Yay! Pay day!! I'm happy you felt rich for one day.!!😂 Do you ever wonder why so many people enjoy watching your videos? We enjoy watching normal, everyday people face the same type of challenges we all face. You do it with simple grace and humility and we can sympathize and empathize with you and we learn so much about Japanese culture and people.

everything is stages. You started with no job. Now you have paydays. Your bills are covered. You have enough. You have savings. It is small, so what? It is savings. You have enough and more. As long as you allow things to slowly accumulate, instead of wanting everything now, slowly the enough turns into plenty. It's a beautiful thing

You are doing so well. There is a roof over your head; the room has a sofa, table, TV, and a place to sleep. You have some money in the bank. I am proud of you and think you have done wonderfully. Now your attitude is improving, and you feel more at peace. The way you are managing your income vs expenses is a good model for others watching your video. I find that a large number of young people have a very hard time managing their income. Many Blessings from me in Florida.

You are a very responsible person. Keep saving every month. You will make it. I love your lavender top. When I first moved to the US at 26, I only made $632 a month and I still forced myself to save. It will work out.

Hello again Yuri it’s James again from England. I think most people look forward to their paydays. I suppose I’m in a fortunate position owning my home so all that comes out of my account except for food shopping is Utility bills. My wife before she passed away used to say I was good with money and I could save. Granted there is nothing wrong from time to time to treat yourself and why not but I try to make sure I have cash for repair bills to the home and other things. Like my dishwasher broke down and it’s the 2nd time same prob. I thought should get it repaired should I get another installed or just use the old fashioned way and wash them by hand. Guess which I chose. The old fashioned way. lol. I have a lovely home .but sometimes I try to be frugal without not enjoying life. Love watching you shopping and making meals. Still awaiting an invite for a meal lol. Keep safe strong and well Yuri. Love & respect always from England

Good morning Yuri! I like that you have flipped your living room around., looks good and calming! I go through the same budgeting every month here in the US, it is stressful! I can feel your stress as mine is the same, I actually have a small sweet while facing reality! I do the same with Strawberry Pocky from Japan.

Hello Yuri San . I think you are the good example for life living in a hard time.How to control income and expense in each month.You ‘re making clear of expense each day .I think it is a good financial control. A few people do like this. I wish my population in my country can do same as you. Good benefit to family and country.thank you❤
