Just don't deprive your health trying to save some money. Health is the best wealth out there!

Another good tip is not buying the latest gadgets. Why spend $1000 on the latest phone when you can buy a phone for $200 that does the exact same thing? That's an extra $800 that can be used towards investing, or put into a savings/retirement account

I love the library comment. Our library has a cricut vinyl cutter, a sewing machine, a serger, 2 3-d printers, and an x carve which is a small cnc machine for cutting wood in their makers studio that are all free to use!

Love the advice as it pertains to investing too.

1. Wait 1-3+ days after researching before getting into a project->if you want it now, you're probably the exit liquidity of early buyers

2. Not making decisions when fatigued/emotional->wait until you're feeling gooood to make great decisions

3. Say no to "meh" or "kind of good" opportunties->go for the best ones that you're excited about-this will allow you to focus your energy/resources

Wow, these are truly some minimalist ideas! But I like that you're playing into the psychology of things, and I LOVE that you're recommending ditching the financial advisors! Buy into the S&P and don't touch it until you're ready to retire is probably the easiest way to be profitable. Thanks Nate!

Thank you so much for all of these great tips! I try save money but an auto function is a great idea. Also meal prepping and not eating out is HUGE! I recently invested in an additional freezer as well so that I can make freezer meals and snacks ahead of time for my family (which eats a ton) every little bit helps. :)

Simplifying areas of clutter in our lives is my favorite - it reduces decision fatigue, mental clutter and expenses. The intentional pause and waiting 24-48 hours is also helpful when we fall into shopaholic behaviors and one-click purchases.

[nischa]

24 hour rule is one of my favourites and has definitely saved me a LOT of money! Thanks for another great video- always an inspiration!

NATE OBRIEN UPLOAD! Love you're content man, its always top notch

Every January I quit caffeine and alcohol. Great to reset, give yourself a break, and save some money to start the year.

[SunniDae]

Very practical tips, Nate. Thank you!

[purpleparade]

I hadn’t noticed you were the same black shirt for all your videos. That proves your point that people usually don’t care that much about that as we think they do when we buy all those clothes. I’ll keep some different styles but not as much as to need to be impulsive to buy new clothes all the time

[avenuerevenue]

Nate, I LOVE that you mentioned "AUTO-INVESTING" which not only helps to build wealth "automatically" but also it "declutters your life" and you can focus on other things, too. Same like you, I also slimmed down on my cloths! Not sure about your hairstyling tip though 😉

[jaqueitch]

I add side hustles to offset any new spending I plan. I can do consulting work for upwards of $500/hr. So, I just work a few hours to pay for a new purchase.

I also have a garden … tell your brother to grow moringa … it’s a superfood .. grows super fast .. those leaves can be used like spinach

[soulrazy]

Great vid Nate! Always watch you. Make a live stream someday!

Heard this from money guy show. The powder laundry makes the colors from clothes come off faster. So liquid laundry detergent might be better. Just use less don’t use so much to save money/ color on your clothes

[Squintillions]

Thrift stores can also be a good place to look for certain furniture items like small tables, nightstands, bookcases, etc.

Great tips! Very useful for my own financial struggles
