Jan 11, 2020 | Budgeting, Budgeting Tips

Are you sick and tired of being broke and tired? We have exciting news for you! Budget Boot Camp is BACK and better than ever! Here's everything you need to know about getting out of debt and living your best life – and why you need Budget Boot Camp!

Are you so over crying into your empty purse and hearing an echo? Oh, honey, I've been there. It wasn't that terribly long ago when we were in debt and had huge decisions to make. To sell the couch, to not sell the couch (oh yeah. The struggle was REAL)… would it even make a dent in the debt we had weighing down our future?

Fast forward, and thanks to small yet significant changes we were willing to make as a family, our debt was kicked. to. the. curb! Now, I've spent the last decade helping families just like yours all over the world learn to budget, get out of debt, stop fighting about money, spend less, and find MORE money to do MORE of what is important to them.


What is Budget Boot Camp?

Watch this super short video for a quick overview/sneak peek of what it is:

Listen. If you've ever wanted to try Budget Boot Camp, NOW IS THE TIME!

I have poured my heart, soul, time, and brainpower into a project that has been years in the works. I never in my wildest dreams thought it would be as big of an ordeal as it ended up being, but every painstaking minute has been worth it!

The Budget Boot Camp (BBC) Program is not your mama's finance program! It's an online program that holds your hand, step by step and inch by inch, through the exact steps needed to Whip Your Wallet Into Shape and accomplish ALL of your financial goals – on any income, might I add.

What started as one-on-one coaching and consulting evolved into a small group conference. That conference sold out, which led to a big conference. The big conference sold out (year after year), so I shared more on YouTube, Instagram, in classes, live Q&A's, blog posts, you name it. The more I shared, the more questions I got.

The more questions I got, the more I worked to find a way to make these principles as simple as possible for everyone. Then in 2016 (after an entire year of painstaking blood, sweat, and tears) I launched my digital baby, Budget Boot Camp!

Now, I'm here to share my tried and true tips with you that saved my family!


Reasons Why You Don't Want to Miss Out

This program is a compilation of all my best secrets, tips, financial principles, and ideas in one place, in order, showing you all my secret sauce regarding budgeting, family finances, spending and saving money, debt, and MORE!

I show you exactly how we got out of $15K credit card debt in one year, how we can afford to live in a million-dollar dream home, travel, shop, and live the life of our dreams… and I show YOU exactly how to do it too!

    I am super excited to hear about Budget Boot Camp and looks like a great program, will you possibly be offering the ability to pay monthly? That I think would be a great option for those who cannot pay in full if you should choose to do so.

    Thanks!

      Yes absolutely! Once the program is fully launched, in a week or two is the plan, we will have 3 options – two of which will be payment plans.

    Very exciting! I would love to buy the entire course at some point, but am financially unable to do so this week.

    Would you consider offering a reduce price “lite” version featuring a small portion of the package?

    Will Budget Boot camp have an online access as you have done in the past?

    Thanks for all you do, Jordan!

    Reply
    • FunCheapOrFree

      Great questions, Ashley! I love the idea of a “lite” version! Unfortunately it’s physically impossible with the currently program, only because there are 27 videos, many of them 30 minutes long or more. that’s a LOT of content, that cost me over $10,000 to produce which means I wouldn’t be able to change them at this point. The problem is if I remove some of the videos to make the program “lite”, they wouldn’t make sense! One video completely depends on the video before it, and before it, and before it, for the program to work. UGH!!!! BUT – – – – I love your idea of a “lite” program. Maybe I can find a way to produce something, in time! I’ll put it on the table, thanks so much Ashley!!

    I just pre-ordered! I’m so excited to check out the program! I have been diligent about our family finances for the last few years but sometimes I find it difficult to pull back on the reigns and I believe you can always learn more. It is highly unlikely that I would have purchased a program from ANYBODY except you, Jordan! You’re such a breath of fresh air. I support you completely, girl! Can’t wait for the launch!

    That’s so great! yay!!! It’s so great to see you reaching more and more people with your frugal advice!!! Congrats! I do have a question though- I’m hesitant to buy the plan because I’ve been following you for 4 years now and have pretty much gone through your blog with a fine tooth comb and have put everything into practice. (It’s been a life changer!! Thank you!!) I would love to learn more, of course! But my question is: Will it be redundant? I just don’t want to spend that much money for things I’ve already learned from you ya know? I hope this made sense…

    Thanks Jordan! You’re the BEST!

