However, giant asterisk. 54 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 4: You don't love year's resolutions, do you? No? 55 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 3: I don't. I just don't think anyone on that She's 56 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 3: on the Money team does either, because usually we stick 57 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 3: to them for like a week and then we lapse 58 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,640 Speaker 3: into old habits, which is totally deplating. And what She's 59 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:37,920 Speaker 3: On the Money is about is celebrating the new year 60 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,360 Speaker 3: and establishing some goals for the year ahead. And to 61 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 3: be honest, all of these tips should be super relevant 62 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 3: anytime of the year when you're ready to set a goal, 63 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 3: not just the start of January. So if you're listening 64 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 3: to this and it's April, you can implement these anytime 65 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:52,639 Speaker 3: you want. It is not something do you have to 66 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 3: wait for a new year to start afresh. 67 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 4: I feel like it's a big excuse. In November, December, yeah, 68 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 4: next year, Like. 69 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:02,680 Speaker 3: No, if you want to change something about your life, 70 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 3: now is the best time. And I think that you know, 71 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:08,359 Speaker 3: it's just coincidental that everyone wants to talk about it now. 72 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 3: And that's why we're doing it. But it's not necessarily 73 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 3: because we think that you have to set financial goals now, 74 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 3: like set the one. You're ready, my friends, all. 75 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,119 Speaker 4: Right, we're going to have five tips this episode. Number one, 76 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 4: take the time to sort out your budget and your 77 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 4: cash flow. 78 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 3: I feel like that was going to be an obvious 79 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 3: one from me, and obviously I wrote these five tips, 80 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 3: so I'm not going to be surprised by any of them. 81 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,359 Speaker 1: Right, I'm just reading a great idea, right. 82 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:33,680 Speaker 3: But I think it is one of those things that 83 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 3: people bury their heads in the sand about. We need 84 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 3: to be taking ownership of where we are and really 85 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 3: establish complete transparency over our finances, of where we're at 86 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 3: and where we're going and what we want to achieve, 87 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 3: because if we don't understand our budget and cash flow, like, 88 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 3: how do we create goals that are actually achievable? And 89 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 3: Ryan just we were all having this discussion earlier that 90 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 3: we see sometimes in our Facebook group people being like, oh, 91 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 3: I really want to save ten thousand dollars this year, 92 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 3: and you go, wow, that's such a great goal. How 93 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 3: are you going to do it? And they're like, well, 94 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 3: I'm saving three hundred dollars a month. You're like, okay, 95 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 3: but you're not going to that's not possible. Like if 96 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 3: you got more money that you're saving and they're like, 97 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 3: oh no, no, no, And then I just don't want 98 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 3: you to be upset at the end of the year 99 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 3: when you don't achieve that goal. So it's about understanding 100 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 3: your budget and your cash flow and what surple's income 101 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 3: you have, so we know what you are working with. 102 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 4: Do you think, if you like in that example, which 103 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 4: I think anyone who's in the Facebook group, there's been 104 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,599 Speaker 4: so many different versions of that, Oh that doesn't quite. 105 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:32,480 Speaker 3: Exactly, even money diaries from previous seasons, and like just 106 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 3: listening to people going, but that's not going to work out. 107 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:36,839 Speaker 3: You're going to be really upset. 