- 1:51Speaker 1: I'm really well, I'm good. I'm excited to be here.
- 1:53Speaker 1: Thank you there. First of all, where are you based.
- 1:56Speaker 1: I'm based in New Jersey, New Jersey. I New York
- 1:59Speaker 1: is my favorite city. So I'm gonna be a lot.
- 2:01Speaker 1: So we have to do lunch. But when I come
- 2:04Speaker 1: up there, because I try to create relationships that are
- 2:07Speaker 1: real and honest. Because I bring individuals on this show
- 2:10Speaker 1: not only for information about for myself. This is a
- 2:14Speaker 1: real selfis show because everybody that interview improves my own
- 2:16Speaker 1: personal life or my knowledge. And so but in the turn,
- 2:20Speaker 1: I share what I learned with my listeners and my
- 2:23Speaker 1: viewers and my followers and you, my friend and an
- 2:27Speaker 1: amazing individual. And I want to talk about how did
- 2:30Speaker 1: it all start? How did this whole thing about budgeting,
- 2:34Speaker 1: know their awareness of financial literacy? How did this start
- 2:37Speaker 1: for you? Well, I was fortunate enough to be born
- 2:41Speaker 1: into it. My father was a CFO and an accountant
- 2:44Speaker 1: he's retired now. And my mom just really good at
- 2:49Speaker 1: managing our families um, day to day budget. I'm one
- 2:52Speaker 1: of five girls, so you know, you gotta learn how
- 2:54Speaker 1: to budget have kids, absolutely absolutely moving. And so I
- 3:01Speaker 1: just grew up. I mean, so both of my parents
- 3:03Speaker 1: were born and raised in Nigeria, and Nigeria tends to
- 3:06Speaker 1: be a very male dominated culture. But because I'm just
- 3:11Speaker 1: so glad I didn't have any brothers, because I suspect
- 3:14Speaker 1: if I would have had brothers, my dad would have
- 3:15Speaker 1: taught one of them and then expect that my brothers
- 3:19Speaker 1: to look after us, you know, But instead he had
- 3:22Speaker 1: a girl after girl after girl after girl. Um and
- 3:25Speaker 1: said well, I'm going to teach you how to look
- 3:27Speaker 1: at I'm gonna teach you how to look after yourself.
- 3:30Speaker 1: So he got have had a mob lawn, he's got
- 3:32Speaker 1: to change our oil. And he taught us about money
- 3:34Speaker 1: and we would have weekly money meetings and it became normal.
- 3:38Speaker 1: And so that's how it started for me. Well, you know,
- 3:40Speaker 1: I'm my degree is in mathematics, and so I you know,
- 3:44Speaker 1: I'm good and i'm finances. I can't do my taxes.
- 3:47Speaker 1: I refused to do my text. I was just I
- 3:49Speaker 1: have this mental block when it comes to my tax
- 3:51Speaker 1: I think it's called being audited, okay, and I don't
- 3:54Speaker 1: want to make sure that. I want to make sure
- 3:55Speaker 1: those numbers are right. So I paid somebody to do that. Now,
- 3:59Speaker 1: for your fall father to have these weekly meetings gave
- 4:02Speaker 1: you an enormous amount of confidence when it comes to
- 4:06Speaker 1: talking about financial literacy. Talk about that it did because
- 4:11Speaker 1: I think I don't think um people realize that there
- 4:14Speaker 1: is no such thing as normal, and that you can
- 4:17Speaker 1: set normal for your child. And so you know, since
- 4:20Speaker 1: I can't remember being like three or four, um and
- 4:24Speaker 1: y leaguely remember like I used to love to hear
- 4:26Speaker 1: water run before functually was the cool thing. I love
- 4:29Speaker 1: the water and I would turn on the faucets in
- 4:31Speaker 1: the house and walk away because I just wanted to
- 4:32Speaker 1: hear the water. And so my dad, you know, it
- 4:35Speaker 1: was like, how do we get this girl to stop
- 4:36Speaker 1: wasting this water? And so what he told me. I
- 4:39Speaker 1: remember one time the icy man was coming to ice
- 4:41Speaker 1: cream truck right outside. Came back in to get my dollar.
