The savings thing is big. We had savings through the COVID shutdown, plus stimulus check. We've been blessed/fortunate enough to come out of this in a better position than when we went into it.

Many people in financial hardship think that money is just a stressful thing. It is for them, it is for their peers. So that’s their reality.

Love it – there's a lot of good info in #2 and #3 but the most important bit is to rinse and repeat the process week in, week out and month to month!

The first step is being AWARE of your money situation. 👀🤯
Create a budget and have discipline to stick with it. ✅
Save 20% of your income for saving and paying off debt.
Build emergency fund. 💰
Once your debt free and have 3-6 emergency fund.
Use the same 20% of your income to INVEST! 🤙🏽💯🔥

Hi! Can someone pls tell me why my FICO score is way higher then my credit karma score??? It’s like a 50 point difference. Which is more important?

Maybe splitting costs. Let’s say have a roommate or split groceries with you significant other and obviously this would be effective for younger people. Live below your means is huge. I actually just paid of credit card debt and now rebuilding. I’m saving about 50% of my income. Always, awesome and educational video! Stuff they don’t teach in school

Oh wise Shifu,
Video request.

Compare all no annual fee cards with a sign up bonus, capped at $1000 spend.

Yes, no, maybe later?

Also.

Is utilisation on each card or total utilisation against total credit available?

Ie. $100,000 available credit card credit. A balance of $21,000. Is the effect on credit score the same if it is spread among many cards so none are high utilisation vs $21,000 on a balance transfer card with a $23k limit?

Mint has been crucial and continues to be, in my financial foundation. I also spend a good deal of time at the bookstore reading about healthy habits in relation to money.

Man you are the best. Last year at 18 I started watching your videos and applied for my first credit card. 3 credit cards later, I am now 19 and was recently approved for an auto loan by myself, without the need for someone to co-sign. Thanks dude I really couldn’t have done it without your help.

Talking about the pandemic in the past tense is just incorrect. Regardless of what is opened back up, there is no vaccine. The 7-day moving average for daily deaths is 803 deaths per day.

People who have excellent credit, savings and zero debt: Watching this video.
People who are drowning in CC debt, with no savings: Watching stupid cat videos and scrolling through facebook.

my credit score tanked below 500 during this time. I finally got it under control and got all my accounts current. Now to pay off all my cards off. Its going to be a long road but at least I'm not stressing anymore and have an actual plan

My only problem is that he seems to encourage prioritising the credit score when chances are they might not be the best person to be handling credit and he should at least mention the snowball method as that works best for the less disciplined members of society but in financial hardship the priority is getting out of debt as quickly as possible, the credit score will increase naturally as debt is paid off and shouldn’t be considered as its best not to be getting many credit cards if you’re struggling with money, I understand that it’s a great plan for some but there are things that I think should have been mentioned
