Welcome to The No-Fuss Budget, our latest YouTube series centering on the realities of budgeting when you *don’t* make six figures or come from substantial generational wealth. In each episode, we’re focusing on some of the most common money issues we see among the TFD audience: emotional spending and overconsumption, living paycheck to paycheck, the debt payoff struggle, and much more!
In our final episode (at least for now!) Jackie shares how she budgets in the before and after her life: while she was aggressively paying off debt and working her way up the career ladder, vs. now that she has pivoted to a lower-paying non-profit role, but without any debt. She also shares how she quit her job to travel for a year! In addition to helpful insights into how she paid off her debt, Jackie also shares her transparent thoughts on access, privilege, and the reasons behind her debt payoff journey and ability to pivot.
