Is Personal Finance More Mindset Or Income?

March 27, 2017 By Omar

Is personal finance more mindset or income? Many of you probably looked at this question and said, “Both!”. I agree that the right mentality with a large income is the perfect mix for a successful financial life. But let’s be honest, a “large” income for most people is subjective, especially when it’s so easy to compare yourself to others. I’m sure we’ve all looked at another person’s life and said, “If I made that much money then…”.  I’m definitely guilty of it and struggle with it today if I’m being honest.  I’ve learned that if you can’t live below your means today, adding more money to that equation is only going to make the mess bigger. As humans, it seems like it’s in our nature to consume everything we have which drives the need for more.  This vicious cycle is why the obvious answer is mindset.

Is Personal Finance More Mindset Or Income?  

The Traits & Actions Of A Financial Independent Mindset

As I get older, I see more and more articles about athletes going broke.  While others tend to ridicule these athletes I lean more towards empathy.  Why?  Because I know if I would have been given millions of dollars at their age I would have blown it. These athletes are then analyzed and ridiculed even more in the media for being incompetent.  What if you had media dedicated to covering all the dumb financial stuff you did? There would be breaking news every week!  And the same goes for me before I started living a debt free lifestyle. The only difference between them and me is a little bit of knowledge plus the traits it takes to reach financial independence – financial discipline and delayed gratification. 

Financial Discipline

Financial Discipline comes down to two things:

    1. creating a budget AND living by that budget, and
    2. being able to tell yourself and others, “No”.

These two things will stop one of the most detrimental problems to your plan for financial independence from happening – lifestyle creep.  

Most people that get a raise on the job or get a new job making more money almost immediately find a way to spend it.  Whether it’s getting a new car or buying a new furniture set, people always find a way to spend that new money. These are a few examples of lifestyle creep. Instead of spending that money it could be used to go towards paying off debt or saving for retirement. 

The ability to budget and say no will allow you to maintain your lifestyle as your income increases. The other option is to increase your lifestyle a little bit and then throw the rest towards your plan for financial independence. This doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t enjoy it when your income increases.  By all means, go on a nice vacation.  Go out to an expensive dinner with your significant other.  My point is this:  don’t raise your standard of living to that new income amount so that you have nothing to contribute to your future.  There will come a day when you can’t work or you simply don’t want to anymore.  You need to be able to support yourself when that day comes. Living this way is not always glamorous, but the delayed gratification does and will pay off.

Delayed Gratification

Delayed gratification is one of the hardest areas for many people. There is a kid in every one of us that wants to show the world how well we’re doing financially. We will buy all these things, often times using credit, to impress people so they will think we’re successful. However, the truth is that some of us are only one missed paycheck away from the bank taking all that stuff back. We are nothing but glorified renters. You don’t really own anything when you purchase it through credit (I’m referring to homes and cars).  Miss that car payment and you’ll see who really owns that car.  Miss that mortgage payment and you’ll see how fast the owner wants the house back.

The problem people have with delayed gratification is that you have to wait and save up the money so you can actually buy what you want.  Furthermore, since your income isn’t infinite you have to determine what purchases takes priority over the others.  This is hard.  Really hard. In this microwave culture, nobody wants to take their time to save up for things if they know they can have it today.  

However, there is a perk to delayed gratification.  Have you ever bought something and regretted it a few days or weeks later?  When you have to save up and pay for things it takes time.  Sometimes it can take months or years.  The amount of effort and restraint that takes is hard, to say the least.  Every time you save for that item you subconsciously ask yourself if it is actually worth saving for. You think about what you are passing up on by saving up for this one thing.   You’re basically making the decision over and over again that this is something that you truly want and that you’re willing to give up on other things to get it. You’ve done this so many times that by the time you can finally afford to pay for it, you’re absolutely certain it’s what you want.  There are no regrets! This is the perk to delayed gratification.

Where Does Income Come In?

Everything I’ve discussed in regards to mindset is focused around the idea of setting and maintaining a lifestyle below your means. So where does income come in? Increasing your income furthers the gap between your lifestyle and your means, which amplifies your ability to carry out the goals derived from your mindset – an absolutely beautiful cycle. 

Let’s say today you make 40K per year and you’re able to live on 35K and invest the rest.  Then, one day you get a new job making 50K per year.  At this point you have options!  You can choose to continue to live on 35K and invest 15K or you can choose to increase your lifestyle a little bit to 38K and invest 12K per year.  Nerds, please don’t get bogged down with this example that did not include taxes, etc.  I’m only trying to convey a concept here.  Again, the idea is that if you have the correct mentality, an increase in income amplifies your plan for financial independence significantly.

