But then we decided to buy a new house, and HOAs have a strangle hold on home builders, so we are stuck in an HOA which means I can't work on my cars anymore. It is frustrating how the lube places over charge, charge you extra because your car took more than the 4 quarts they provide, then overfill your engine by a quart. Jiffy lube lost two oil caps in like 11 oil changes. So I switch to Midas, and after four oil changes, they lost a cap.

    I'm in my late 30s in the USA and I spend an average of $2400 a week if I divide my monthly budget into 4 weeks. That includes my mortgage, utilities, stupid amount of groceries because that is my splurge, school tuition for my daughter, household stuff, etc. Also that includes savings 40% of our income. If you take savings out of the equation it's roughly $1440 a week. Zero issues paying my bills, networth around 320k, and I'm good with it. Honestly I could cut it down even more if I wanted to but I spend $1000 a month on food for my family of three. My 30 year mortgage will be paid off in only 6 years (already paid off 34% since Sept 2020). Life is good.

    This would have impressed me more if the totals for a MONTH were shown rather than for a week. Some weeks, you may not get gasoline, or pay rent/mortgage, or out to eat, for example. Utility bills and phone bills and many others are for the month. How about charitable contributions or savings, investing through paycheck, etc.?? Accuracy climbs with a monthly budget.

    Your videos popped into my KZread feed while I was sitting in bed recovering from a terrible cold. Very entertaining and professional. You have another subscriber! I have spent a lot in the past week (probably about £600) while I've been ill, but it's the January sales and it was pretty much all stuff I needed or had planned to buy. I have always been on top of my finances and have my own unique method of budgeting that suits me. I had a surplus from my 2023 budget so was easily able to afford it. I look forward to continuing to watch, and congrats on the addition to your family.

    My week started off with $57 for doggy daycare and $74 for an eye exam for me, $29 for lunch at BJ’s restaurant and $40 at the grocery store on incidentals. Little Shih Tzu was sick when we picked her up from daycare and the following day we spent $450 at the vet., only to find out she probably pulled a muscle. We were too concerned about her to eat out, so we ate at home the rest of the week. I had time to look at the Chico ad and bought pants and a top for $96. I splurged on a song through Apple, and paid $1.40. on Saturday, I completed my tax return, and to reward myself we went out for a Mexican dinner and I had a margarita, hubby ordered iced tea, $58. Oh, and then my subscription to bark box was $22 for toys and treats for my little Shih Tzu.

That was just the steel. You said it though, it’s all relative. I looked at my income and I made $268,000 this month too, so it’s relative.

    @@annstaup4542 I always hesitate to say what I do, because my success is uncommon, but I am a Financial Advisor. After being an Advisor from 2001-2008, I became Dave’s ELP for finance in my area. Soon after that my business exploded. I tried to keep up with the growth, but I was drowning. At 1 point, I was working all day, coming home to eat dinner, then going back to work to do paperwork from 9pm-2am. I’d then get up around 7am and start the process all over again the next day. I only took Sundays off. It was SO hard, but I was addicted to the chase. I would bring in anywhere from $30M- $40M a year in new client dollars, so I was increasing my income by about $300k- $400k per year- year after year after year after year. It was exciting, but my health was strained, my relationships were strained- or non-existent, and I was exhausted. I didn’t do any hobbies and I didn’t really spend time with any friends. Dave helped me build an incredible business earning a few million a year, but it was consuming me. He then, through entire leadership, helped me understand how to manage it all. I was doing estate planning and trusts, taxes, investment planning, insurance, etc. I knew that I knew my craft exceptionally well, and I had people lining up who wanted to work with me and who wanted to be my client, and Dave Ramsey was sending me sometimes 3-6 referrals a day! It was crazy! I eventually hired an Operations Manager, then an Executive Assistant to answer my phone, emails, and texts, then an account manager to open all the new accounts and manage them…. I opened a couple offices in California, but then spread into Idaho, then Wyoming, then Oklahoma. I had a number of Advisors join me and I started shifting my focus to that of a trainer. Even today I had a webinar with Advisors from around the nation, teaching them about a new investment product which sounds good, but can be dangerous. I started teaching Dave’s principles to all my Junior Advisors. Its scary, but I know Dave’s advise almost perfectly before he gives it every time- except for last week when he told a woman to look into Unified Estate Tax Credits. That’s an area I wouldn’t have followed. I know perfectly after 15 years as his representative almost everything he’s going to say. I hired more staff and moved into larger and larger offices. Now, after 23 years as a Financial Advisor, I feel like I can take a break. I make 6 figures a month, and this week I only worked 2 days. Today I had a High School kid with me because I am his mentor. I sit on several local boards, and I donate a lot of money and time to my community. I’m meeting with a contractor tomorrow to discuss the build out of an ADU on our property because I feel like God has blessed us with the ability, and hence the responsibility, to care for our family. My parents are getting older, as are my wife’s, and I want to be prepared to care for them. When I say it’s uncommon, I mean that most Financial Advisors don’t earn what I earn, and I have Dave to thank for that. I still manage 4 territories for Dave, and I give those leads to my junior Advisors, who also run FPU and follow Dave’s principles in practice and word.
