Which section in this conversation resonated with you the most?

[densitydad]

Ron, you are one of the best orators I’ve ever come across. The articulation and clarity, the pace. Your poetry has certainly helped I’m sure. Has made any topic more digestible to consume. Keep it up!

[hitgamer]

Someone mentioned before. But your orating skills and tempo, word choice and tonality is absolutely great

[DemetriPanici]

*A life goal of mine is to house hack and be a first-time home buyer with a duplex to live mortgage-free!*

[sandipeterson]

I built a $1, 000 emergency fund in 3 months. I have an online money market account which I can access within 1-2 days for cash if needed. The feeling of having this account is priceless!! Thanks for the great video Ronald!

Does anyone go through spending cycles like me? I'll go months without buying anything besides needs but then BAM I'll spend 2k in 47 minutes.

[nancyparker]

I find that when I use cash that I always spend less than when I use a credit card. That credit card can put you in a world of trouble for years if you're not mindful on what you spend. All your videos are so helpful. Thanks, you're awesome

[redheadedgypsy]

Thanks again Ron, one of your previous videos mentioned cutting subscriptions, went through my monthly credit cards - WOW. I stopped several subscriptions not needed - I now have an EXTRA $200 for my savings - great tip!!! Thank you!!

[paulinehillson]

In the past year I have paid off 4 credit cards. I have two left. I get more joy, satisfaction and fulfillment when I pay off a card than I ever did making a purchase. Unfortunately it’s taken me until I’m 60 to realize this. But never too old to learn. When I retired this new financial debt free freedom will make my life so much better. Great video Ronald 🧡

Keep learning. Keep growing..
Controling my spending habits to create meaningful life.

[miminie]

As soon as i heard you speak, i subscribe! You have a poetic voice & bonus a minimalist!! God bless!!!

[corinna_maybe]

Love your videos, you have such a calming presence and for someone like me who struggles with stress and anxiety on top of overwhelm, this is perfect. Thank you for your helpful and inspiring content ☺️

[kathydesroches]

Would love to hear more about food prep for the week. I can get into a rut, there are two of us in our household and both vegan.

[tanguerafeliz]

Oh thanks for the reminder. I've been needing to refresh this non-existent "budget" file for awhile and keep putting it off but you keep me inspired! This needs to be talked about more. We need to make money management as cool a trend as minimalism.

[lorettashum]

Wether it is personal or governmental, financial responsible is important. Too often, Americans settle for instant gratification and pay dearly for it.

[lindalong]

Realizing 1, 2-5, and thereafter are all goals.

[rojanjunior]

Is it just me or the quality of the video has so much improved? Fantastic video Ron, thank you

[beverlys.peacockmccranie]

I really like you young Such great advice!!!!

[MaryamAli-vdxv]
