It’s crazy how as a college student I could make $50 last so long and now I can spend it so quickly!

Would love you to do like a series of this. I really like hearing about other people's spending (even when it's not perfect) because it makes me think about how I use my money. In reality, no weeks are the same. I also travel fairly often, and like you, I want to be able to treat a friend if they're visiting. I'd love to see you do this every so often (maybe seasonally?) if you were interested. Like it'd be cool to see you do this around Christmas or a friend's wedding in addition to less eventful weeks. I find it helps so much to make money feel less stressful when others are willing to openly discusss it.

You should do a full month of spending like the actual CNBC Millennial Money. I’m going to be moving to LA soon and would really like to gain a better perspective on the costs
When you said the amount of your rent I was like wow that’s awesome then you said it was per week 😆

My rent for a month is 820$ and that includes an entire garage and it’s a 3 bedroom duplex with a bath and a half full basement with washer dryer hookups living room dining room kitchen and mud room. Also a large front porch and small back yard! That’s in western/ upstate NY in between Rochester and Syracuse.

I love this kind of video, I would be interested in watching another series of what you spend but a full week in LA! My husband and I bought a house a year ago here in Arizona, we have a mortgage but thankfully no other debt - we paid off our cars & no student debt!
I avoid skipping the ads in your videos because your channel deserves everything it can get 🤩 pls do more videos like this!!

this is actually such an interesting video idea! i eventually want to move to LA for work so this is super helpful! thank u💕
i would love to see a video like this again for a different week just to see the variety of your spending throughout different circumstances! absolutely loved this video!
I love your videos so much! You’ve quickly become one of my favorite channels ❤️
I love this video idea so much! I'd love to see other ones but in different circumstances! (traveling, regular week in LA, holiday season, etc.)
I think it’s weird that it’s expected that bridesmaids need to pay for everything for the bride. Being in a wedding is already a very costly event. I too am getting married and would never expect my girlfriends to take me away for a weekend and cover all the expenses.

For my friend we covered the bridal shower and her bachelorette party. We had a large party and we were frugal. I didn’t mind it, I wanted her to have a ton of fun!
This was such a well put together video!! So fun to watch :)
this was so interesting! i just started to budget (lol like this week) and it is crazy to see how much money one can spend...not thinking about what I am buying and swiping my debit/credit card... lol it adds up quick. so far i have done great haha hope to keep it up 💕
This was an amazing video!! it was really interesting and girl keep making videos like these!!!
I love this morgan! Thank you for this video, hopefully theres more coming.
I absolutely love this video idea! Would love to see one of these every few months (one per season)
For those commenting about her rent, it's actually not that bad (for her area, the townhome prices [aka HOAs, misc fees] and the amount of space that she has). The total monthly fee is $1,796.30 per month. I know a friend living right by UC Irvine paying $2,065 a month for a small studio APARTMENT which is not including utilities and her parking space charge. You all have to consider the cost of living in California is outrageous and in order to live in a "nice part" (in comparison to new, suburban areas) of Los Angeles it is even more expensive. I would pay extra for the safety and the security of myself and my belongings as a woman living with another female roommate.
been watching your videos for years & I NEVER comment so hello !! absolutely love all of your content, keep up the amazing work!
Hi, Morgan! Love you and your videos! You are my favorite youtuber!❤
this was super helpful! Also, im so surprised for the amount you pay for rent!! Especially for LA! Great video!💕
Love that you shared a random week, that included travel! I posted a What I Spend In A Week video as well, but it was a pretty standard work week - it's interesting to see the differences!
Millennial money! Love that series
love these!!
Do another version!!! Would LOVE to see it!
Loved this video! For at home workouts, I would recommend Sydney Cummings. She has bodyweight and weighted workouts ranging from 10-60 min. You will definitely be sweating and feel the burn if you go at your intensity!
“millennial money” yes! I love that series on CNBC
I love the way you edit!
Please do this video for the holidays! I think that would be interesting to see!
I really liked this video!! more pleeeease :)
loved this video!!! you should definitely do it again!
I don't even make 700 a week 😂 so glad I don't live in LA or have many friends
Watching these videos make me feel better about my spending 😂
I’d love to see different variations of how much you spend in a week!!
Just wanna say thank you for your time and advice. I’m moving to Fresno, CA from Buffalo, NY. Big help, even the college videos being a full time worker & student!

