Way to go Carly! I Earn 150K per year, own 2 homes in NC and HI with about 10 years left to pay off one, student loan debt is 180K, no other debt. I have both 401K and Roth which my employer matches 6% for each. 3 adult kids (one is married with kids, one is in medical school, and one lives with us). My husband is a retired veteran. The monthly budget is around 13K coz we live in one of the homes. Just want to get rid of that debt if anyone has ideas. My financial knowledge is below average. Thanks in advance.

Why are people upset about RV/Mobile Home living being normalized? Yall do know everyone doesnt want to be in debt with a mortgage. Almost 95% percent of America regretted buying homes (2023). Now I get living in a tight car is not ideal but RV/Van/Bus/Mobile Homes are also really comfortable for many people. The American Dream was just that...A Dream. Create the life you want that brings you fulfillment without the pressure to be in debt for so called happiness or make an investment back.

@blackamericanlesbianprofes4357 6 месяцев назад

kioflife, there are various sizes AND luxury home-on-wheels. Several inside literally look like a fancy home and quite spacious! Can cost a similar price as a stationary home. But home-on-wheels also have to be maintained/taken care of so there are continuous maintenance costs. So, plan and prepare for either a home-on-wheels or a stationary home.

@kioflife 6 месяцев назад

@blackamericanlesbianprofes4357 it truly depends on the type of mobile/tiny home you're getting. If you are getting one with an engine the cost of maintenance will be a given but any home no matter on wheels or stationary requirements maintenance. I lived in a house for 20 years, gutters, toilet issues, roofing, drainage, lawn, etc... were needed annually or 5 years. It truly depends on the type of personal living standards you have.

@bestmoneyclassever 6 месяцев назад

Yes, I paid $792 for the lot and utilities (electricity, gas, water, trash, and internet). I paid for my RV with cash. Some ppl who do RV life have payments on the RV itself. For me, the $792 is everything I pay for housing! Does that make sense? Are you thinking of doing RV life?

@Janaya88 6 месяцев назад

@@bestmoneyclasseverThank you for responding. Yes I have been thinking about RV living very seriously. After careful consideration, I've realized that this lifestyle would allow me to save substantially, creating an opportunity to build real wealth and obtaining my life goals. I am a bit reluctant because I am a single mother of 1. He's 13 and is open to the idea. I've explained to him that this life would allow me to purchase a home in a couple of years. Being a mother has been my only hesitation, nevertheless I feel owning an RV whether fulltime living or recreational is a benefit. I like the idea that no matter what I would have somewhere to live if life takes a turn I don't expect. As a single mother this issue is very serious for me to have the stability of somewhere to live in an uncertain economy.

@bestmoneyclassever 6 месяцев назад

@@Janaya88 I recommend starting to save and invest NOW with your standard housing now too! Most of my savings started when I was living in an apartment! RV life isn't the key to saving, it's automatically investing a percentage of your pay consistently over time! That's what does it!

@Janaya88 6 месяцев назад

@@bestmoneyclassever I agree, I have investing knowledge, however cost of living is so high it's eating away at any opportunities to save. After assessing my finances this is the only area where I can cut cost. I literally have no other wiggle room. I'm working 2 different jobs just to make ends meet and it's still not enough to save. As a solo income household and single parent, there aren't many other options. My back is up against the wall, and I feel it might be time to take some drastic measures to secure my future.

@Blackjack09721 6 месяцев назад

This lifestyle is cool and all, but I feel like there is no in-between ever shown. You are either living so frugally you are basically working just to save. Or you are spending so much that you are working to pay off debt (but depicted in a way that you are living a successful lifestyle). I am not sure why only those extremes are always shown in a positive light?

Certainly living in a paid-off RV keeps her expenses down, and I applaud Carly's FIRE achievements. I wonder how this would compare to if instead, she were to put that money on a down payment on a home years ago and rent out the extra rooms. Her mortgage would have been fixed (vs the RV space rental which rises over time) and she would have gotten home appreciation and rent increase over time ... and one day may decide to move into that home. Years ago, I saw a statistic somewhere that says something like +80% of millionaires achieve so through home purchase. Another stats was "homeowners have an average wealth of $250K vs 25K for renters".

