hi friends! feel free to respond here with which habit you resonated most with or a habit I didn’t mention ✨ appreciate you all and hope you have a lovely weekend!

particularly, i think americans in general give to much worth to money. they are always buying, coffee here and there, not cooking at all, you see Christmas, it is only a nice Christmas or a real one when you buy at least 5 gifts each haha this is somehow ridiculous. europeans are much of a saver ones and they give more worth to just simply sitting, cooking and eating together, going to the park and bringing their healthy picnic basket. US has another culture and it is the shopping/spending money culture, more money better. it is hard to break this cycle and habit.

I love love love this vid. I feel like it’s so easy to watch ‘influencer’ vids every day and have that comparison seep in over their lifestyle & $$$, but this sort of vid just makes me feel uplifted instead and encouraged about my own personal finance journey. thank you michelle 🙏 💛 would also love to see more of these, so you’ll always have a view from me if you put more out!

Hey Michelle! This is so random but the sunscreen under your sink was recalled recently! It’s the yellow Neutrogena one. It was because some batches had toxins and they weren’t able to really pinpoint which batches. I switched to Sunbum’s Mineral sunscreen after that though and I really like it - it’s reef friendly and doesn’t make my skin feel oily :)

[leahmoore]

Also the editing on this video is soo good!

[emilyfiri]

That last one is totally me! Thanks for the advice Michelle!!

[katarinagreer]

very helpful video!! definitely resonate most with the emotional buying...

[leahmoore]

Love the finance videos!! Much needed!!

One thing that has helped me so much with impulse shopping is keeping a “things to buy” list on my phone for clothes, home stuff, tech, pretty much anything. This is great for two main reasons- I have to pause and think about whether I actually need something, and if I do ever have money to splurge I can buy something I’ve had my eye on for a while instead of a bunch of small junk

[jasminewhatlikeitshardbabe]

Love this video! Definitely important ✨

[lanagoldsmith]

Thanks for this, Michelle! And if you don't mind my asking: what paint color are the walls in your living room (around 47 seconds in)? Love the warm neutral. Thanks!

[tanner_jw]

These were some awesome tips! Definitely gonna try them out

[karswizzle]

That salad you made in #11 looks absolutely delicious — recipe please! :)

[judzarintocomak]

I'm new to your channel. this is one of the videos that I love to watch..Judy from Philippines.

I am only 29 seconds in, and the fact that you have admitted that you have, or have had these bad habits- let alone making this fundamental to your presentation- already makes you more valid than any other money "guru" do's-and-don'ts video I've clicked.

[stephenethan]

Those were some great points. I should have thought of those in the Bad Habits video I made.

[marissawallace]

I find it ironic that you are talking about not impulse buying at Target... then a target ad pops up 😂 love your videos! Thanks for sharing!

[TheKerryBerry]

I just got engaged this month so I need to try and break some bad buying habits to save for our wedding!

[maariyam]

Bought a house earlier this year and the biggest thing that has helped us save/curb spending is to buy used! We furnished a lot of our home with FB marketplace finds which meant waiting to buy if the specific item wasn’t listed. If we are feeling spendy we will go to the thrift store vs Target or the mall and end up spending sooo much less overall.

[Emilyghe]

Yes! Need to be paid in health! Not necessarily money