- 4:45Speaker 1: Because one thing with five kids, everybody's not getting every
- 4:49Speaker 1: single day. So my day was Tuesday was a Tuesday.
- 4:52Speaker 1: Let me go get my dollar from that. But even
- 4:59Speaker 1: the lesson of like rotating days, that's the financial lessons,
- 5:01Speaker 1: and I want to get my my dollar. My dad
- 5:04Speaker 1: padded his POxy, said, uh, I forgot. I just gave
- 5:07Speaker 1: you a your dollar to the water man. And I'm like, well,
- 5:09Speaker 1: who's that. He was like, that's the man we had
- 5:11Speaker 1: to pay every time you run the water. So he
- 5:13Speaker 1: was teaching me about the bills. But what he did
- 5:16Speaker 1: wasn't he aligned it what what was important to me,
- 5:18Speaker 1: which was my ice cream. So I was devastated, like, wait,
- 5:21Speaker 1: so every time I runder water, that money goes somewhere. Well,
- 5:25Speaker 1: I'm not running that water anymore. And so you know,
- 5:28Speaker 1: he normalized that kind of conversation, but he made an
- 5:31Speaker 1: age appropriate and so as a result, you know, I
- 5:34Speaker 1: knew very early on I understood the way money worked.
- 5:38Speaker 1: I understood about living below your means did not mean
- 5:41Speaker 1: that you had less. I wasn't afraid to talk about money.
- 5:44Speaker 1: I mean to me, I'm not afraid, you know, of
- 5:46Speaker 1: money conversations because he normalized that. And I think that's
- 5:49Speaker 1: the advantage, the competitive edge I feel like I have.
- 5:53Speaker 1: Now that's that's amazing that you know you would like
- 5:55Speaker 1: to discuss our ways. Five ways to repair your finances
- 5:58Speaker 1: for the new year. Now that's important because here's the deal.
- 6:02Speaker 1: People always end the year, you know, without a plan,
- 6:05Speaker 1: and then they start the year without a plan. How
- 6:08Speaker 1: did you know when you're in January, you you know
- 6:12Speaker 1: everything's clean, quote unquote, you know, how do you what
- 6:16Speaker 1: are the five ways to repair your finances for the
- 6:19Speaker 1: new year. We have to start with the budget. I
- 6:22Speaker 1: know people don't like to hear the word budget, but
- 6:24Speaker 1: a budget is merely just a physical picture of what
- 6:27Speaker 1: your money is doing, so that way you can tell
- 6:31Speaker 1: it where you wanted to go. So it's just a
- 6:33Speaker 1: list of all your finances and what you're spending monthly
- 6:36Speaker 1: on on everything and subtracting it from what you take
- 6:40Speaker 1: home every month. You have to get that clear picture.
- 6:42Speaker 1: So that's number one, getting that budget in place. I've
- 6:45Speaker 1: done that. I've done that. Now I'm telling something. It's
- 6:47Speaker 1: harder now, but I was when my life card got
- 6:50Speaker 1: so many businesses. So I have somebody else do it.
- 6:52Speaker 1: But that was really important for me because of the
- 6:54Speaker 1: fact that no, I gotta pay rent, No I got
- 6:57Speaker 1: a light bill, No I got a cable bill, and
- 6:59Speaker 1: I got you know, water electrical all that those little
- 7:02Speaker 1: bit on this set aside some money for food that
- 7:05Speaker 1: I would eat in it, a certain amount of money
- 7:07Speaker 1: for entertainment. It has to be that granular when you
- 7:10Speaker 1: talk talking about that month correct correct, especially in the
- 7:13Speaker 1: beginning when you have when you when you have a
- 7:15Speaker 1: little bit more space, so maybe you're making a little
- 7:18Speaker 1: bit more you you you have some space to to
- 7:20Speaker 1: be a little bit more general. But when things are
- 7:22Speaker 1: really tight, that means your budget has to be super time.
- 7:25Speaker 1: You need to know where every all your money is going.
- 7:27Speaker 1: So that's first and foremost, and then number two, it's
- 7:31Speaker 1: a savings plan. Nobody loves the idea of savings. But
- 7:35Speaker 1: here's how you make it easy. You make your money inconvenient.
