We Ignored 50/30/20 | How We Actually Paid Off Debt

Frugal living, saving money, and debt payoff on one income – this video shows the budget method we used to cut expenses, live dirt cheap, and lower our costs without feeling deprived.

During our debt payoff years, we focused on saving money, cutting unnecessary expenses, and using a simple debt snowball to pay off our car and home early. Instead of forcing our life into the 50/30/20 rule, we built a goal‑first budget that matched our actual values and low‑cost lifestyle.

In this video, you’ll learn:

• How we used frugal living to lower our costs without feeling deprived

• The exact budget method we used during debt payoff

• Practical ways to save money on normal family expenses

• How our debt snowball worked step‑by‑step

• The simple system we use now to save 50–60% of one income
