How to Start Cash Stuffing | Cash Envelope System for Beginners | Dave Ramsey Inspired | Budget

Take control of your finances and your future with the cash envelope system!

When creating your first zero-based budget, just remember to be patient with the process. A zero-based budget doesn't mean you end up with $0 at the end of the month, it simply means you are telling each dollar where to go (instead of wondering where they went)!
YOU CAN DO THIS!

Weekly Cash Stuffing

“Budgeting is hard but being broke is also hard” ma’am! This is a bar.

Emily, First of all I love your channel. I am 66 years old and never saved and was always in debt. I am happy to say that I am debt-free and am budgeting, saving, and trying to beef up my emergency fund (which I have completed baby step one). I just would like to encourage us “seniors” that you can do it, even if you need to sell your home and rent or move in with your child temporarily. We sold our home and paid off $40, 000 of Credit Card debt. Then we bought a new car (cash) and opened a savings account. We paid for our car so no payment there. I don’t regret selling my house. God has provided our everything. ❤

I’m an expat living in Japan and it is such a cash based society and this would work PERFECTLY. I’m definitely giving it a shot!

I wanted to start with those cute journals like everyone else was doing but then i realized it was kinda counterproductive since the goal is to save money lol so instead while still getting something cute i just went to the dollar store and bought their little 4x6 photo albums lol the dollars fit in perfectly and if you wanna be descreet you can add photos to cover the money when its not full lol.. and if you wanna use a box they got cute ones too and still cheap

When you start stuffing you actually forget the money is in the envelopes.

Love how real you are! Sometimes things really are as cut and dried as "stop spending". It's important to keep in mind what you're trying to reach (which goes back to the "why" like you said!) Amazing video!

[zoeseden]

Hi Emily! So glad that you show your face and that you tell it like it is….some of us need tough love!

[leftyplannergal]

Thank you for this. I went about this all backwards. I saw a video about cash stuffing, got the stuff to do it then didn't know how to do it with so many of my bills already debiting from my account. Your one statement of stuffing for the following month made EVERYTHING click for me.

[debipersson]

Thank you so much for doing this. Even though I have been doing the system for a while. I still learned some thing. As always, I love your videos!

[jaimemccreary]

Great video!!! Just started cash stuffing this year and I love it!!! Definitely takes a new mindset!!!

[christineoreilly]

From another Mom of 4, you are doing a great job!! Love the honesty!

[laneishapeterkin]

Awesome video I needed this when I started with the cash envelope systems years ago. I had no clue what I was doing so I didn’t stick to it. But I kept going back to it and now I’m doing it. Love your videos 💜

[scatteredthinkingmom]

I totally agree with all the points you made. My life literally improved due to cash stuffing.

[brittanymueller]

Such a wonderful, informative video as always❣ I wish your videos were around when I had started my cash stuffing journey!

[katelosteter]

Just beginning my cash envelope journey! Been working on my family’s budget (which is so hard bc we never had one) and bought your A6 chic wallet from the presale! This video was so informative and helpful! Thank you!

[barbiescave]

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. I am obsessed with your videos. God bless you and your family ❤❤❤

[jenniferward]

This video was gold 👑🌟. I loved what you said, budgeting is hard but so is broke, you just have to choose your hard.

I love your comment about the credit cards. It is absolutely too easy to overspend with them! We find ourselves blowing the grocery budget because we can use the credit card. We have never had to pay interest, and always pay them off before the billing cycle. However those $20 charges/overages add up fast!

[alittleofitall_]

Yes!! When we were swiping it was just it was just money we didn’t see so it didn’t matter! Now that we actually see the money *leaving* our- it has totally changed our habits! “I stop spending” 🤣🤣 love it! The months are never the same! That’s so true! Awesome AWESOME video love! 🩵🩵

New sub! I’m in the VERY beginning stage of cash stuffing. I purchased the small binder and the fancy envelopes for the more important bills..mortgage, car payment, food, utilities and emergency funds. Other smaller things I purchased just small plain paper envelopes, used a whole punch and out them in my little binder. They fit perfect!