- 7:38Speaker 1: I believe in having at least one online only savings
- 7:42Speaker 1: account because one, you're going to get a higher interest
- 7:45Speaker 1: rate payout. So your normal brick and mortar bank is
- 7:48Speaker 1: paying right now, point zero zero one percent. I literally
- 7:51Speaker 1: just looked point zero zero one percent. Now, keep it
- 7:55Speaker 1: in your pocket, keep in your get knocked in the
- 7:58Speaker 1: piece of a penny you like. And so but if
- 8:02Speaker 1: you put your some of your savings in an online
- 8:04Speaker 1: only bank, um, there's one in particular right now that's
- 8:06Speaker 1: giving two percent interest. So that's not bad. That's two pennies.
- 8:10Speaker 1: But that's better than a piece of a penny. And
- 8:13Speaker 1: so saving your money an online only bank, one you're
- 8:16Speaker 1: gonna get a higher interest rate, and two you're gonna
- 8:18Speaker 1: make your money inconvenient because if you want to get
- 8:21Speaker 1: your money back. So I don't believe in having your
- 8:23Speaker 1: checking account at an online only bank, just your savings,
- 8:26Speaker 1: so that way you don't have access. The only way
- 8:28Speaker 1: you have access is to transfer back to your regular
- 8:32Speaker 1: bank account, your regular checking account at your at your
- 8:34Speaker 1: brick and mortar physical bank. That transfer takes about twenty
- 8:38Speaker 1: four um to forty eight hours, if not longer. And
- 8:41Speaker 1: so what that means is it's gonna be hard for
- 8:43Speaker 1: you to spend money that you have to wait on
- 8:46Speaker 1: for for at least one day. So creating like a
- 8:49Speaker 1: simple savings fund where you're putting your money aside and
- 8:52Speaker 1: making it inconvenient, inconvenient money, because it's five of I
- 8:57Speaker 1: want to about to go to a break. So the
- 8:59Speaker 1: first place the budget, and the second was the savings.
- 9:02Speaker 1: And I'm just everybody a little personal history about savings.
- 9:04Speaker 1: In my twenties, I met a very what I called
- 9:07Speaker 1: guy who was very very he was. It was a
- 9:09Speaker 1: guy who was influential and changing my thought process. And
- 9:13Speaker 1: he used to tell him by savings and saying I
- 9:14Speaker 1: didn't be I didn't I didn't buy into him. I
- 9:16Speaker 1: didn't believe him. I didn't understand the whole savings process.
- 9:19Speaker 1: And it's really important that you do start saving some form.
- 9:22Speaker 1: And just because it's you know, a hundred dollars a
- 9:25Speaker 1: year may not seem like much. That's a hundred dollars
- 9:28Speaker 1: that you didn't save the previous year, and so just
- 9:30Speaker 1: no saving. You have to start somewhere, and you have
- 9:33Speaker 1: to make a commitment to it and just saving. If
- 9:36Speaker 1: you go, if it's just fifty dollars a month, that's
- 9:38Speaker 1: a savings. If it's just ten dollars a month, that's
- 9:40Speaker 1: the savings. And it's really important. We'll be back more
- 9:42Speaker 1: with Tiffany. The budget, the stock stop, put the stop
- 9:48Speaker 1: money making conversations. She just look at money main conversation, budget,
- 9:51Speaker 1: the stuff. Hi this ra Sean McDonald. You know this voice,
- 9:55Speaker 1: ra Sean McDonald. This is money making conversations on the phone.
- 9:58Speaker 1: Gonna have a Tiffany the Buddonis STI uh. She's she's
- 10:03Speaker 1: running down her five ways to repair your finances for
- 10:06Speaker 1: the new year, and that's important. We always, you know,
- 10:09Speaker 1: we always make these New Year's resolutions about what we're
- 10:12Speaker 1: gonna do. Well, guess what, start now, get it right
- 10:15Speaker 1: now and you can live a better life. She talked
- 10:17Speaker 1: about the budget, you talked about the savings. What better
- 10:19Speaker 1: ways to start a budget and the savings in the
- 10:22Speaker 1: month of January so you can know how you're gonna
- 10:25Speaker 1: live your life for the next eleven months, which is
- 10:28Speaker 1: really important. Til depend on how early you want to
- 10:30Speaker 1: start your your savings and your budget in the month
- 10:33Speaker 1: of January. So what are the next three steps. Next
- 10:36Speaker 1: three are credits and debt, so we can combine those
- 10:39Speaker 1: suit again, that's three and four. So credit just the
- 10:43Speaker 1: best way to raise your credit score is to pay
- 10:46Speaker 1: down debt and to pay consistently. If you automate your bill,
- 10:50Speaker 1: that's going to help tremendously. That's thirty five of your
- 10:54Speaker 1: score paying bills on time. Now also too, you can
- 10:57Speaker 1: become an authorized user. Until your grandma has great at it.