I liked that this was basically a vlog style version of the Money Diaries Refinery 29 does! (Most of those people spend way more than you, so don't feel bad.)
i loveeeee all your videos
I live in Ireland and spend 405euros a month on rent and then probably another 150 on food, gas, socializing, etc.. University is expensive!! Love the video Morgan. Would love a video on a month's whole spending in LA :)
I will give you Caroline’s moms healthy avocado chicken salad recipe for your soup recipe. Haha. Miss you.
this vid is bomb!!
You should have all of your yt friends do a video with you where you all compare what you spend. That way we know what most you tubers in la spend their money on
Just found your channel!!! ❤️ ✨SUBSCRIBED✨ I love the way your videos are made and your whole esthetic! LOVE that California does that with plastic bags! I’m in Iowa and we still have plastic bags in the plenty sadly 😢 $105 for an oil change just made me nauseous! Here it’s about $40 and about the same to do it yourself but you get to pick the better quality filter and oil when you do it yourself! You are such a very money wise person it seems already! You also already seen where you know you can do it better i mean like the coffee, that SOOO many people are used to paying everyday! My house mortgage on a $58,000 house monthly is about $260, and $60 for house insurance, I don’t have property taxes escrowed so we account for them like a regular bill. $70-$90 for 2 people for dinner with some lunches for a week. $30 a week for gas for myself and $50 for my boyfriends truck. Just some of my bills for ya! My highest is US Cellular which is a cell phone company. Myself and my boyfriend both have iPhone X from last year with will be paid off next June, and both have Apple watches that will be paid off in September 2020. Then I have a 2018 12.9” IPad with the matching keyboard and it’s my baby (next to my dog Ragnar) so that bill is total about $318 with myself paying $184 and my boyfriend paying $134. He doesn’t pay the cost of the payment on my tablet.
Love your vlogs

that is a super cheap bachelorette party haha good job! i'm 32 but i found this so interesting and it made me miss my mid-20s!
Hi Morgan, love you and your channel. I was wondering what type of mic you use? :)
Hooooooly crap i started watching you when you filmed with those 2 other girls. It’s crazy to see how far you’ve come
Honestly that’s not terrible for spending. I’ve seen others do this and they spend like $1000 in a week without rent
crying I wish I could find a place with your rent! i respect you were super open and real
I spend this week (including rent and bills for the week) 195 dollars (my rent and bills per month is 275 dollars). I live in Iasi, Romania (eastern Europe)
I'd love different versions of this!
Where did you get your rug?? I'm looking for one and yours is so cute!

I spend about $200 a week on rent, and I live in Birmingham! I got this budgeting book recently where I write down every purchase so I’m aware of where my money goes... and oh man, that was eye opening 😅
Did you and all your YT friends plan this!? I swear I just scrolled through my sub box and like 5 other girls posted this same vid after you did. Im loving this marathon of everyone’s spending! It’s giving me the satisfaction of going through someone’s purse but without having to 😂

Maybe she doesn’t drive very much. A lot of KZreadrs seem to prefer taking an Uber.
Can I just say that Caroline is so gorgeous!! She has this early 2000s T Swift vibe about her.
I live in Portland, OR and spent $66 this week. $30 for groceries and $36 for gas. Then if you want to add in rent, utilities, car payment and insurance and other bills like my phone, it adds up to $427 for this week.
The bags are in Canada too you get charged 5 cents per bag . I know in pei there illegal now.
I think your spending and expenses are really normal and your rent is a good deal!
im from savannah!! so sad I wasn't there when you were
I have a Volvo and need full synthetic oil, and its about $100 for oil changes
This is so me, i'm far too scared to total up how much I spend in a week hahah
this is a very smart video idea.
I divided my October spending by 4 and I spent a total of $401.25 a week in October. I was $156 over budget in October though. 😫 I bought some Christmas gifts. but this includes my rent, car payment & insurance. I live about 30 min outside of Houston. :)
I have a BMW too and my oil changes are like $80-90 in rural Missouri so that actually sounds like too good of a deal for LA lol full synthetic esspensive 🥴
I get free oil changes bc I take it to where I bought it. But I spend a lot more in a week than I used to, but such is life.
I have a strict £50 ($65) a week budget, that I almost always stick to, and my weekly rent is £74.6 ($96.54) excluding bills - I'm a student in Scotland living off student grants.
I think a video like this that would be interesting is maybe "what i spend in a month in ____" because there you could/we could see actually how your spending habits fluctuate every week.
$100 on a BMW oil change is it bad. Actually, a little on the lower side considering you’re in LA.
Where is your top from?
how did i just find your channel !!!!!
My husband and I spent $2500 last month total including rent and that was for two of us. We agreed we have been spending too much and need to cut back lol. We live in the Midwest and have a cheap apartment.
Do a video on what you asked Adrienne to pack you and what you added on!
I also just found a huge stash of gift cards haha
I live in Valparaiso IN and I pay $385 in rent for the MONTH!! In a 2 bedroom apartment with one roommate. I can’t believe rent is so high in these big cities 😅
It is a good idea to save money for the future and have an emergency fund that is equal to six months of living expenses and stay out of credit card debt.
anyone else remember when she started out on a collab channel with some other girls? i was just thinking about that. you could say i’ve been here from the beginning lol
