I honestly thought you tracking your debt payoff in your titles was smart and innovative. No one else has done it and that’s why I followed you.

You could buy some frames for your finished trackers and hang them like certificates. I think that could elevate the look and shows how proud you are :)
Or whenever they get to be too many, copy them and print them in a smaller size and than put them in a nice frame 🖼️🙂

[pollygiblin]

I discovered you when you did your debt free scream on the Dave Ramsey show. I went back and watched most of your videos because I was so impressed with your accomplishment and how you approached it. I appreciate your transparency and your willingness to share!

[hi_midiacreative]

Consistency and a comfortable tracking method is the key to budgeting! Thank you for posting these options for us.

[operalove]

Yep, I remember the balance total on your YouTube videos. It was a great visual. And a very transparent gesture from you on your journey 😊

Track your spending!
Know your triggers.
Save receipts, bills, checks, money orders, warranties, leases, etc.

I was with you in those days! It was highly satisfying to see your debt amount incrementally reducing each month. The progress you’ve made is inspirational!

[leslieyoung]

Another great video Sarah! Thanks for the inspiration...

I did John commuta's system and just worked out the math. It usually works out that you're paying the smallest amount off first and working your way up. I really like your visual idea, but for whatever reason seeing a credit card paid off in 3 months and then putting all of that extra money into the next card and then the next and so on, was really satisfying.

[fatimaellis]

I was with you all the way...in fact you give me the motivation to keep it going on my own journal paying my student loan and my car...it took me around 4 years and your videos really keep me on track 👣

[flourescent]

Yep I've been with you for about 3-4 years. So inspired by you and your journey. Xx

[fixmj]

Yes. I was with you in those days and I LOVED seeing the debt left numbers in your titles.

[PidasianHippie]

I was one of those who loved seeing your debt payoff numbers in the titles of each of your videos. In fact, I even got concerned about your dedication when you slowed down in the weeks before your moved to Arkansas. Little did I know that you were working on "bigger and better" plans. It was very exciting to see you move to Arkansas where you kicked debt in its butt!

[Sheila-ruiu]

Absolutely loving your videos! Happy Holidays!

[gettintherejanice]

yes I was there loved the count down it drew me to watch more of your videos I think I was very excited to watch the numbers go down. it also helped me when I had to take YouTube breaks to find in the right order date is harder to find

[anitaroberts]

I found your channel when you were about six months into your DFJ I think. I definitely found it motivating to watch your progress as it helped me focus on my own. I too like spreadsheets. I have one file with a bunch of linked tabs that calculate various aspects of my financial life. It's awesome. I'm glad that you still make these videos because it's inspiring to see your success! Wishing you a very happy and prosperous new year, Sarah!

[tiffanysurowiak]

I just found your channel today and have binge watched for hours. You are officially my favorite YouTuber of all time. THANK YOU for making these videos and keeping it real. You get me stoked to save.

[dhines]

I was with you when you were paying off debt and I remember being amazed at your numbers as you neared the end!

[sandrafromscotland]

Thanks Sarah. 💙 Visual Progress trackers. You're so creative 👏 I like yours going left to right & the calendar is a good one. Yes I remember seeing it on your videos & it was good to see it going down. 😊 What works, works 😂

[carolw]

I'm relatively new to finding your channel, Sarah, but I'm always happy to see a new video from you. Great tips for all "types" of people because our motivations definitely don't all work the same. I'm definitely using your spreadsheets, but I may try one of the visuals (probably the stickies) for 2021. Happy New Year to you 💗!! And thanks for the content!