- 11:00Speaker 1: She's got one card that she pays off and pull
- 11:02Speaker 1: every single months. Ask her she can add you as
- 11:04Speaker 1: an authorized users that you don't need a card, but
- 11:07Speaker 1: just that you want to inherit her good behavior. So
- 11:09Speaker 1: credit is critical, especially in the United States, and then dead.
- 11:14Speaker 1: I mean that it's such a downer. It is so
- 11:16Speaker 1: hard to get your check knowing that most of it
- 11:18Speaker 1: does not belong to you. So creating and automated plan
- 11:23Speaker 1: like like if you google Snowball plan for debt, it
- 11:27Speaker 1: will show you step by step. It's just a really
- 11:30Speaker 1: easy plan to paying off your debt in a strategic way.
- 11:34Speaker 1: And that's how I was able to get at a
- 11:35Speaker 1: thirty five thousand, I was worth a credit card. Debt
- 11:38Speaker 1: and then last, but not least, number five. It's just automation.
- 11:41Speaker 1: Automation is the news discipline. Automate your budget, automate your
- 11:46Speaker 1: savings plan, automate your credit by by paying off your
- 11:49Speaker 1: your debt, and full automate your your debt plan. Automation
- 11:53Speaker 1: is really going to help you to stay on track
- 11:55Speaker 1: because it will be on track even when you're not right.
- 11:58Speaker 1: And here's me in in that whole plan, and I
- 12:01Speaker 1: agree with everything you said. Okay, you know, I'm a
- 12:03Speaker 1: guy who's I like the little life of debt, being
- 12:06Speaker 1: debt free. I also like to pay my bills thirty
- 12:11Speaker 1: days cycles. You know that if I, oh, if I
- 12:12Speaker 1: don't like to let my credit card be a monthly
- 12:15Speaker 1: than if I owe it. And I also have a
- 12:17Speaker 1: mentality if only buy what I can pay off in
- 12:19Speaker 1: thirty days too. A lot of people don't do that, okay,
- 12:23Speaker 1: and so they if you, if you if you're gonna,
- 12:25Speaker 1: if you're gonna go shopping for groceries, then only buy
- 12:28Speaker 1: what you can so you can pay it off. Don't
- 12:30Speaker 1: be over there buying some extra stuff that's gonna run
- 12:32Speaker 1: you over to and then you got that interest rate,
- 12:34Speaker 1: so that tomatoes suddenly was maybe a dollar nizer dollar
- 12:37Speaker 1: fifty because it got interest rate attack attached onto it.
- 12:40Speaker 1: And a lot of people don't understand that by to
- 12:43Speaker 1: your financial level and you will actually gain. And that's
- 12:47Speaker 1: all you're just saying in this conversation about five ways
- 12:50Speaker 1: to repair your finances for the new year. Correct, correct
- 12:54Speaker 1: that living below your means um it will enable you
- 12:58Speaker 1: to live above whatever dreams that you have. I don't
- 13:01Speaker 1: think people get that that, you know, like, for example,
- 13:03Speaker 1: this year, my husband and I bought two homes in cash,
- 13:06Speaker 1: in cash. I used to be a preschool teacher. He
- 13:08Speaker 1: used to be a maintenance man. So we're not like
- 13:12Speaker 1: you know, folks who had like all of this money.
