Old video I wanted to revisit. Yes, set aside your 30% for what you love. Still, thatb1000 spent on coffee will go a long way towards investment over time. Keurig and others do amazing at home coffee options.

I love how you don’t recommend to deprive yourself of cafe coffee! Its true if you enjoy it and it makes you happy its not worth it to skimp on it.

Jen T yes! I agree. Why deprive yourself of something you love doing at such a low cost? Whilst also supporting local businesses? Buy coffees! Everyone! Lol
@hkgweigwei5 жыл бұрын
Christina Polimos I’d rather purchase a nice coffee machine, like Nepresso to splurge on coffee at home. You still save money in the long run without compromising a cup of nice coffee.

I used the very same budget book last year or earlier this year. About the coffee a day thing, I make my own 95% of the time. I didn't invest in an expensive coffee machine either. The one I have I found at a car boot sale. I believe it's Stainless Steel. I'm not sure what the name of it is, but it makes espresso on the stove top. I love the ideas of investing in education and passive income. 💡 💡 You are brilliant!

Hi Isabelle, thank you for sharing this advice. As your new subs, I thought you have always honest and humble. Unlike some other youtubers who may be more privileged to make purchase after purchase, their videos of giving advice sound contradicting as their lifestyle doesnt show that. You, however, seem to have good head on your shoulders and justify your purchases.

When my husband and I started dating and we would go out to eat, he would order like 3 different appetizers and a full meal and most of the food wouldn’t get eaten and if we brought home leftovers they would get forgotten. I was raised to not waste food! With in our first month of dating We started splitting every meal, 1 appetizer and if there was room for dessert we split that too! We enjoy the same type of foods and our taste buds and tummies are satisfied. Growing up my mom would say “eat till your half full” . I can honestly say eating a whole bunch of scrumptious food and enjoying it in the moment is no fun when you’re in pain afterwards because your tummy feels like it’s going to explode. Moderations can be so difficult when your drooling over something like ice cream nachos from Buffalo Wild Wings…. Heck I dream about eating those! They have these deep fried cheesecake bites mixed in with cinnamon sugared tortilla chips, vanilla ice cream, hot fudge and Carmel sauce drizzled all over with whip cream and topped with maschiano cherries 🍒 To buy all the stuff to make ice cream nachos you could feed a crowd so I save that for fun get togethers. Its just my husband and I so it’s a real treat when we go out for just dessert 🍨 😋 Personally, I don’t use credit cards it to easy to just swipe it. When I used to put all the stuff on the card for Christmas gifts…. I hated paying the cards off, which took about a year☹️so I started freezing my cards in a plastic cup of water and when I wanted to use them my rule to myself was no cheating you have to let those cards defrost at room temperature so I’ll have time to think about my little impulsiveness 🙄I eventually didn’t desire to have credit cards. Training yourself to live within your means can be quite challenging when you have lived a life where your income was very good and then boom its gone due to a freak accident or your diagnosed with some terminal illness It forces you to think about everything in a different light. It’s all how you look at things…I hated going through changes but I can look back at my challenges and say I learned how to stretch, I learned how to fix and make stuff, I learned that cheap /free entertainment could be as much fun as blowing $50 at the movie theater….paper, pencil crayons and doodling whatever comes to mind or shooting a bunch of left over rattle can paint from your garage into a bucket of warm water and dipping your shoes carefully can make you so happy with the results that you 🤩 twinkle✨ . By the way I have never watched a video like this and lots of good tips, definitely will be checking out this topic. Thank you and will be forwarding to family and friends. Life is good! Cheers!

I love how to save/manage money videos too...or simply how to live a smarter life videos. Guess what, I too am currently saving for a preloved Chanel Reissue as well.🙌 I'm thinking a size 225 for me. Question tho. With your entertainment monies....if you have leftover funds that you do not use each month, what do you do with that money? Do you save this money to purchase a nice bag? Does it rollover into the next month? I'm little confused there. Thank you for sharing your tips as I've found it to be much helpful. 💕

I'm so glad you love those videos too! I feel so smart and responsible after watching videos from money/life gurus!😆I can't wait to add the Reissue but I am thinking of consolidating my bag collection first as I don't want to end up with way too many bags! So may be next year.. With the leftover entertainment money, I move it to another account (I've name this account "extra") and this pool of moneys is usually what I use to purchase luxury goods with! So I put any extra earnings and leftover money in here! Xx

@@IsabellesStyle Listen to me hun, because the feeling I just got from reading your response. This is exactly what I do too.😁 When I tell you the feeling I feel reading that you push those extra funds over really makes me know I'm doing something right, I got goosebumps. I'm learning as this was one of the hardest things for me to figure out and that's how can I afford luxury. One other thing, it is find if it takes me long to save. I prefer this time as it allows me that time to know if it's and item I really want forever or if it's an item I'm lusting over at the moment. I can't afford to make a mistake on my choses. Thank you for being here and I hope you don't mind tons of questions....I value your opinion MUCH!💕

This is a very helpful video, especially for those just starting their career. It's important to have the right footing, otherwise, you can get into a financial mess. I can say the new generations are luckier as they can learn useful tips from the Internet. However, I do strongly recommend using a Debit card or cash instead of a credit card. Cos you can only spend what you have and not via 'borrowed money' from credit cards. I know for sure having a credit card is tempting for you to splurge and most people have insufficient self-control when faced with retail temptations😅😅😅 With a debit card, if you haven't enough money to buy that luxury item, it makes you work harder and save more. It also allows you time to re-think again if you really want that bag or is it just a flitting whim & fancy. With the money saved from an impulse purchase, you can then spend it on an item that you really, absolutely love later on. Hope this extra tip has been helpful to viewers❣😊😊

This is the second time I am seeing this video and I started a budget book this year afterwards...however, the one thing I differ is that in my opinion, I feel the in-store experience is a big part of buying luxury...also, Ive been going through your videos and have seen a work bag video, but would really like to see a review of the givenchy antigona... I have seen other reviews on it but I got interested in it after seeing you with it. So, you've influenced me for that bag :-) and I would like to have your opinion.

LoL re: glamorous jobs. I'm in IT and non-profit so I definitely know what you mean. Do you ever find the smaller bags feel less useful? Not a waste of money because if you love the look, it's not a waste. But just that you use them a lot less? It seems I use the same 3 bags repeatedly because the others are just cute and don't carry enough.

This may be an unpopular opinion but if you need to adjust your budget in order to “afford” luxury items, you probably shouldn’t be buying luxury items in the first place. The income needed to justify purchasing luxury items far exceeds what 99% of people make.