@Erin-rg3dw 6 месяцев назад

The mortgage may be fixed, but the housing costs definitely are not. Property taxes, maintenance, HOA fees (if applicable) - all of those can change year to year. The RV also gives her the option to relocate or travel without worrying about what to do with the house or trying to manage tenants, while keeping overhead costs down. Home ownership is definitely not for everyone and doesn't make the best sense for every financial situation.

@BroiledSourGrapes 6 месяцев назад

Property tax and HOA in Austin TX would cost more per year than her RV lot rent. And per your "renting other rooms out", my home is a sanctuary to get away from the world. I wouldn't want strangers living in it. Might work for some folks, but not for myself. As long as she is building equity in other areas(which she is, they referenced her investment assets) she's doing just fine. Most folks are either terrible savers because they can't afford to save, or just don't want to save, so a home is a locked in savings account in a way which attributes to their net worth. As long as you have the discipline to save in other areas a home isn't the only means to an end.

@ashlynsolis 6 месяцев назад

Not everyone wants a Mortgage, roommates, yard maintenance, property taxes, or to be in one place. Some people LOVE travel, no roommates, no yard maintenance, no property taxes, small, cozy, manageable living spaces and the freedom it brings.

@langhamp8912 5 месяцев назад

One is an appreciating asset while the other is a depreciating asset. However, the barrier to entry (to both) has been steadily rising, and for most whites in the US a fixed home is not possible in the neighborhoods they want. On the other hand, towing a depreciating asset behind another depreciating asset is essentially lighting your money on fire. There ARE a surprisingly large number of vacant homes in the US available for purchase in the 60 to 120K range; the problem most people see is that they are in predominately minority neighborhoods with very high tax rates (sales and property) and very little public infrastructure support outside of water/sewage/electric/roads. Thus, people like Carly in stuck in this middle ground of not wanting to be in an undesirable neighborhood while also being unable to afford a desirable neighborhood. Result: an RV whereby she manages to save money despite owning a depreciating asset being towed by another depreciating asset.

@gr8bkset-524 5 месяцев назад

@@langhamp8912 Many of the "kids" in my neighborhood in southern California are reaching 40 years old and can't afford to buy houses which now average $1M. They had a five years window 20 years ago when they graduated to live at home with their parents and save up for a down payment 15 years ago when average homes were $350k - $400k range, but that was not their priority. Instead, career, new cars or renting their own place was more important. Those that bought homes 15 years ago saw appreciation of $600k, plus $100k principal paid off, plus had lower monthly mortgage payments than rent, plus lower property tax than those buying now. I bought my home 30 years ago at 26, paid it off by 38 and retired by 45. I had a few roommates to help along the way, but the biggest thing I did right was to buy early in a rising market.

Is your hearing bad or do you just lack comprehension abilities??? She LITERALLY said at 8:56 "I don't necessarily want to retire, I want to spend my time reaching people and helping people turn things around with money". And, right before that statement she said that if she reaches her goal she would feel confident that she wouldn't have to work a standard job aka signifying that she would pursue her business that she mentioned in the words I quoted. Really, I think your jealousy (or contrarian mindset) has degenerated your ability to understand and process basic information.

While the FIRE savings method and overall viewpoint on money is not my style, it is admirable for the organization, and the due diligence of her lifestyle that is noteworthy. Definitely explains why she got her management job. What I would say to her is that to not play that scared in life and look into acquiring cash-flowing businesses and be around people who actually spend 100x more than what she has planned through FIRE as they are out there, this is quite normal, and they achieve this without batting an eye lash because they invest into being around others who do the exact same thing. When you play it small, you make small moves and it shows through the mindset. 😉

Espeacialy women don’t have that much time during their most fertile years. The price of financial freedom too being alone forever and dying alone isn’t fun. Guys we could have financial freedom and start family later in life. Women eggs expired

@9395gb 6 месяцев назад

Absolutely not true. Most men aren't starting families past the age of 50 years old as they don't want to raise children in their retirement age or spend their retirement funds on children. Both men and women are on the same fertility clock. The very few men who are having children later in life tend to be part of the 10 to 1% of upper class wealth who can afford money from their retirement funds to have children after 50 years old.

@@9395gbI agree. My wife and I have 3 kids. When our youngest one graduates, I’ll be 51 and my wife will be 49. Then we both get to retire the next year. I can’t imagine having little kids now.

RV living allows you to take risks and save in a debt free lifestyle to later pay cash for investment property. If you fail... you can move and start over.