108 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 4: Do you think when you set this high goal that 109 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 4: you know mathematically you're not going to achieve, that just 110 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 4: gives people they get halfway through the year they're nowhere 111 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,280 Speaker 4: near it, so they just smash their cash and blow 112 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 4: out and end up back at zero, where if they 113 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 4: hadn't had a smaller target they would actually do better off. 114 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 3: Yes, And if you'd had a smaller target that was 115 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:58,039 Speaker 3: broken down into even more small targets such as Christmas 116 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 3: presents or you know, in the Facebook this week, we 117 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 3: actually saw someone saying, you know, I blew so much 118 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 3: money on my hair at Christmas time. And it was like, well, 119 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 3: that's something that you shouldn't feel bad about if it won. 120 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 3: It was related to her mental health and you know, 121 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 3: Christmas being pretty traumatic for her and that helped her 122 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 3: get through. And I was just like, emergency funds are 123 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,599 Speaker 3: for that, for helping us get through, and your emergency 124 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 3: fund might be different to somebody else's emergency fund, like 125 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 3: she might have used it on her hair, and that 126 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:26,040 Speaker 3: genuinely was helping her mentally more than a three hundred 127 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:28,719 Speaker 3: dollars therapy session could have. And I think that you know, 128 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 3: sticking your own lane, picking your own journey, but also 129 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 3: let's try and foresee what those smaller things would be. 130 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 3: Because three hundred dollars at Christmas time, if you know 131 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 3: you want to do that, that's seven dollars a week. 132 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:45,119 Speaker 3: So start doing that absolutely all, right, Next point, next point, Jess, 133 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 3: what is it? 134 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 4: Yes? 135 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 2: Next up? We have reflect on twenty twenty to figure 136 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 2: out what you want moving forward. 137 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:52,720 Speaker 3: Okay, this one is a good one, and we spoke 138 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 3: about this last week on the pod. To be honest, 139 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 3: like twenty twenty bit of a garbage fire for a 140 00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,720 Speaker 3: lot of us, a bit of a ride off what 141 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,360 Speaker 3: do you reckon? But twenty twenty was also a chance 142 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 3: for a lot of us to reassess what we actually 143 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 3: want from our lives, what we liked and maybe what 144 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,719 Speaker 3: we didn't like, and gain a bit of ununderstanding of 145 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 3: what we actually want to do next year, and just 146 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 3: making sure that we are living our lives in line 147 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 3: with our values and the things that we are finding important. 148 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 3: Because I think as much as being in isolation has, 149 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,040 Speaker 3: you know, upset us, I think it's also given us 150 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 3: a little bit of reflection time to work out what's 151 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 3: really important. And I'm seeing some really beautiful stories coming 152 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 3: out of our community about how people saying, look, I'm 153 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:29,719 Speaker 3: really realizing, go, I want to spend more time with 154 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,279 Speaker 3: my kids or my family, or my partner, or I 155 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 3: want to spend more time walking outside or you know, 156 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 3: I've even had that point of realization where I love 157 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,280 Speaker 3: my morning walks with my partner and now it's a 158 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:43,159 Speaker 3: complete non negotiable for us to do that morning walk 159 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 3: before I even come to work, and I just think 160 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 3: it puts me in the right frame of mind. And 161 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 3: I think there are a lot of us who would 162 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 3: have found behaviors or implemented things that are really good 163 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 3: for their mental health but also their fitslicual health and 164 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,359 Speaker 3: hopefully their financial health that they can implement. So I 165 00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 3: think that reflecting on twenty twenty and what we actually 166 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 3: want to do moving forward is so so important And 167 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:05,240 Speaker 3: at the end of the day, this does play a 168 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,600 Speaker 3: part in how we spend our money and what our 169 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 3: goals are and what we want to strive towards. And 170 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 3: like having you think about what we actually want to 171 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 3: spend money on. Now, would you like to save Were 172 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 3: you actually in a position during COVID where you did 173 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,239 Speaker 3: save more? If so, how did that change your life? 174 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 3: Obviously from not being able to leave the house? How 175 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 3: did that change your life? And is that something you 176 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 3: want to continue and if it is, how can you 177 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 3: do that? But also were you a little bit too 178 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 3: hard on yourself during that period of time and how 179 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 3: can you be kind to yourself moving forward so that 180 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 3: twenty twenty one is a year where we achieve a 181 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 3: whole heap together. 