Topic ReplyOne thing that recently helped me start saving more money for my savings and investing funds is by setting up direct deposit of my paycheck to my various bank accounts and then only including the money meant for spending in my budget. So following the 50/30/20 plan that Jaspreet has recommended in some of his videos; I was able to designate 50% of my paycheck to my checking account, 30% to my investment account, and 20% to my savings. Then I build my budget off of the 50% in my checking...

Topic Reply👍One Up On Wall Street by Peter Lynch An easy read that provides the basics of investing. Can you get the same info on a 15 minute You Tube video ? Yes, but Lynch explains it in such a way that you understand and retain what he is trying to tell you.

Topic ReplyIt was very easy to stick to the budget while everything was shutdown since there was nothing to spend money on but ever since things have started opening back up it has personally never been more difficult to stick with it, at least as far as the budget for eating out goes! I have definitely exceeded the amount of money that I designated for eating out the past couple of months because besides going on multiple walks everyday, going to get food is the only time I get out of the house.

Topic Reply@Landon Martin I love the auto deposit idea! One of the best ways to go about your saving/budgeting is staying organized and using certain plans and aspects to your advantage. Has the pandemic affected your budgeting at all? (Has it made it easier, better, or harder to stick to?)
-
Topic Reply👍@Landon Martin It's definitely been tougher due to the rising prices at the grocery store. As to how to return back to normal: We'll have to wait and see what things look like when they actually do return back to normal, but we actually recently published an article on things you can do to pass the time during this pandemic not too long ago (don't worry, there's some options for going out of the house on this list, too). Hope this helps! https://theminoritymindset.com...ys-to-pass-the-time/

Topic ReplyThe question that I would most like to ask is just "What is one piece of information that you wish you could add to or remove from the book?". I know a lot of authors will often release new editions of their books to update the information to fit their current ideas, but it would be interesting to me to see how their ideas have changed over time.

#SpendingDetox❤️Spending during the holidays: Year after year, the holidays slowly shift from joyful winter glee, to a race to see who can spend the most money.

Topic ReplyYou can get your taxes done for FREE instead of paying a firm if you are a qualified taxpayer. In Canada, there is the Community Volunteer Income Tax Program (CVITP).