The other side of income is that you need to have picked a career that allows you to support yourself and have enough left over to work towards financial independence.  Picking a career is an important part of this journey. The ability to live below your means is incredibly difficult when you are barely bringing in enough to provide the basics. If this is the case, you should try to find ways to increase your income and/or cut your spending. 

So, for those that said both are important, there’s no denying that they are. However, it’s your mindset that will determine what you decide to do with your money when it comes to your personal finances. What do you think is more important? Mindset or income? What traits do you think are necessary to reach financial independence?

As of 1/8/2022, it’s been one year since we beca As of 1/8/2022, it’s been one year since we became mortgage free. What better way to celebrate than a date night in our paid off home?! 😏
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So how does it feel?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Financially, we invested the most money we've ever invested. We also increased our lifestyle a bit as well to keep a healthy balance.
 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Kim’s Perspective: 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s been great. For the longest it felt surreal and unbelievable that we actually did it. I never really worried about paying off the mortgage because I knew that worst case scenario, it would be paid off in 15 years, which would’ve been when we were 45 (and that’s not a bad age at all). However, it’s been nice to know that it’s not something that Omar is stressing over anymore. And since it was one of his biggest dreams/goals, it’s nice knowing that I was able to support him 100% of the way in making this happen for us and our family. I’m glad this is something he wanted to pursue and that I was actually on board with it. What I’ve enjoyed most about it is being able to spend more money (of course 😆) because a lot of things were put on hold while we focused on the payoff. So now I feel like I’m at that point where I can make our house more of a home for us. It literally feels like we’re in a new space (mentally and physically) and we’re loving it.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Omar’s Perspective:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This past year has probably been the best year I've had in life. I've been the least stressed I've ever been, but took on the most responsibility at work I've ever taken on which lead to a promotion and an increase in income. This boggles my mind as more responsibility at work usually means more stress. I feel like I’ve been able to focus on other areas of my life more (my health/weight as well as making more of an effort to maintain my relationships with friends/family). Most importantly, I realize the strength of my marriage.  With the state of dating/relationships these days, I realize I won the lottery with Kim.  She's an amazing wife and mother. We've always had a good relationship but we're stronger than ever.  We started from the bottom now we're here (in my Drake voice). 🎶 #thislifeafterdebt
After taking some time to think about what we want After taking some time to think about what we wanted to focus on for this year, we decided that our word for the year is health.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Overall we both want to continue making healthier choices when it comes to eating. And we both want to focus on exercising more than we have in the past and be way more consistent with it.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
At the end of the day, what’s money, financial freedom/independence and wealth if you’re not healthy? And we definitely have high blood pressure, diabetes, etc that run in our families. We have kids to live for and that’s what we plan to do to the best of our ability!
This is what our financial goals ended up looking This is what our financial goals ended up looking like for this year. We’re pretty pleased with the outcome and the fact that we still enjoyed ourselves throughout the year and even made some pretty big purchases (like that whole couch saga I shared in my stories 😆). We’re looking forward to seeing what the next year holds! #thislifeafterdebt
We didn’t officially choose a word for 2021, but We didn’t officially choose a word for 2021, but if we had to say a word that was our word for this year it would be “intentional” by far.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
At the end of 2020 and beginning of 2021 we were very intentional about pulling money from an inherited IRA so that our tax bill wouldn’t be ridiculous like it would have been if we pulled a lump sum at one time. We then used the money to help pay off our mortgage 8 days into 2021.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What we were even more  intentional about was our plan for what we were going to do with our mortgage payment once we didn’t have a mortgage anymore. We didn’t want to frivolously spend that money. So we actually came up with our plan a couple months before making our final payment. But literally after that payment on January 8, 2020, our new mortgage-free budget was in full effect! So yea, “intentional” is definitely a good word to sum up 2021 for us. #thislifeafterdebt
Some of the things we automate are:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Our Budget:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For the longest we use to type everything we were going to spend or save into our budget template. It wasn’t super time consuming but it wasn’t efficient when it came to our regular bills/expenses. Then one day we decided to prefill the template and copy and paste it month to month for our regular bills/expenses. All we have to do is add anything else we spend.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Savings / Investing:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Most of our savings/investing and even our gas and spending money our automated transfers. It beats having to go in and make multiple transfers to our personal accounts and our sinking funds. The 529 accounts for the kids and the Roth IRAs are automatically transferred. But for the brokerage account we have to manually transfer the money because it’s never the same amount each paycheck.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Bill Pay:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’ve never been a fan of bill pay because I don’t like companies having that type of access to my money. 🥴 And whenever they mess up and charge you too much, they’ll try to just credit your account instead of putting the money back in your bank account. 🙄 However, I’m a tad bit more trusting these days. Lol. Our home alarm had no option but to be auto drafted. Since the amount wasn’t much and is always the same price, I agreed. And the only other bill auto drafted is our cell phone bill after many many years (gasp! haha). Some of the other bills are paid via online bill pay via our banking account. #thisfinancialconfession
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Doing all of this has been a game changer and time saver. Are you team automate or team manual?
It’s been a minute since I’ve made a charcuter It’s been a minute since I’ve made a charcuterie board. So I figured Christmas brunch was the perfect time. And plus, that meant less time in the kitchen for me with cooking because I knew I was going to be cooking dinner today. #piecesofsomeday
Merry Christmas! And 2 pictures because it’s gua Merry Christmas! And 2 pictures because it’s guaranteed that someone isn’t going to be looking. 😆 #christmas2021 #piecesofsomeday
We purchased our house for $168.5k (after the down We purchased our house for $168.5k (after the down payment). We refinanced at $165k.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If we took 30 years to pay it off, our total would’ve been $293k.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If we paid the 30-year mortgage like a 15, then it would’ve been $225k.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
After we refinanced to a 15-year, if we took 15 years to pay it off, then our total would’ve been $205k.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Instead, we paid off our mortgage in a little over 7.5 years.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We ended up paying a total of $200k with interest.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Paying $200k for this home with how it looked when we purchased it sounded a lot better than having to pay a total of $293k if we end up being here for 30 years! This was yet another factor that helped us decide to pay it off early. #thislifeafterdebt
Part of the reason we decided to refinance and eve Part of the reason we decided to refinance and even pay our house off early is because of the amount of money we were paying in interest on our mortgage. So of course, several months after we paid off the mortgage I began to wonder just how much did we really pay in interest. So I asked Omar if there was a way to figure it out. At first he was like, “Really Kim?” 😳 And of course I was like, “Ummm yea.” 😬 Lol.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Jun 2013 is when we bought the house. So there wasn’t much interest paid then.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2014 and 2015 is still when we had the 30-year mortgage. It’s also the years that we paid the most interest. We refinanced at the end of 2015.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2016 is when we made our first payment with the 15-year mortgage. It’s crazy how the amount of interest decreased based off that alone.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2019 is when we decided to pay off our mortgage early. It was supposed to take 6 years. But instead we used RSUs and sped it up tremendously.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Jan 2021 is when we paid it off before our first payment would’ve been due. $27 was the last bit of interest we paid on our mortgage.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Grand total: $35,102.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If we had continue to just make regular payments on the 15-year mortgage, we would’ve paid a total of $56,279. A difference of $21,177. 🙌🏽 🙌🏽 #thislifeafterdebt