182 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 4: Is there any go to questions you have v that 183 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 4: people can ask themselves in the process of trying to 184 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 4: figure out what their values actually are, because I know 185 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 4: we talk about values a lot, but how do we 186 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 4: actually ask ourselves what do I value? 187 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 3: I think it's I think it's a bit more innate 188 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 3: and it's a little bit more internal. It's not something 189 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 3: you can sit down and go sorry, I've decided my 190 00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 3: values are money and I yes, yeah. I think it's 191 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 3: about your feeling and being able to sit with that. 192 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 3: And something that I think is really important is being 193 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 3: able to sit with the decision. So it's thinking about 194 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 3: your life and where you want it to go and 195 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 3: maybe thinking ahead. And you know, it's the worst interview 196 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 3: question ever, like where do you see yourself in ten years? 197 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 1: Yes, in your job, in your job. 198 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 3: Like obviously like shakes on the money, but I think 199 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 3: it's well, where do you see yourself in ten years? 200 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 3: And really just sitting down and like I'm I'm kind 201 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 3: of a fluffy person, so like meditations and stuff are 202 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 3: very down my alley, but just sitting there and going 203 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,319 Speaker 3: all right, well what does that look like? And thinking 204 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 3: about your gut and how does that actually make you feel? 205 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 3: Like if I said, all right, well you'll have financial freedom, 206 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,680 Speaker 3: Does that you know, have a sense of relief associated 207 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 3: with it? Does that have you know, a sense of 208 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 3: you know, belonging associated with it? Does it stress you out? 209 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 2: Like? 210 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:50,719 Speaker 3: How are you feeling about those things? Because often if 211 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 3: I put you in a situation and I put a 212 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:55,200 Speaker 3: value on you that is not your value, doesn't feel 213 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,079 Speaker 3: like it sits right, It doesn't feel like it belongs, 214 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 3: and you really need to sit down and go, Okay, 215 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 3: will buying a house? It actually makes me feel really uncomfortable, 216 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 3: you know? Why does it make me feel really uncomfortable? 217 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:07,320 Speaker 3: And talking through those things? And I think that I 218 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:10,199 Speaker 3: know that's a really fluffy answer. Obviously, I'm gonna say, 219 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,199 Speaker 3: you know, go and write down your values and your 220 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 3: money story and understand that. But I've harped about all 221 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 3: of that stuff. I've harped on about all that stuff 222 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:20,199 Speaker 3: on historical podcasts. But I think this one is more 223 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 3: about just listening to your gut and what do you 224 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 3: feel and what enriches your life and what makes you 225 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 3: feel full, like what fills up your cup? 226 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 4: Do you think the reason people don't achieve some of 227 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,600 Speaker 4: their goals is because of what you're just saying. They 228 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 4: might not set the right goals that actually gets them 229 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:36,679 Speaker 4: really passionate. They're just setting goals that seems like, oh, 230 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 4: I feel like I'm supposed to kind of have a 231 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 4: goal like buying house, even though it terrifies me. Maybe 232 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:43,600 Speaker 4: if they had a goal that they really actually wanted, 233 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 4: they'd be more likely to get it. 234 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,560 Speaker 3: Absolutely, And I think that some people are really self 235 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 3: sabotaging when it comes to goals like that. And I 236 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 3: meet lots of people who do this, who say, oh, 237 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 3: I really want to buy a house, and I go, okay, cool, 238 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 3: So why are you spending fifteen hundred dollars to two 239 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 3: thousand dollars a month going out? And they're like, oh, 240 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,200 Speaker 3: like I'll get to saving for a house. And it's like, well, 241 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,320 Speaker 3: if you really wanted it, you wouldn't be throwing that 242 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:09,200 Speaker 3: money away. It's obviously not a goal that