I lost track of your channel for several years, when you went through something very sad, so I was so happy that your video came up in my feed and to find out that you now have TWO beautiful children! So happy for you!

You’re so kind! Thank you!

Oh Peter 😂 that was so cute when he said his quiet time is too long! From what we can see of the new place, it looks so cute! Congrats! I hope you guys will be so happy in your new home ❤

Congrats on the new house and appreciate all of the transparency! Happy new year!

Congrats on the move!! Great update 💛

I’m in the same situation. We have been saving for a new build next year and we are starting to put money out (driveway etc) and I’m having trouble letting go. We work so hard and it gives me a sense of security too, so I totally understand how you are feeling.

Yay another video!!! 🤩🤩🤩

Thanks for sharing!!

Hello, congratulations on the new house! I’m the same when it comes to saving money then spending it and feeling funny 😂 xx

Like it’s so good to have the money set aside but still hard to spend it. Haha

First and thank you for this info!

Congratulations Marissa! And thank you for sharing. That net worth is flying high. Looking forward to your “I’m a millionaire” video in the next 5 years.

Thanks for sharing! 🎉

Can you do a video on your Highlander and how you’re liking it with kids? Like what features have been really nice for kids/ family and what features or lack thereof are inconvenient? I want to get a Highlander as our next vehicle when we have more children but my husband is convinced we need something bigger like a suburban so I’m trying to get info from real parents on how they like their Highlanders. Maybe a comparison of the Highlander and the carnival? Thanks!

Whoo! Love it

I’ve been following you for years now and just purchased your template I’m excited to use it! Thank you so much happy near year :)

And meanwhile im leaving beautiful phoenix next weekend 😢😢😢😢😢

Marissa, may I ask? All these different saving categories look really nice! It makes me happy and very inspired. I'm wondering if this money in different categories lie in actual different accounts? Or if it's only categorized in excel and all the total money lies in just one same account in a clump? I hope I got my question properly across. Thank you! I've been watching you for some time now and I also love keeping my things organized! Have a good day☀️

all kept in one account and she uses the spreadsheet to keep track of what money belongs where

I think just her kids college fund is separate account

Hey! How do you keep track of the expenses throughout the month? Do you just keep each receipt and manually make changes daily or do you use a budgeting app that does it for you? Thanks!

What trim of the Kia Carnival did you get? I am in the market for a family car and was hoping you could share!

SX Prestige (top level) and honestly it’s so nice. Lol love the dual sunroofs, leather and media consol.

Congrats on the new home. Not sure why you need 2 cars. Thought in previous videos, you sold one because one car was enough. Did you find it difficult with one car?

We also sold one car because we weren’t planning to take it to Arizona and it was nice to have the extra cash at that time. 😊 now that we’re away from family, we feel like we need 2 cars. There were a few times in Oregon when we were in a pinch and family was able to help with the transportation. We can’t do that anymore.

Well you have a tight budget and sounds like you planned for it. Congrats on everything and also being so budget cautious given how young you are.

Oh the days when grocery budget was $250 lol 😅😅😅

Is there a penalty if you need to withdraw from the CIT savings account?

@TheBudgetingWife

Nope! You can withdraw fee-free as often as you need. High yield savings accounts used to only allow 6 draws a month but since the pandemic there has been no limit.

Her voice changed

I noticed this in the video and I have no idea why my voice is lower in this because it does not normally sound like this. Lol
