Everything I have I own out-right

>Everything I have I own out-right.
>Everything I buy, I buy in cash.
>I have no debt or money owing.
>I never buy anything I cannot afford.
>I always keep 1 year worth of living expenses in savings.

That said, why am I constantly shamed and made fun of by everyone for doing this?

My parents started using credit cards in the 1990s, now they have $200,000+ credit card debt, and pay something like $4000 per month in minimum repayments. Their situation basically made me scared shitless of ever taking on any kind of debt.

Your money is debt, retard

Yeah interest is no fucking joke.
That said, you have to understand that debt doesn't always mean bad news. Having one year savings for personal expenses is good, but sometimes you need a push in business related subjects and taking some debt is a necessity.
Again, what you need to take care of is not debt itself but how much interest it generates.

This is dumb fuck logic. A business loan can be ok but usually isn't.

You're not shamed and made fun of for doing that You're lying. They probably make fun of you because you don't have a card. If you are so frugal as you claim and do not buy anything you can't afford on hand, yet don't use a card, like me, then you are just plain weird.

If you can't handle the responsibility of a credit card, like your parents, then I suggest a debit card.

This is what I want for my life but I fucked it up with to much debt early in life. I'm about 5 years away from this.

Boomer do not understand debt at all and think credit is free money, never ever listen to them about money.

Lmao, I guess all the small and medium enterprises are dumb fucks then.
INTEREST fucker, that's what really matters when you're considering a loan.

>Everything I have...

What do you have? Do you own your home?

And don't lie, we see your flag.

I accept the fact I am never going to "make it big" financially like all of you will with all your business adventures which you're taking on debt for, but hey, I watched my parents do all that shit to try make it big, and they failed every-time.

I would rather live frugally than ever risk putting myself in my parents position, even if that means I miss out on all kinds of lucrative business opportunities.

I really value peace of mind and being free from financial burden and stress, even at the cost of never giving "it a go" to "strike it big".

I was looking at Bitcoin back when it was $150 a pop, and I could of bought a lot, seeing that go upto $20,000/pop does hurt a little bit, but at the end of the day I am still very comfortable anyway.

give yourself a pay raise by making your home more efficient.

boomer here.. we did use a lot of credit, but it worked out in the end. But if rates stay low, borrow all you can and and worry about paying it later.

I've got no debt and I save for everything I want to buy too. My savings are about two years wages.
Could save more but I fucking hate banks.
How do I get out of the banking system?

People will shame you for literally anything if it doesn't conform to "what they would do if they were you".

you're living my dream, congratulations user, please be happy for me

We have been conditioned to waste

I rent, property prices only started softening this year in Melbourne, they're down about 5.5% from this time last year.

Everything I own, every holiday Ive been on, it's all been paid in cash. I have a pretty nice home-gym setup worth about $8k, a bleeding edge gay-ming PC, and miscellaneous household shit all that I bought in cash.

I am currently just hording money to buy a house, as that's the next thing I am interested in purchasing, prices going down is a good thing. I am thinking long-term though, I want a house, not an apartment, apartments are more expensive in the long-run with all the bullshit you have to pay for the "benefits" of living in a new high rise with a bunch of yuppy cunts.

It is a known fact that irresponsible people instinctively shame responsible people because it exposes their own irresponsibility.

>sober people are shamed into drinking
>healthy people are shamed into binging/eating shit
>financially responsible people are shamed/pressured into taking on excessive debt with no backup plan, almost as a right of passage.

I'm here to tell you kid: you're on the right path. You will encounter stupid, short-sighted, irresponsible people your entire life. Make peace with that and keep building your wealth.

And don't forget to enjoy your wealth once in a while too.

Most people suck with money. Crabs in a bucket.

Except for paying rent.

That's as goy as you can get. At least with a mortgage, you can write your interest off your income (in most states).

Paying rent is nigger as shit.

Stop paying rent as fast as you can.

This is America.

That's awesome that you have a long term goal, though. Keep chipping away, you got this.

>That said, why am I constantly shamed and made fun of by everyone for doing this?
Because Jews have propagandized everyone into thinking debt is okay. I'm a little less stringent than you, I do use a credit card (I never carry a month-to-month balance but I like the points and the ability to use in multiple countries) and I have about three months of living expenses in liquid savings.

I, too, am often mocked for being "cheap" because I live within my means and prepare for the possibility of an emergency. This is a symptom of a deeply sick culture.

>WHY ARE NORMIES SO OBSESSED WITH TRAVEL WHEN THEY HAVE EXCESS MONEY
Television. The funny thing is that normies don't even make the most of it when they do travel, often they'll go to a Caribbean country and see nothing of the country itself other than the drive from the airport to the resort.

>your parents are typical boomers
never spend more than what you earn. Ezpz

>My parents started using credit cards in the 1990s, now they have $200,000+ credit card debt
And when they pass away you'll inherit it :`

Did you miss the "fast as you can" part?

Put an extra $150, 200, 300 in that payment.