really inspires you. 243 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 3: What is a goal that really inspires you? Oh, I've 244 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 3: really wanted to work in London? Okay, now we're getting somewhere, 245 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 3: Like now we're talking like what would that mean to you? 246 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:17,079 Speaker 2: Oh? 247 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 3: It would be so cool? Okay, Well, why is buying 248 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 3: a house so important to you? 249 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 4: Oh? 250 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 3: My best friend did it or my dad keeps telling 251 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 3: me to do it. Okay, But if you want to 252 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 3: work in London and that's the thing that sparks joy 253 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 3: for you, like do more of that? 254 00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:33,439 Speaker 4: Yeah, well that actually ties in nicely to our next point. 255 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 4: The third point is quit the comparison. It's the thief 256 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 4: of joy. And is that similar to what you're just saying. 257 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 4: People are setting goals because oh, their friend had that 258 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 4: goal and it looked cool and everyone gave them a 259 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:43,840 Speaker 4: high five. 260 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 1: And I want that one hundred percent. 261 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:48,840 Speaker 3: And I feel like so many people compare their journeys 262 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 3: to that of other peoples, but you don't know what 263 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 3: part of the journey they're on. So if you're at 264 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 3: the start of your financial journey and you've only just 265 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 3: started listening to She's on the Money, the money diaries 266 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,199 Speaker 3: are going to feel really overwhelming because you're not used 267 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 3: to hearing them, and you're not used to being surrounded 268 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:05,200 Speaker 3: by so many people who are like, all right, well, 269 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 3: this is my budget and these are the steps I've 270 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 3: taken on my journey, and you just feel so behind. 271 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 3: So stop comparing your beginning to somebody else's middle or 272 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 3: somebody else's you know. Two thirds in because they went 273 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 3: through probably really similar struggles to you in the very beginning, 274 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 3: and even if they didn't, it's your journey, it's your 275 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 3: lanes today in it. 276 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 4: And can I just say this is a lot easier 277 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 4: than done because some of the money diaries that are 278 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 4: coming up are the one next week. Oh my gosh 279 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:32,720 Speaker 4: and I both read this email and almost started crying 280 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 4: because this twenty four year old saved so much money 281 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:38,200 Speaker 4: and what we do with our lives, and like. 282 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 3: I think that's really important as well, because that was 283 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 3: it that money diarist who said on the phone, she 284 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 3: was like, oh, yeah, I've just got to remind myself 285 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:48,559 Speaker 3: that you guys are people still, but yes, of course 286 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,560 Speaker 3: we are, Like we are so guilty of this. Like 287 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 3: Ryan and I were listening to that money Diarist comparing 288 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 3: ourselves and we actually had to do a bit of 289 00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 3: a check in to be like, what are we doing? Yeah, 290 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 3: get back in your own lege. 291 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 1: We're doing the thing we're telling now, I. 292 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 3: Do as we say, not as we do. Friends. 293 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 4: Are there any tips and tricks, whether it be journaling 294 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 4: or focusing and writing down your own goals to actually implement. 295 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:14,839 Speaker 3: To actually stay in your own leg? 296 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 1: Yeah? 297 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:19,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's literally about understanding you and your journey, 298 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 3: and the less clarity you have on the things that 299 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,440 Speaker 3: you love doing and the people that you love surrounding 300 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:26,680 Speaker 3: yourself with, and you know, the goals that you've got, 301 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 3: the less likely you are to not be able to 302 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 3: compare yourself. It's arguably a lot easier for you if 303 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 3: you're like, Okay, well, I see Jess. She's saving for 304 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:39,079 Speaker 3: her first home, and I'm, you know, saving for a 305 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 3: jet ski, and and I think that, you know, I've 306 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 3: got to recommember, well that my goal is not her goal, 307 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 3: