I also like how you factor in a return on investment viewpoint when it comes to maintaining your quality of life. Why pay $50 for a service, when $20 will give me 90% of the value of the service? That last 10% is not worth it most of the time.

Depends, If I were buying a home today I would only take out a mortgage. Interest rates are still at or near historic lows and tax deductible, you can then also deduct your property tax and for a single person it will probably work out better than a paid house or condo. Just make sure you keep enough other liquid assets so can pay the mortgage off whenever you want. The mortgage tax deduction is one of the big reasons we have an affordable housing crisis. The deduction is actually reflected in higher housing prices.

Because interest rates are near historic lows use other peoples money and get a tax deduction. A mortgage interest rate of 3% after the deduction can translate into an effective mortgage rate of 2% or less depending on the state you live in. This leverages your upside on the house if you sell or flip the house and also protects your downside risk. If there is another real estate collapse just let the mortgage company foreclose or do a short sale.

Eat quality foods, avoid all toxins like plague (learn what they are, where lurking), exercise and care for body properly and avoid high-risk activities.

Health insurance has really gotten out of control. Having said that, please be careful switching to a less expensive, less comprehensive plan. Even relatively medical minor issues can really wipe a person out financially. I have good insurance now (I am a registered nurse and hospitals usually have good plans). If I were to leave and COBRA my insurance, the payments would be $900 + per month (insane). Having said that, I would maintain the insurance.

Ooooof, I wish my electric/gas bills were that low, tend to be near 250/mo for electric in summer and 150/mo gas in winter. Presumably majority of cost there is AC/furnace. Still trying to find ways to reduce that, it's hard though cause the house is poorly insulated and leaks a lot of air so short of turning AC/heater off they tend to run a lot (I also have renters so whilst I could myself wear socks/jacket, I want to keep house at a decent temp for renters). I suppose I could buy new AC/furnace units but it wouldn't fix poor insulation and I'd have to figure out how long pay off period would be and how long I intend to stay in this house (probably not forever).

:D

I don't have an electric scooter, but when I was 16, 17, 18, 19, I used to skateboard everywhere and honestly, I used to make pretty good time too! I'm 23 now and I picked up a longboard and honestly if it's within 5 miles and I don't have to carry a bunch of stuff back, it's really nice. Especially helpful because my car is really bad on gas and takes 93 gas. It adds up really quickly, especially right now.

I lost myself watching this video realizing how much I spend on shit that I don't need. But one argument which I always have with my little brother who has a budget similar to yours is I am not going to take my money to the grave. We need to budget expenses and live within our means but that doesn't mean we need to stop living. We have one life and especially covid 19 area economics has taught me no days are promised. I see so many young people go it makes me realize lets not plan so far in the future we stop living today. Thank you for your knowledge however. 👍🏼

I just changed my internet service from DSL to cable for $7 more up to $50. They expect you to keep it turned on 24/7 even though I only use it 3 hrs a day max. I refuse to do that because of health reasons of taking in wifi signals day and night and the modem is hot sucking up alot of elect I would imagine. So far I just turn it off and it takes 3 min to fire up when I'm ready to internet. So if I'm not happy I just switch back to DSL at a lower discount rate than I was paying...lol

Cable tends to share the bandwidth. So you might notice slow downs during peak hours which is sometimes unusable in certain areas. But if it works for you great! Save some money.

16:03 I see why my friend got a bidet at his place.

Damn, I wish my home repair bills averaged out to 30 dollars a month. lol But I also own a 100 year old house and old houses tend to be money pits.

I really need to know where you shop for groceries. I have never been able to survive in CA for such low costs. Cheers!!

Sprouts. I buy mostly unprocessed food like veggies and grains.

12:20 I'm going to change my own brake pads, and perhaps rotors as well. I will post a video of it soon.