While you're the right - the ammortization table favors credit HEAVILY on the front end, it also hits the principal hard and fucks up that interest program. Do that for 5-6 years (no exceptions) and re-evaluation. You'll be shocked.

It IS possible to outjew the jew.

>That said, why am I constantly shamed and made fun of by everyone for doing this?
I am in the same boat, however my parents were never in debt. My father refused to use credit cards for anything. He raised me teaching me about economics being a game. Sure he had a credit card or 2, but he ONLY used them infrequently and paid them off on the next bill. Christmas purchases or gas on vacations are the only times I can remember him using them. One of his quotes that stuck with me:
>If you can't afford it you don't need it.
It is simple, but most people reeeee whenever I type it out. When you have a limited income as a majority of people do, you quickly realize what you want and what you need and how separated they are. I play the credit game a bit. I have 2 vehicle loans not totaling more than $4k right now. I use them instead of credit cards to keep rolling credit just in case. I own my house because I bought a fixer-upper in a rural area for next to nothing. Sure its not perfect, but it has 6 bedrooms. It needs work, but who gives a fuck because I own it. I don't give a fuck who judges me. I still have a CRT Console TV in my living room, and still play N64 on it with my kids.

>Your money is debt, retard
It is mine with no strings attached. It represents my labor in exchange for goods and services. My debt is the $4k I owe on credit cards, which my bank gladly allows me to repay on a monthly basis. I play the stock market a bit with a few retirement plans. I have a pension and annuity. I also buy silver and gold. They are not "get rich quick" schemes, but they are hard to track for tax purposes, and easy to liquidate. They will always have value.

then they will come back and talk about how amazing the people were and why we need to let them in. not realizing that resorts are carefully managed green zones which have been carved out of literal hell itself

Don't tell me people still watch television in the current year? Fuck

Preserve your earnings. Invest in metal. It's very easy to do here and you're an absolute fool if you don't, especially if you sit on (i.e. 'save') cash. This is the only sure fire means to preserve your earnings and not have it erode by way of inflation and an ever weakening dollar.

>My debt is the $4k I owe on credit cards
Car loans. Not credit cards. I was fixated on the OP's conversation about his parents credit cards.

Normies do, fuck if I know why. Everytime I have the misfortune of being near a television it's either home improvement shows, sports, or travel shit.

I suppose the argument is you don't have to pay debt if you die??

Stop LARPing and set up automatic payments on a credit card when you have big purchases like a normal fucking person.

>especially if you sit on (i.e. 'save') cash.
This is actually true. As much as I respect OP for his frugality, having more than a couple months of liquid cash sitting around is just asking for it to be stolen by jewish inflation and money supply manipulation.

>scared shitless of ever taking on any kind of debt

not paying interest is how we defeat the Jew.

>constantly shamed
lol bullshit, you dont have friends and you dont go outside

Not exactly, the debt will be paid from out of their estate. However if debt > assets then you won't actually inherit the debt. Still leaves boomers being retarded and not giving their family a boost after they die, but you can't be made to be worse off.

K, then give me all your money.

yeah you're right, but you know what he fucking meant too retard.

ok - you can put that DIRECTLY into principal sum remaining?

how does writing off interest work...thats a LOT per year, so does that mean you get that money back via taxes? or will basically pay no taxes?

thanks for the helpful posts brother

you don't know what your flag means do you.

side note here too, it's only a fraudulent sale if you plan on defrauding creditors within two years of your sale. for instance, start taking valuable items from your folks when you think theyre gonna die soon. namely, stuff that has a paper trail.

No, boomers were raised in an time when nothing ever went wrong economically. My mom bought a townhouse with help from my grandfather and then charged rent to 4 of her friends and that covered her mortgage payment and paid for her tuition.

You’re on a list somewhere. Same.

friendly reminder that when you pay off a home the insurance policy is automatically cancelled without you knowing.

>money
>representing anything
And there's your problem. If there's a paradigm shift, your money is useless to you. On the other hand, that same type of paradigm shift would make your debt useless to your debtors. Thus, by having debt, you have the upper hand over your debtors. "Interest" is simply a service charge for the luxury of having the upper hand.

Obviously, having too much interest isn't gonna bode well for your finances long term, but sometimes opportunities to invest liquid wealth arise—and these opportunities occur more often than you think.

tldr; it's not just how much wealth you have, it's also about when you have it, and sooner is sometimes better than later.

so this begs the question: how long into my mortgage/insurance policy do i wait until i burn the motherfucker to the ground to maximize insurance profit? like, wait at least a week or longer?

You can save money by using credit cards if you trust yourself to pay them off

Cards will typically offer cash back cards at 1-5% (depending on whatever deal they have) and these cards will also be low fee or $0

If you use them and pay off the cards immediately you pay no interest and at the end of the year you get some money

This. Frequently taking on or keeping debt is actually superior to having no debt, for example, taking a mortgage instead of paying cash for a house because you want to invest that cash in something (basically any investment including a bank account, usually) with a higher yield than the interest on the mortgage. In other words the game isn't being debt free, but having assets greater than liabilities.

it's true, people see their bills go down after payment and don't notice that insurance is no longer taking a cut. A family of mine had this happen and was without insurance for over a year. And there is also this bullshit policy they have that if your home is uninsured for longer than 30 days then they will treat you like the plague and not cover your home/ and or drop coverage after realizing.

the fact that nothing in this post is factually incorrect means our entire society deserves bullets and fire.