and her goal is not my goal, and that's okay, 308 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:50,480 Speaker 3: and stop comparing mine because I've decided that's in line 309 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 3: with my values. And while I'm not going to be 310 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 3: buying a jet ski anytime soon, I think it's really 311 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 3: important to just say, like, everybody else's goals are different, 312 00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:00,960 Speaker 3: and if that is yours, fantastic. But I think it's 313 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 3: more about you are choosing that goal. You are choosing 314 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 3: to allocate your finite resources to that, and I think 315 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 3: if you're choosing to allocate your resources to that, it 316 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:11,319 Speaker 3: better be the right thing. 317 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:15,200 Speaker 4: Side note, the reason we're laughing at jet skis because 318 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:16,719 Speaker 4: someone wrote that in the group and we all read 319 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:17,160 Speaker 4: it were life. 320 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 3: Go for it mate, if that is your goal, by your. 321 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 1: Jet ski, we love it all right. The next tip, Jess, this. 322 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 2: Is when we talk about a lot in our Facebook group, 323 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 2: and that is getting on top of your emergency account. 324 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 3: Yes it is, and I like that just calls it 325 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 3: our Facebook account. Yeah, good for you. You're on the team. 326 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, I don't know if you guys have noticed, 327 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 3: but Jess might have recently been added as an admin 328 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:42,840 Speaker 3: because she's the newest she's on the Money Team member 329 00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 3: and we are very lucky to have her. But she 330 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 3: is right. Getting on top of your emergency account is 331 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 3: the number one thing I want you to do now. 332 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 3: I always say crushed it first. But if you don't 333 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 3: have an emergency account, you're at really large risk of 334 00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:00,320 Speaker 3: going back into debt if something bad happens. And so 335 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 3: for me, saving while you're in debt is a really 336 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:06,560 Speaker 3: bad idea. But to me, an emergency account isn't really saving. 337 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:10,080 Speaker 3: It's an emergency account. It is there for emergencies, so 338 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:12,560 Speaker 3: debt needs to be dealt with before we can start saving. 339 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 3: But an emergency account puts you in a situation when 340 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 3: the proverbial hits the fan. You can make sure that 341 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 3: you actually stay on track to getting rid of that 342 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 3: debt and you're not, you know, going into more debt 343 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 3: because you know, your car broke down, or your insurance 344 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 3: was up, or something happened to put you in a 345 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 3: situation where your only choice would be backwards. So I 346 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 3: think that we need to be really kind to ourselves. 347 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 3: In an emergency account is the way to do that. 348 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 3: So for me, you know, it puts you in a 349 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 3: position where you end up feeling super secure financially even 350 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 3: though you're in personal debt. 351 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 4: Do you have a recommendation or I know everyone's going 352 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 4: to be different again, but is an emergency account maybe 353 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,120 Speaker 4: a certain amount of months of your income or is 354 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 4: it your bills for the next six months, or is 355 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 4: it just a two thousand dollars flat feet what should people? 356 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:00,360 Speaker 3: It's different and I'm so sorry that I I can't 357 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 3: say it's perfect, But at the end of the day, 358 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 3: everybody is different. Some of the She's on the money 359 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 3: community have five hundred dollars in their emergency account and 360 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,760 Speaker 3: that is perfect for them. I've also got clients who 361 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 3: have more than one hundred thousand dollars in their emergency 362 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 3: accounts because that makes them feel financially secure. And I'm 363 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 3: not here saying you need this or that, but I 364 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:22,120 Speaker 3: think a really good way to think about it is, 365 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 3: if an accident happened, or if something happened to me, 366 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 3: what is the biggest bill I would get at this point? 