so i spend wayyyy to much money for a college student. I make about $250/month for the shite job i currently have, and i spend about every penny of it on shit i dont need. For example: With my past paycheck just a few days ago, i blew ~$200 on clothes, accessories, peircings and going out to eat. What the hell should I do to stop spending money???
Halp.

ReplyDeleteBack in high school, a teacher who was more of a mentor to me taught me:
80/20. Spend 80%, save 20%.
Also, get a Costco or Sam's Club membership.
You can live off of a bulk pack of hotpockets for about a week.
It ain't healthy, but it's food.
Hmm that's a tough question
ReplyDeletehaha, i really recognize the situation you're in. i suggest using a feature called "google adsense" for your blog. you can generate a small income when people click on the advertisements that google puts on your blog then. I wish you luck! :>
ReplyDeletei feel for ya man! i do the same :/ just take out $50 a week and ONLY use that! hope it helps ;)
ReplyDeleteI always ask myself "Do I really need this?" in my head before purchasing anything. Helps me change my mind a ton of times.
ReplyDeleteJust buy what you need. Food.
ReplyDeleteJesus man, just buy essentials. And don't go to expensive places as much.
ReplyDeletelol, just buy food... pay for rent, sell some stuff. I eat eggs every day, they're nutritious as well as cheap. You can get a dozen for around a buck.
ReplyDeletejust take a minute before you buy something and really think about it if you need it or not.
ReplyDeleteTo help yourself realize how much you spend never use a credit card or check. Cash allows the brain to make a more accurate decision on how much wealth is being transferred.
ReplyDeleteI used to have the same problem. Solution: destroy debit card, request a new one from the bank. Allows you to save money for at least a week, sometimes two, depending on how quickly your bank will process the request for a new card.