My parents were cool in that they fell for the credit card meme when they were younger but around 2000 when they realized "holy shit we exist in a perpetual state of owing about 25k" they started working to get rid of the cards for good. Few years later and they were completely free of them.

Debit cards are the true redpill, never spend money you don't actually have.

i don't do insurance fraud

Good on you, OP.

That being said, I have no debt and still have a credit score of 740.

So i’m Jewing while anti-jewing the Jew just because the Jew jewed me for a little bit.

Still have property taxes but there’s Ag exemptions for that.

Me 2 OP.

I have a 40,000$ HSV sitting in the garage that i payed cash for.
Iv never had a credit card
I got into shit loads of debt at 18, it ruined my life and made me depressed. Once i payed it off i never got a single thing on debt again. Not a loan a high purchase or even a lay buy. If i want something i save until i have enough to buy it.

I dont waste my money on travel or partying anymore and i like to have savings in the bank for a rainy day.

Doing everything above has meant i dont have to work full time. Hell i could NEET life for years and not have to worry about a thing. Meanwhile everyone around me is in so much debt, they live pay check to pay check.

Money is debt owed to YOU, you dumbass commie. That is clearly not what OP is talking about.

Well the terminology is incorrect for starts

Creditors own debt
Debtors owe debt

This is what they don't want people to realise. Once you are debt free, and very comfortable, your mind is at ease and nobody owns you anymore.
Rich people are not usually very happy. They will try to tell you they are, but if you get close and see inside their life it's neurotic turmoil.

Hey, fuck them. I'm debt-free and on my way to saving for a down payment on a house. 20% on a house and $400.00 monthly payments is a breeze. I own a small arsenal, a library, and I have a decent vidya rig.

Lord willing, I can get my own house by the time I'm 30.

You fucked everything up by living on credit. Fuck credit and fuck debt.

Yep, not all debt is bad debt.

Debt is good when you can get loans for something that brings you more money than the interest on the loan costs.

But obviously car loans and credit card debt is just pissing money away for nothing.

Currently thinking about slowly buying property in the countryside in my homeland to set up a "private nature reserve" so I can go in a woods and say screw you to taxes.

No more than what your flag means in this day and age. The U.S flag used to mean, freedom, democracy and independence. Now it means a cash grab by migrants. A feminist techno-state and a Zionist militant nation.

Misery loves company. People are upset they did not make smart decisions like you, so they simply put you down to make themselves feel better.
Just so you know, these people who put you down actually envy you

I purchased my own insurance the entire time I had a mortgage it's only 31.84 a month currently. if the mortgage co is providing it for you that is a red flag that they are worried they will get screwed if the place burns down and it is likely overpriced and you are also likely paying more for the house that it is worth. a lot of real estate is a huge scam.

Not necessarily. You might not be directly having those purchases pay for the debt, but that money still might be more productive for you somewhere else.

You should still keep credit cards and just pay them off in full before any interest ever accrues.
This way you don't get into debt but you still have access to the credit line if an emergency comes up and your (((credit score))) goes up so you can get better loans in case you ever choose to start a business or buy real estate.
Also cash back is literally free money and credit cards come with other perks like no fraud liability and easy chargebacks.

Dave Ramsey plan, desu

just walk up to the insurance company and yell FUCK YOU PAY ME

the homes were pre collapse relics. so what you say makes sense

Having just a couple months of cash is asking to get buttfucked.
Losing a little bit of money to inflation is the price you pay for not having your gold or cash stolen, your debt based business failing, or other possibilities.
If you can get a high interest savings account or term deposit that matches inflation rate or close to it then you won't lose money.
You should also be working to increase your pool of funds, and the slight loss to inflation won't be too noticeable. I agree it is annoying though.
Also, I know a guy who has 200k of gold and silver stolen from his house so there's that. You can put it in the bank but then you pay for the storage of it too. Or keep it at home and you pay for the safe and it's still a risk.
Whatever you do, there are either losses, or gambles. That's life.
I was sitting on a nice chunk of cash and getting sick of it feeling like deteriorating so I bought a reliable low yield business just to hopefully stop bleeding. I don't want to be rich, I just want to own something other than cash which does feel like it is at the whim if inflation.
All this being said, I think cash will be king again in the next recession, so I've kept a reasonable amount of that too. And kept my job, because you would be silly to give up stable high paying work.

>I rent
this would be a reason to borrow money to put down on a house. you will end up having to pay interest on the mortgage, but it will be going toward something that you own rather than you pissing it away on rent.

you should also have a credit card and buy things on it, and repay it every month to build credit and credit card points. the reality is prices already reflect the finance fees charged by credit card companies so by not using credit cards and collecting points you are losing out - unless ofc you go to places that have cash discounts.
