 Hey everyone and welcome to Norris Cove. I'm Yoshida and today it is paycheck to paycheck my weekly check-in So if that is something that you would be interested in stay tuned. Okay, you guys So this is our paycheck to paycheck Weekly check-in. I guess I'll use this side here and I want to go A monthly view Y'all I'm slacking I did not do a November budget I had planned to just didn't do it and I'm not gonna lie to you I've been all over the place since so I'm gonna go off of October Okay, so I'm gonna put my October calendar to the side so that I can check dates. Okay, so this is the week of I think Let me check It's November the 14th through the 20th Okay, and I shut down my Etsy shop So I won't be putting that down. But listen, I'll just put nails down. So our source is hair Shop of our And nails So if you are new here, I am self-employed. I do hair nails, I run a Shopify Etsy for my stationary business and Those are my sources of income Sometimes it may sell old planners things like that, but I do not receive a paycheck again I am self-employed clear across the board. So let's jump into our Guestimate when you're self-employed you have to kind of guesstimate you really don't know what you're gonna make So I try to stay on the low end. So for hair, I'm gonna put 750 It may be more. I'm kind of thinking it's already been more but anyway Shopify. I'm gonna put zip I have not doing been doing any promoting Doing anything. I'm thinking about releasing something this week. So right now I'm just gonna leave it at zero because I'm just trying to get my momentum with the nails with nails this week I'm gonna put I'm 75 That's what I kind of been making Again, if you're new here, I'm getting back into nails So I'm just doing kind of practice sets. They're welcome to tip me I do have some people who pay full price, but right now I'm just doing some practice sets and they are tipping So that told me is I think I know this but I For the week already so the bills do this week you guys I'm trying to remember everything almost. We got some bills. So we have on the 15th. Capital one was due. I Already paid them and that was Okay, I gave them $30. Okay, and then on the 17th. I have City Bank and I gave them 31 and Then 18th is Barclays. I've already paid these They just haven't come out my account yet and they'll probably be coming out was this Tuesday They'll probably be coming out like Friday and that's 81. I gave Barclays 81 dollars One that's 20th. I Have my car note And that's one eighty one Sixty also on the 20th. I have my loan and That is normally ninety six dollars. I'm gonna give them a hundred and then also I have Shopify payment that is Fifty five dollars Let's hope we have enough and they're gonna take that on the 19th and then my booth rent That is due the 19th as well and that is two hundred and remember My booth rent will be going up next month. So I really need to start putting the extra into some cash envelopes I will be back to my cash envelopes. I'm not gonna lie to you guys. I've just anything extra I've been Spending and supplying the nail business. So It is what it is, but I do try to save here and there So let me do a calculation The total is six hundred and seventy eight dollars and sixty seven We just made it and I still feel like I'm forgetting something, but we're gonna put down six seventy eight I'm just gonna leave it at six seventy eight. Okay, and that's gonna be our total so Not doing anything towards that is Something I wanted to do I want to put In my cash envelope here booth rent I Want to put it extra ten dollars aside for the coming month I bought some nail suppliers already this week. So I need to be given nail supplies something. I'm gonna give Them 20 because I'm trying to save up for something big for that and What else right now? That's it So I've said in the past couple videos that I realized I am not Zero base budget I could be I can zero base my budget out but for real for real. I'm not a zero base budgeter So I like to throw that out there and now I don't feel What's the word I'm looking for? I don't feel pressured to Try to zero basis out and necessarily stick with it So if you're feeling overwhelmed and your self-employed like me and you're feeling overwhelmed to zero base your budget out don't Just it is what it is. So um, that is that Let's see. Let's get to calculating and well, that's 30 dollars and then let's do some more Calculating here and see what we would have left So we're going to take this 678 60 we're going to add the 30 That leaves us with 708 60 and then we're going to subtract that from 8 25 And we should have about 116 dollars left and that's pretty much on the accurate side I'm going to put it down here I mean in the notes leftover And that's pretty much accurate. Um, at least with 116 dollars for my miscellaneous items things like that And that's it you guys that is my budget for the week. Let me zoom out a little bit And this works for me Um, I apologize for not coming in checking out weekly, but I've just been trying to balance it all you guys and I've told you I have to focus and I've just been really focused on Building my nail business and nail clients and it's actually going pretty well. So as you can see I did not Do nothing To November November is there I have not wrote anything down. I need to get in here and do that But um, yeah, so I will be back with some I will be doing my december budget I will be doing next week's budget. I'm a little late today But I did want to get this out to you guys because I need to look at this budget I need to stick to my budget and I will be honest with you guys also I wasn't focused on my budget where I check it at least daily I wasn't focused y'all. I had to pay the late fee on a credit card because I was not focused so Try to be mindful of your budget check it at least every other day You know, maybe put some alerts on your phone And I didn't have an alert on my phone for this particular credit card because it was a new Kind of credit card that last one I got before I went to vegas. So that wasn't set up as an alert on my phone So now I double check my budget I try to check in a little bit more And I was like, I gotta continue my videos with you guys because you all are holding me accountable It's allowing me to see where my money is going and what's due and it stays in the front of my mind.
