your explanation of your financial mindset in college is exactly how mine has been for the past 2.5 years😭 but budgeting is helping me SO much with accepting that i have to and will spend certain amounts each month. so instead of me feeling suuuper guilty about buying a $4 latte, i'll buy the latte and then think okay i now have $26 left to spend on coffee/bakeries this month. it's working really well for me and i highly suggest it to anyone else who's strapped for cash!

It's cuz we know how much a dollar can stretch when you travel around the world!

It sounds like you're living a really balanced NY life, you gotta live and enjoy yourself especially at your age! (though i'm only in my early
I wish I spent more money on experiences and good food when I was in my 20's instead of things!

I’m very impressed with your ability to eat & drink coffee at home!! That’s my biggest problem lmao frickin starbucks

[PuckCharlotteH]

I can't believe you only spend $281 dollars.. I've watched other youtubers spend $3000 in a week when they did this video!! Insanity!! Would love it if you could do a budgetting video/ financial advice :) Also curious as to what you do with the money you don't spend; do you save everything? Invest in stocks? Or something else?

the most reasonable what i spend in a week i've ever seen

giiiirl two mondays in a row that's intense :)

Yes girl. You’re videos have always inspired me to be more self-aware of my money and just lifestyle in general. Love it.

I love seeing this! In a world of fast fashion and "buy now, spend more", it is great to see people my own age who can take a step back and be comfortable with analyzing where their money is going, and then investing it in things that last (Roth IRA, real groceries lol, etc)

You're 22 and already doing so much. Wow ❤
Love from India and here I'm about to be 24 and i still have to take permission for everything from my parents. We are way behind I guess to just go out of the house and get our own house and thinking to settle in NY is like the craziest dream to think of, not that we can't do it, but need a lot of money and all to just go for it.

Love this video! I like how u explained why u were spending each, but I hope u don’t feel like u have to necessarily justify it to us. Girl if u r making that coin, don’t feel guilty for spending it!

I'm in my 4th year of college, and went to a new city. I worked all summer to have some money on the side, but I basically only use it for groceries and stuff like that. And like you, I kinda feel guilty when I spend that money on t-shirts, or more "random" things. But immediatly when I moved in my appartment, I started budgeting, and it helped much with feeling less guilty about spendind money on things that I enjoy (like Christmas decor or notebooks) ! Anyways, great video as always ! Keep up the good work ! ♥

[mmllaagg]

Loved hearing your thoughts on money! I recently started to keep a money dairy and it’s great to see your spending all on paper, it can really add up!

watching this in 2021 makes me miss pre-pandemic life😩

[tillyheal]

Tall, frugal but will splurge on music SOUL SISTER (also you look phenomenal in that lilac jumper, your eyes look incredible)!

The little fish are dried anchovies! They’re tasty on white rice!

[gracielyle]

I love this video! Really puts into perspective how much life in NYC costs, and how we can budget better here! I’m a student in NYC and am always trying to find ways to save $$.

[MicaelaHoo]

I've watched a few of these and I must say I'm impressed by your spending habits. Most others I've watched spend way more! I love how you eat from home a lot. You seem like you have a good handle on your finances. :)

[happylife]
