Suze Orman’s Top 26 Tips That Will Save You From Financial Disaster
Gabrielle Olya Sat, July 31, 2021
Suze Orman was working as a waitress and making $400 a month at 29 years old. She then decided to take a chance on a major career change and landed a job as a broker for Merrill Lynch.
Having been on both ends of the financial spectrum, Orman knows what it takes to make the leap from broke to wealthy, and is now one of the most respected voices in personal finance -- as well as a New York Times bestselling author with more than 25 million books in circulation. According to Celebrity Net Worth, she is worth some $75 million, indicating that she’s followed her own financial advice for saving, investing and preparing for retirement.
As any self-made millionaire will tell you, going from rags to riches takes hard work. It also calls for tons of tried and true personal finance strategies to maintain and build financial success.
Live Within Your Needs but Below Your Means
Living within your needs but below your means is the golden rule of the Suze Orman budget. Although food and shelter are needs, you might be spending too much on these essentials.
"How much you choose to spend on your basic needs is a squishy number dependent on the choices you make," Orman wrote in a blog post on her website. "For example, a mortgage lender may tell you that you will qualify for a $250,000 mortgage. But if you can find a great home that meets your family’s needs and it costs $195,000 you will save a lot of money that can be used for other important goals. The $195,000 home fits your needs."
Don't Lease a Car — Buy Instead
"Leasing is a horrible financial move," Orman wrote in a blog post. "It is the auto industry’s way to get you to buy a car you can’t really afford. (...) The big problem is that when you lease there’s the temptation to keep leasing forever. So every three years — the standard lease length — you turn in your car and lease another. That means you are signing on for never-ending monthly car payments."
Orman explained that buying is better because once you pay off your loan, you have that extra monthly payment to build your emergency fund, contribute to a retirement account, save for a home down payment or meet another financial goal.
Stop Paying Extra for Minor Conveniences
The difference in the cost of paying for food delivery instead of cooking or hopping in an Uber instead of taking the bus might seem small, but the expense of always taking the convenient option will add up over time.

Egon von Greyerz: Why a 70% to 90% Market Collapse is Inevitable
As Good As Gold Aurstralia: 11-10-2026
In this exclusive interview, the legendary Egon von Greyerz joins As Good As Gold Australia to break down the historic volatility currently shaking the precious metals market and what investors must prepare for next.
With silver correcting nearly 50% from its historic peak of $121.62 USD set earlier this year, and gold pulling back from its record high of $5,589 USD to trade just above $4,000 USD, the market is in a major consolidation phase.
But despite margin hikes and hawkish monetary policy triggering this sharp pullback, the underlying fundamentals are flashing warning signs.
