Finances - Day 2
Baby Step 1: Part 2
Some folks just donβt want to understand it. π€£
You work the steps in order!! The first 4 are about intensity. The second 3 are about intentionality.
Baby steps 1, 2, 3, and 3b are done one at a time till completion, consecutively. Baby steps 4,5, and 6 can be done simultaneously but prioritized by order when considering dollar amounts.
1. Get a starter emergency fund of $1,000 saved
2. Pay off all debt except the mortgage using the debt snowball and budgeting with @everydollar
3. Save 3-6 months of expenses (your basic budget, not the bells and whistles)
3b. Save for a home down payment (shoot for 20%)
4. *For the first time* Invest 15% each month for retirement
5. Start saving for kids' college
6. Start paying off your mortgage
7. GIVE like no one else!!
This reel was just to poke fun. I am happy to teach this message until the cow comes home!! And they better come home as debt-free, Millionaires!!!!! ππ€ π°π€£
