Paycheck after paycheck I spent more than 60%. It seems that whenrver I get paid, I feel like buying something with it. Cant resist. Are you like me? or not?

I've allways been brought up to save money where possible. And to never get into debt.

I've always had the same problem; for me, the solution was to get a job that pays enough for me to indulge my whims and still save money.

Nah get paid fortnightly, chuck $500 into savings, pay rent/petrol, and live off the rest.

Just set how much you can save and you sorta have to live around that.

I always feel like if I've got money to spend I will spend it, I used to be very tight with my money.

No it's not. But that means you don't spend it whenever you get it or grab everything you want. Financial discipline.

I used to save all my money, no I do on occasion, but only if I have my eye set on something.

I save money like nuts (like crazy, not like...walnuts, I don't like nuts too much)

Um, anyway, I always got o the bank and put it all away, I save all my change, I haven't really bought myself anything other than fast food for about half a year now, not that I can remember anyways.

That's right. Put your money away the day you get paid.

It's easy if you don't mind going without something. I don't mind not being able to buy everything I want, most of it is stuff that I don't need anyways. It's better to know there is money I can use incase something happens to me and I can't work.

Yeah i save my money...i occasionally buy a new book or maybe a new game but those are pretty cheap compared to what i save up. I would love to spend my money on something but everytime i get to the point of actually being the store and looking at the item i want to buy i end up not wanting it...mostly because i don't need it.

No, I don't usually get caught up in the bull**** consumerism in today's world.
