    hospital debt can be paid down in very small increments. There is no reason to get rid of your emergency fund to pay it off all at once. Debt shaming is a silly statement, and if you want to call that fine. You should give people you love crap about spending their money incorrectly and trying to get them in line with biblical principles like Dave teaches. If somebody says something you don’t like you can’t let bother you hopefully because you’re an adult. Nothing anybody says to me can hurt my feelings unless I let it. I get it not everybody has the same advantages or makes great decisions all the time. It is possible to become debt-free and it is possible to move out of a position that you’re not happy with by making better choices. And those choices aren’t easy and people don’t always want to face them but that’s the only way you’re gonna change your financial future. If you want something you've never had You must be willing to do something you've never done. Thomas Jefferson

    Gen Z here. We were told to get an education be it blue collar or college, and work hard and keep your nose to the grindstone. In reality we’re barely able to make ends meet and with all the once in a lifetime events (covid, 9/11, 2008 crash, etc.) we’ve lived through we only expect things to get worse. This is all to say retirement is a joke to us. We expect to see the death of the planet before the opportunity to retire. 🌎🔥 ☠️🎉

    Correct me if I'm wrong. I am to the undetstanding that it's illegal for businesses and banks to charge intrest on unpaid intrest and fees. On supposition that is true, shouldn't everyone benefit from accurate accounting practices? Or how about requiring 50% of all loan payments be applied to principal with intrest being recalculated after each payment.

    That our family of 5 would already own a home if we just stopped “wasting money and going out”, we only went on a date a year to celebrate our anniversary ( we’re talking Denny’s level date) then my husband had lost his job and I had become a SAH mom to care for our special needs kids YEARS prior…. Being told that “ you can find a great house for under $60,000” hurt so bad my parents finally came house hunting with me and realized that was no longer true…. But other members still try to BS us.

    More context is definitely needed. She may not need to cut it out but if bills are tight I would say she could certainly cut out just coffee shops and the work cafeteria and that would provide quite a bit of relief and still allow for fun with friends. Obviously there is more to be cut but I’m not against having some fun built in to a budget although me personally would maybe choose between drinks with friends or brunch which could potentially cut the fun spending in half :)

    Depends on the rest of the financial situation. If you're putting money into savings and increasing your buffer in checking, then no. But if you're not making ground financially or, worse, falling behind or living paycheck-to-paycheck; then I'd start suggesting cutting out any eating out. An extra $50 in groceries could probably allow all the rest to be cut out. It's a matter of the whole pie, not just one piece

    Okay, but as someone who grew up with a realtor for a mother who convinced me to buy a house at 26 (start of covid) depending on where you live, it's still possible with your current finances. You can get your first house in the US with a 3% downpayment. For a $300,000 house that's $9K, you'll probably want closer to $12K for fees and such and to have your realtor negotiate for the seller to cover some of the closing costs. You wouldn't want to go above a $300K house if your rent is $1.7K, anyway. Since ideally your mortgage should stay close to what your rent is. Drop your subscriptions and shave off the $100 from your grocery bills that goes to eating out and you'll have $500/month in savings. That's $12K in two years. Now, granted, depending on where you live you may not be able to find a house for $300K. In that case then savings would never help and your only chance of ownership is moving, getting a higher paying job, or going in on it with someone else. A spouse, a family member, a friend interested in a buisness partnership, etc. That being said, there are a lot of places where you can get a small space for $300K it just might not be up to certain standards. If that's true then I'd talk to am experienced agent they can tell you if they think its worth the cost. After all, you gain nothing from paying rent, but you gain equity from paying a mortgage. Just find it interesting that you'd put away $400/month for retirement but not a house. 30 years from now having a paid off house would be a great boone as a retiree.
