One great quote Nina Pineda saw was, "I pay a lot of money for my home, so that's where I'll be..home."
No matter what your income is, setting boundaries and priorities will help you with that nest egg.
Myth 6 - Loud budgeting makes you sad.
While budgeting in general doesn't seem like fun, this is trying to make it seem like a movement. Instead of FOMO, if you think of it like you are working for your future self or toward a goal, you are deriving joy from taking care of business.
Myth 7 - Loud budgeting is backlash against millennials and Gen Zers who don't work hard and dug into a debt hole buying $10 matcha.

While this trend may have started on social media, it's for everyone. You can loud budget as a boomer, a millennial, a retiree, or a Gen Z. It doesn't matter when you do it, it just matters if you start.