367 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 3: And you know, if you've only got third party insurance 368 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 3: on your car insurance, maybe that's a lot bigger than 369 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 3: someone who has comprehensive insurance. So I think it's really 370 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 3: important to just understand what your situation is. But I 371 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 3: do think a really safe place to play. And I'm 372 00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 3: not saying that this is achievable for everybody, but if 373 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 3: you are in your mid twenties, I'd be trying to 374 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 3: have at least two thousand dollars in that because you know, 375 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 3: if your rego comes up, or your insurance comes up, 376 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 3: or you've forgotten about these things, or you know, you 377 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 3: get a really big speeding fine, at least you've still 378 00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 3: got at least one thousand dollars in that emergency account. 379 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 3: Because sometimes the proverbial hits the fan more than once 380 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 3: in a month, and that just feels like a kick 381 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 3: in the guts and that emergency fund is there for 382 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 3: those things. 383 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 4: I'm really annoyed because you just reminded me my redgo 384 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 4: is due. I'm sorry, that's so annoying. 385 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:14,880 Speaker 3: Mine is true, don't worry. 386 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:15,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, let's get. 387 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 4: To number five, which is identifying your goals in twenty 388 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 4: twenty one. So obviously everything we've talked about kind of 389 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:24,680 Speaker 4: leads to this crescendo. If you will random question though, 390 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 4: does it make a difference if we actually write it 391 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 4: down or is there a process rather just thinking, oh yeah, 392 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 4: I'll probably get about one hundred percent. 393 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 3: Science tells us you are sixty percent more likely to 394 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 3: achieve a goal that you've written down, and I think 395 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 3: that that is epic. So get out your napkins, gat 396 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 3: out your iPhones, write that stuff down. It puts you 397 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 3: in a position where you are more likely to stick 398 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 3: to that because you've kind of visualized it. And I 399 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:49,240 Speaker 3: know this sounds really lame, but if you've got like 400 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 3: a vision board or you know, have different places that 401 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:55,080 Speaker 3: you can put this goal, the more likely you are 402 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:58,640 Speaker 3: to achieve it. Breaking it down even further than that 403 00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:01,680 Speaker 3: is obviously going to help as well. So writing down 404 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 3: I would like to buy a house is to me 405 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:05,920 Speaker 3: not good enough. I would like to buy a house 406 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,119 Speaker 3: in five years, and I would like to have one 407 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 3: hundred thousand dollars saved as a deposit is a far 408 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:13,720 Speaker 3: better goal than I would like to buy a house. 409 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,399 Speaker 3: We don't want animosity when it comes to goal setting. 410 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:19,239 Speaker 3: We want clarity, and we want so much clarity that 411 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:21,680 Speaker 3: if I gave my goal to somebody else, they could 412 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:23,880 Speaker 3: essentially use it. Not that they should because they should 413 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 3: be in their own lane. 414 00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, how much do we need to sort of break 415 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 4: it down? So for instance, my wife, now wife. 416 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 2: You. 417 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:34,160 Speaker 3: Guys are playing along at home, Ryan, when'd you get 418 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:35,680 Speaker 3: married last week? 419 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:39,720 Speaker 4: Yeay, just snuck it in before our for the new year, 420 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 4: and before our photographer is heavily pregnant. So she just said, 421 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 4: if you guys want to use me, you have to 422 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:45,160 Speaker 4: do it by the end of the year. 423 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,719 Speaker 3: That you loved your photographer so much that you literally 424 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 3: planned your wedding dated. 425 00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:50,920 Speaker 1: All for her. Georgia Verels was their name. 426 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,439 Speaker 4: But anyway, we want to save up for our you know, 427 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 4: in inverted commas sort of forever home kind of thing. 