- 13:16Speaker 1: But we learned to live below our means. You know,
- 13:18Speaker 1: we learned to increase how much we we we earned
- 13:21Speaker 1: and we saved a lot tremendously. I mean, collectively we're
- 13:25Speaker 1: self made millionaires. But you wouldn't be able to tell
- 13:27Speaker 1: by looking at us. But you can tell a boy
- 13:28Speaker 1: looking at a bank account. We could tell you about
- 13:32Speaker 1: looking at you, though you need to stop all that.
- 13:36Speaker 1: Definitely the bunch of these stuff, Okay, We could tell
- 13:38Speaker 1: you that your successes in your life but your but
- 13:41Speaker 1: you're smart success. You know you don't have the eight
- 13:44Speaker 1: cars in the garage. That's what you're talking about. You know,
- 13:47Speaker 1: you know you don't vacation on the private jet. That's
- 13:50Speaker 1: what you're talking about. You know. I tell people today,
- 13:52Speaker 1: you know, you know, I know I'm successful, but if
- 13:55Speaker 1: if a good coupon comes sliding across my desk, I
- 13:58Speaker 1: will use it. Okay, you know, bad bathroom beyond, I
- 14:03Speaker 1: will go in there and use that bad bathroom beyond coupon.
- 14:06Speaker 1: That's what she's talking about. So you might see Tiffany
- 14:10Speaker 1: the budget needs to walk it into bad bathroom with
- 14:12Speaker 1: a discount coupon and think, well, I guess you don't
- 14:14Speaker 1: have it going on. She does have it going on
- 14:16Speaker 1: because she realized the value of money. If somebody's going
- 14:19Speaker 1: to give you a discount on something and you can
- 14:21Speaker 1: still buy versus not paying using this discount, the smartest
- 14:25Speaker 1: person is to use the discount. And that's all she's saying.
- 14:28Speaker 1: And that's all I'm saying when I talk to people
- 14:30Speaker 1: about success and understanding that you don't have to be
- 14:34Speaker 1: as they say, flaws and to prove a point, don't
- 14:37Speaker 1: don't take your money ever, to prove a form. Don't
- 14:40Speaker 1: ever show off to the guy next door. I don't.
- 14:43Speaker 1: I don't live a life like that. And that's all
- 14:45Speaker 1: you're saying in your in your brain, correct correct, correct,
- 14:52Speaker 1: There you go, the dream catch your chap. I don't.
- 14:54Speaker 1: I cannot leave this show. What you're talking about the
- 14:57Speaker 1: dream Catchers? What exa actlets this program? And then we're
- 15:01Speaker 1: gonna break down how big it is because women and
- 15:04Speaker 1: especially young women need to be involved. Because I always
- 15:07Speaker 1: tell people is that what you learn in your twenties
- 15:10Speaker 1: is what you are you gonna make money in your
- 15:11Speaker 1: forties and fifties. So if you learn good literacy as
- 15:15Speaker 1: a young person like you did, and guess what, it
- 15:17Speaker 1: will catapult you to be the financial success as you
- 15:20Speaker 1: get older. Tell us about dream Catcher. So DreamCatcher started
- 15:24Speaker 1: because I did a lot of financial education in person,
- 15:28Speaker 1: and as a result, I wanted the students that I
- 15:30Speaker 1: was helping um and they were all age rangers. I
- 15:33Speaker 1: wanted them to have a place to gather and so
- 15:36Speaker 1: UM I started the Facebook group and I called it
- 15:38Speaker 1: dream Catchers Live Richer with a Budget stuff, and it's grown.
- 15:43Speaker 1: It's been what maybe like five or six years we've
- 15:46Speaker 1: grown from that initial to three hundred to three hundred
- 15:51Speaker 1: and fifty or sixty thousand, UM. But really it's about
- 15:54Speaker 1: seven hundred thousand women worldwide. UM. We've got about twenty
- 15:58Speaker 1: or thirty chapters, and and those women meet in person
- 16:02Speaker 1: anywhere from l I just hung out with the Houston
- 16:04Speaker 1: chapter last weekend. There's sixty chapters. Sixty chapters, okay, in
- 16:09Speaker 1: thirty three states, three states. See, I'll tell you, I'm
- 16:13Speaker 1: gonna be you. I'm gonna be your pr guy right now. Okay,
- 16:15Speaker 1: because you know it's good people like this. She's one
- 16:17Speaker 1: of these humble people. You know that. And she's like me.
