree. You will be surprised at how much money you can save just by packing your own lunch. Iam in the process of paying off a lot of major debts. I work eighty hours a week. I pack my own lunch. I do not purchase ANYTHING, unless it is a need. I also watch videos of other people that have paid off massive amounts of debt, which helps to keep me motivated. It can be done.

@tatianabritton6258 2 года назад

One of the biggest areas I found in saving money that now goes towards paying off my student loans was my phone bill. By myself with AT&T, I was paying $72 monthly and that’s WITH a military discount. With the cost of everything rising, I had a long talk with my family and surprisingly they were on the same page with cutting costs too. One day I randomly came across a T-mobile ad for their military magenta plan. I went from paying $72 for one line to pay $100 for four lines (each family member is responsible for paying me their $25) with WAY more perks than what AT&T was offering. Also, if you/your child is a college student, their student email address can be used to receive student discounts for streaming services (for example, i pay $1.99 for Hulu and 6 months free Amazon prime)

I’m tired of the cycle of debt, so I sold my Jeep to a dealership on Tuesday. I thought and prayed about it, and it was worth it for me. I currently live with my parents and work from home, so I don’t need a personal vehicle right now. Selling the Jeep allows me to pay off my credit cards by the end of the year while saving to pay cash for a reliable used vehicle. The only debt I’ll have is student loans, and I work to get rid of those asap.

Have a budget, know how much I owe. Paid off 2 credit cards, working on the last. School loan 100 a month until Feb when the real payments start. Owe 2 grand on bedroom set and 183000 on house. 30000 on school loan. Pay an extra 75 a month on the house and try to remember to pay extra on the credit card. Stick with it.

My problem is the little things that I spend money on is just the little things I buy and I feel are necessary to buy like buying cleaning supplies, pet food and supplies and just crap that I spend money on going to the grocery store. Before I know it, I'm $500 in the hole every month. I don't get my hair done or my nails done, I quit buying clothes for myself and just using what I already have. I make enough money and it looks great on paper and I never eat at restaurants, but it's the nickle and dime things that are killing my budget.

@tyrajun333 Год назад

Yeah. After cutting debt then you can live because you don’t have to pay debts. But you just got to keep your expenses low and income high. Too easy to think that getting that 500k house is an investment but it is only leaving you $500 a month. Not a lot to save a month

The temporary sacrifices I have to make to achieve my financial goals have really excited me and I am more motivated than ever to keep pushing through and reach my goals!

@ilovericecakes 2 года назад

I’m 26 years old and I relate to this! I’m exactly where you’re at right now. Except I just paid off my car and my boyfriend sold his so we’ll just use 1 car and he can save on payments. Since he’ll also be using my car, he’s helping out with half of the insurance which helps me. My car is also pretty good on gas and we try to gas up at Costco for the most part to save on gas. I used to always get my nails and toes done too which would cost be $150-$300/month depending on design, length and if I wanted gel (which of course I did). And my hair used to cost me $150 with tip every month to maintain the blonde. And I always ate out and spent money at the bars alll the time. After cutting back on my nails and only doing them for like my bday, I really have saved a lot. I also haven’t touched my hair in almost a year (so fricken proud of myself, it’s been hard). But since I’ve been cutting back on my nails, hair and my car is finally paid off-it has truly helped me focus on paying down my debt a lot faster so I could become financially free. Once my debt is paid off, I’d focus on investing my money into real estate and into stocks & crypto.

@RandallHallKaizenReiki Год назад

I spent so many years thinking I was too smart to need a budget. But when I wrote out my first budget and looked at all my debt, I was disgusted. I was wasting so much money, and two years later, it's a huge change. I can definitely see the light at the end of the tunnel. And now, I treat Savings and Charity as bills, not afterthoughts.

Expanding on budgeting and having spending money .. create seperate savings accounts for each bill/things you want Rent, Phone Bill, Car Insurance, Vacation, ETC.. each paycheck allocate an x amount to each I had an old co worker who taught me this . He did it for everything , even Christmas presents. He would put in like 10$ a paycheck and at the end of the year he would have like 1000$ for Christmas presents so he wouldn’t stress around the holidays ..