    Mindset is definitely more important of the two concepts…never downplaying income though, because, let’s admit, we all love and NEED it. Lol! But even if your income increases substantially in a short period of time, if you don’t have the correct money-managing mindset, it will be like you never got a raise or got fatter pockets. Haha!
    Definite good read!

      Exactly! It’s a simple concept but it’s hard to do!

    Mindset! I heard someone say “If there was a equal redistribution of wealth, the 5% would control 95% of the wealth again within 2 years!”

      I probably wouldn’t go that far but I understand the point that person was trying to make. Those with the right mindset know how to keep the income that comes their way. It’s a simple concept in theory but hard as heck to do over decades.

    WOW!!! So enlightening!! I am 60 years old and I wish my eyes were opened to some of this truth many years ago. Just reading this article and thinking if what I know today was applied even 10 year ago, how much more I could have accomplished. If you read this and you are on the wrong path, think seriously about changing your mindset and enjoy life to the fullest when to get to my age.

    I couldn’t agree more about how hard people are on athletes. When I got my first decent paying job out of school I started making more money than I had ever before (less than $35k, but for me that was plenty). Looking back I can’t believe how foolish I was in handling this money. I can only imagine what would have happened if I’d made the multi millions these athlete’s make. My financial irresponsibility would only have been compounded by the number of 0’s. I’m actually finishing up a post that kind of broaches this topic. I’ll be publishing it later this month.