428 00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 4: Do we break it down per year? Are do we 429 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 4: say per month? We need to save this much per week? 430 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:04,359 Speaker 4: How much like when you say break it down, how 431 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:05,840 Speaker 4: much do we really need to break it down? 432 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 3: It depends on your level of motivation, and I think 433 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 3: that in this position, the more broken down a goal is, 434 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:15,160 Speaker 3: the easier to digest it is. And you know, I 435 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,440 Speaker 3: like to break goals down to a monthly basis. I've 436 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:19,480 Speaker 3: got friends and family who break it down to a 437 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 3: weekly basis. And I've got some people in the Shees 438 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 3: on the money community who break it down too daily 439 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 3: in our face. Yeah, I love it, but they do. 440 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,200 Speaker 3: And it's literally the best. If you save twenty seven 441 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 3: dollars fifty a day every day for this year, you'll 442 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:36,920 Speaker 3: have ten thousand dollars saved by the end of this year, 443 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 3: my friends, And. 444 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:39,879 Speaker 1: That actually sounds easy. 445 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:42,239 Speaker 2: Twenty seven dollars on dumplings like we did. 446 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:52,719 Speaker 3: Excuse me, just to remember she's just like under the bus. Yes, absolutely, 447 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:54,879 Speaker 3: it is Uber Eats dumplings, which by the way, was 448 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:58,639 Speaker 3: for the entire team. You benefit it, Yeah, you've benefited 449 00:18:58,680 --> 00:18:59,120 Speaker 3: from that. 450 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 1: So I think that's more you break it down, the. 451 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 3: More palatable it is going to be, the easier it 452 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 3: is to achieve. But also breaking down goals means you 453 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 3: can track your goal better because if you didn't save 454 00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:14,359 Speaker 3: that twenty seven dollars fifty yesterday, you know you're not 455 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 3: going to achieve that goal at the end of the year, 456 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:18,880 Speaker 3: and that's just going to build up. I also think 457 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 3: it helps you understand whether that goal is achievable as well, 458 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 3: because if you say, look, Rian, I really want to 459 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:26,960 Speaker 3: save ten thousand dollars this year, and I go, well, 460 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:28,720 Speaker 3: do you have twenty seven dollars fifty a day to 461 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:33,359 Speaker 3: put aside? And you go no, If you can't afford that, 462 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:35,480 Speaker 3: you're not actually going to be able to save ten 463 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 3: thousand dollars. And it's not saying that that's a bad thing. 464 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,400 Speaker 3: Not everyone needs to do that, but if that's your goal, 465 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:42,439 Speaker 3: you're going to be really upset at the end of 466 00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:44,679 Speaker 3: this year when you don't achieve that goal. So how 467 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,399 Speaker 3: about reset that goal. If you can afford four hundred dollars, 468 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 3: maybe we could go half. 469 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:51,399 Speaker 4: So there's a post in the Facebook group at the 470 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:55,400 Speaker 4: moment saying what is your goal for twenty twenty one, 471 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:57,159 Speaker 4: And we're going to do an episode on Friday with 472 00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,000 Speaker 4: the three of us just go through the group and 473 00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,120 Speaker 4: talk about all our favorite goals that you guys have had, 474 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 4: So go find that post leave your comment, but also 475 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 4: have a look at everyone else's in comment on their 476 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 4: because there are some really great ones. But V before 477 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:11,160 Speaker 4: we finish up, is there any final words of wisdom 478 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,640 Speaker 4: from our fearless financial leader Victoria Devine. 479 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 3: I thought Georgia was dramatic. It turns out it's you 480 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 3: two that is even more dramatic. And I now know 481 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:23,080 Speaker 3: that it runs in that She's on the Money family. No, 482 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,679 Speaker 3: I think it's just about being clear and honest with 483 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:28,400 Speaker 3: yourself this year. Last year, so many of us fell 484 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,600 Speaker 3: off track, and I think it's just about being really 485 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 3: honest and really kind with ourselves and taking the time 486 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 3: to sort through your budget and have a think about 487 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:37,679 Speaker 3: what twenty twenty meant to you and the things that 488 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:40,920 Speaker 3: you've valued, making sure you're not comparing yourself to the 489 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:44,119 Speaker 3: journey of other people's, making sure you have that emergency account, 490 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:46,800 Speaker 3: and I think you'll be in a financially stable position 491 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,639 Speaker 3: where you can start gaining the confidence that you deserve. 492 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:52,560 Speaker 4: I know I mentioned the Facebook group before, also check 493 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:55,200 Speaker 4: out our Instagram as well.
