I used to be very poor. As I climbed the financial ladder, I continued to live like the big bad wolf is at my door. Lol I'm headed to work wearing 10 year old clothes and driving a 2009 Toyota Rav4. I DON'T CARE WHAT PEOPLE THINK!

[janicegagnon]

I paid off my mortage last month, worked hard the past two years to get it paid off early and so excited that I paid it off almost 9 years early. A big win

[kelleyspears]

I can adamantly say that being single is actually more frugal than being married and trying to balance the wants of two people who don’t pull in the same direction.

[deborahanthony]

The great thing about living alone is that you have complete control of your finances. No one else to answer to. You know where the money is going without someone else spending money you don’t have. Eat what you want when you want. Do what you want. Go where you want. Do what makes you happy.

[sherrylewis]

I always thought I was horrible with money. Turns out, the ex husband I sent back to his mom was the problem! Since we split up (25 yrs ago) I have more money as a single person than I ever did as part of a couple. Who knew? (Not recommending divorce as a money fix but it turned out to be a bonus effect, LOL)

[kelleyspears]

Couldn’t agree more with only working for what you are paid for. I’ve put in 18 years of grueling work at a job I actually really love, but after being passed over for a promotion, I realized it’s not worth it. Now the same supervisory job is open again and I’m almost certain I’m not going to apply. It’s a raise, but at some point the stress just isn’t worth it. And neither is the feeling of betrayal for being passed over the first time.

Just remember that when you without a mortgage then you are still paying property tax and home insurance
You still have housing costs

[celesteyoung]

I got divorced 6 years ago and didn't really know about retirement he did all the stuff with the money I was a stay-at-home mom so I have nothing for retirement

Just started putting money towards it now$3, 000 yeah

[gretelwhite]

I have lived alone most of my adult life, ever since I got past the house share stage in my 20s, and wouldn't swap it for anything!
I have one job and, at the age of 61, cut back to 4 days a week. Everything is paid, so nothing owing. I managed to pay off my mortgage in one of the more expensive areas of the UK 7 years early (working in the not-for-profit sector means wages aren't humungous, but I do do something I really believe in, so this overpayment was a little by little strategy).
Right now, I am re-evaluating what I have in my home and am just about to start selling things on ebay to realise the value of things I don't need. I am also a crazy crafter, so am setting up a small online shop to sell things I can make that can yield some additional income, and this can go on when I retire next year.

I like the tip with pretending you earn less money than you actually do ✌️

[Michelle-bwxg]

Love the singles videos. Over 50 years single and typically 50% take home to housing (high cost area). Commuting is my 2nd job. Frugality and careful choices are essential, as well as having an emergency fund and planning for retirement. Really enjoying moving toward simplicity and focusing on needs while working toward a life without high stress work.

[gmklxym]

Dont go above and beyoynd they take advantage if your kindness

[amandagillard]

Hey Kate, I haven’t talked for ages. You are amazing. Your advice has helped me to turn my life around. I have financial freedom. Not many people know because I have you and the k squad. I have a buffer, an emergency fund and a KiwiSaver account too. You keep me focused. My future has options now. Thank you.

[veronicwbrennan]

An older woman told me years ago to always earn my wage but never give your emplyer fully what you are capable of because they will always want more. Now many years retired I always lived by her advice.

[lizs]

While I’m nowhere near living alone (married mom of 3 😂) We are a single income family and lots of these apply to our lives. The budget buffer just saved us allot. Car maintenance of $1800 I was thinking it would be $800 😅 thankfully we had a budget buffer it has helped us have less stress. What would have been a credit card charged emergency a year ago now is just an inconvenience that we have to replenish our buffer.

[JudithMcPheron-pblv]

Thanks Kate. Beginning of the month and already broke. Expensive May, June graduations, increased expansion pledge for the church and my own extravagance has landed me here. Going to tighten all the hatches for the small and large leaks so I can $ Save $ for ER and "future me" again. Thanks for everything!❤😊❤❤

[karenharvey]

You are so smart on that "work what you're paid for". I went overboard on all my jobs and guess what, never got any extra. Worked my whole life and not much to show for it. If you are willing to do 2 people's jobs, your boss is smart enough to not pay you extra. Take that to heart.

[LorettaNance]

I absolutely pay myself first on payday. Sinking funds and emergency fund get paid first. I do a $5 challenge each year, saving each $5 bill I get back in my change. This year I used the money from the $5 challenge as my spending money at WDW.

[kathleenpayne]

Good morning kate . We made it back from vacation UNDER BUDGET . And was still able to put my $1000 in savings . Thanks for helping me do that

Saving something, really anything, will start to transform your life