        GREAT question! Believe it or not, I would say MOST of the videos are things NOT said on my website. There’s only so much you can type. In the videos I go into much more depth, visually and verbally, on things that maybe I have written about in the past, but only scratched the surface on. The entire program is based around a “theme” that I’ve never really talked about on my blog. But there is quite a bit of new information and videos in the program – including a video from my husband! Really, the best thing I can say is just try it. It won’t be $99 again – ever – so the worst you could do is try it, go through the program, and if it doesn’t save you AT LEAST $99, then you get a refund! To add – there are 27 videos…over 16 HOURS of content. I promise you, you will be BOMBARDED with stuff you’ve never heard before, ha! (for better or for worse, hehe)

      The BBC program is an online program that you can watch from anywhere in the world! But if you are talking about the BBC Conference, then yes, you’re welcome to give your tickets to anyone! Just email and let me know so I can put it under their name, so I have them on my registration list.

    Hi Jordan! Love your blog and your energy. I just found your blog in November and started putting your ideas to work in January and have already paid off an extra 2000.00 of credit Card Debt!!!!!! I just purchased your boot camp and cant wait to get started. I cant make it to the Budget Conference which you offer tickets to but if I sign up for the ticket can I watch on line or get access to the videos? I realize you are already giving us a great deal with the discounted purchase price but I sure would hate to miss out on any extra advice you have to share.

      Great question, also asked by another commenter! The reality is that I only have a week to put this conference together and doubt I’d be able to come up with a solution for recording/broadcasting it. But, I will see what I can do! And pretty much everything we talk about will be in the BBC program anyway, so don’t feel like you’re missing too much! I’ll see what I can do though, thanks!

    I can’t decide if I should bite the bullet and pay the $99. I don’t even have enough money to pay my bills lol. I feel I am pretty awesome at meal planning etc. But struggle with impulsive spending. Also I have trouble telling my husband we can’t afford things. Will this program help mainly with impulsive spending. Also do you cover any apps that would help in this journey?

    Thanks you are amazing!!!!

    Reply
    • FunCheapOrFree

      Yes yes and yes, the program covers everything you mentioned! I know, trust me, $99 is a TON when finances are tight. But just remember if it doesn’t save you AT LEAST $99, you get your money back. Meaning, you’ll save WAY more than $99, or you’re out nothing! So if there’s any way to cut out eating out, or cut back on groceries, or sell something (my husband sold his old Ti83 calculator from high school recently for $50!) to make a few bucks, might be worth it to try!

      Hmmm…interesting thought! Maybe there is a way we can digitally televise it? Not sure if I can pull it off in time, it would be too long for a webinar…I’ll see what I can do! But realistically with only a week and something I might not be able to pull it off, but most of the info we will cover is in the BBC program at least!

I found you and Dave Ramsey at about the same time, but didn’t get really serious about our budget until the last 2 years. We’ve paid off over $45,000 so far in debt thanks to you and Dave, and just have the last $15,000 left to go. Hoping this program helps keep me motivated and gives me a few new tips to get it done faster!! Love you Jordan and appreciate all that you do!!

      Yes! The program covers SO MANY THINGS that haven’t been featured on my blog, especially. The theme is similar to past FBC’s, but are updated, more robust, and more has been added. So it’s still beneficial for sure. And hey, if it’s not, I’ll refund your money! So nothing to lose!

    Question for ya. My husband and I have a real estate investment business on the side, so our finances are somewhat complicated. Do you address that sort of thing in the program?

    I’m also curious to hear your thoughts on funneling income into a business for the sake of growing/improving it (and ideally switching over to it full-time someday instead of the regular job!) vs. spending on current family needs & wants. Balancing long-term investment payoff with here-and-now uber-austerity can be tricky. 🙂

      Oh and as for growing the business…this could be an entire post in and of itself. My husband didn’t take income for 1 year, and I supported us, so he could pump it all back into the business. We gave ourselves a deadline and had rules and goals in place. It was the right decision for us, you just have to decide for yourself! Sorry that’s not helpful but it’s just such a personal decision!

      It’s best if you do it with him, but doing it on your own is better than nothing! And remember, it’s yours for life. Start the program on your own, teach him snippets of what you learn, and he’ll see that it works and will get excited 🙂

    Hi,

    I bought budget boot camp for 99.00 in the pre sale and then today while watching your periscope you said anyone could go to the website and pre order for an extra 10% off could I get the extra 10% off from my 99.00 purchase?

    This would cover the exchange rate I paid since I am from Canada.

    Does boot camp cover how to slash expenses even more, like how to survive on a lower-than-average (Less than $100 per person) budget? Because that’s what we’re looking at and it feels impossible! 🙂
