How thrifty are YOU?

I think I handle my money quite well. I have a part time job, and i work online. The money I make online pays for small bills, like my store credit cards, or gas. And the money I make from working my part time job pays for my car payment which isnt a lot at all. So I don't have to many responsibilities because im a college student living at home. But that's pretty much how i handle my money.

Most months, yes. I need to make some cuts though, so that there is room for things such as tires, eyeglasses, etc.

I need to be thrifty becauseI´m a widow and retired. I have some savings from other moments and those are not touched except for illness. The rest I have learnt to make gourmet food with little money, I will be growing my own vewggies next year, I don´t use dryers , central heating nor aircontitioning. I have one luxury: I love to travel. So I save all my online earnings for vacations. Besides that, I have a piggybank to save coins. All that is for vacations too. I guess that´s about all.

I think i might be too thrifty. I hate to buy things i don't need. Such a waste. I would rather work on a very tight budget. Better to save for emergencies than spending and be stuck. TATA.

i don't think i'm thrifty....i'm just a bit lousy at my own financial management. it used to be much easier when i had someone to help me plan out those stuff. i wish i had a personal assistant or financial advisor or something like that..

for me ,being thrifty is a excellent habit.i am a student who use parents' money to complete study,i will feel guilty if i squander the money.thinking more for my family

I try to be very frugal. But right now, the main reason that we are able to pay down debt at the rate that we are is that we started making a lot more money and didn't really increase our living expenses (we did have to move, but other than the increase in rent, everything else is the same).

i am pretty thrifty. i just dont shop that much but if i do, i shop at thrift stores and garage sales. i save as much money as i can.

hi prime I have to be thrifty as Gold crest takes room and board out of my social security and ssi check every month and i am left with one hundred twenty five dollars for personal needs thus I mylot to pay my internet bill.but since I really enjoy mylotting and being with my friends, its just fun to be here on my lot and hear from all my many wonderful friends.

Well I have always saved money and out it back just in case I needed it. I make sure my bills are up to date and taken care of. Have I ever been in ruts before paying bills? Yes I have. But I had to learn to dig my way back to the top. I would take so much money a week and put it back so I could have it for later when I needed it without hurting the budget.

i am thrifty in a sense that i am not spend money and buy things which is not necessary at all..for me i plan first who is really important to or the things that i needed most..sometimes i saw my friends they use jewelry..it is really interesting to buy too but whenever i think the money i have it is not enough to buy another things..it is enough to our daily needs..maybe i can but those accessories if i have such enough money to savings i have..for me..i can not say that i am thrifty but i can say that i am only a wise spender..

I am generally very thrifty, I can spend money on alot of things, but my main expenditure is on clothes as a guy I love looking good in a pair of new sneakers or jeans. I collect hats jeans music and dvd's. I always have extra money as Idon't have any expenses well they are almost non existent. I believe in making cash purchases most of the time, better than being in debt.

i don't work yet. i'm a second year college student and i've never had work experience before. i'm so excited for that time to come :D hahhaha. about being thrifty, i usually spend half of my daily allowance on food, a small percentage of it for transportation and the other half on my savings. then if i have saved enough, i usually buy stuff especially nail polish :D i'm so addicted to it :))

Last 2-3 months i was spending more than I have ever spent in a month. so to keep in check I started writing my expenditure in a diary.In that I purchased only the items that I want the most.and was happy to control my expenditure..

I am not naturally thrifty but I am disciplining myself. If I have money, I try not to go to malls so I won't be tempted to buy. My father takes care of most of the bills, and our daily consumption so I don't have that to worry much about. I do extend some help if I have money left but right now I am always broke because I have been paying some debts (personal ones), and I am schooling.

Hello prime, At this time of hardship,crisis,unemployment and etc,it is really hard to budget and save money from a very little/small salary. It all depends on your work,salary and how many are there in the family. I only had 3 kids,one in college,one in highschool and elementary. Good thing is,we are not renting a house. With the high electric bills and so many bills to pay on,truly i admit,sometimes my allocated allowance for a month is not enough. Lucky if i can save a hundred or got spare hundreds for the next month. But,i am trying to save at least for emergency cases. I can say i am thrifty,thu how much i tried so hard to cut some costings,still the high price of commodities are not enough to save me for meeting ends with our monthly allowances.

I am quite thrifty with my money. I have had to be in the past. Money wasn't something that was in high quantity in my house. I saved wherever i could because i had to. I don't have to be as thrifty as I used to be, but it's a habit i don't want to break.

I am very thrifty. Or, should I say, I am very frugal. I am an entrepreneur, and all of my income, either from online or offline sources, are allocated for things that will generate me more money, like expansion or a new business opportunity. I want to become a serial entrepreneur, the one who owns multiple businesses, even businesses that are outside my field of expertise which is pharmacy business. I want to venture in new kinds of businesses, like food processing for export. I only set aside a small amount to buy my needs (and not my wants). That's how hard core I am when it comes to treating my earned income.

I'm not really thrifty. I find it hard to save money that I have. As long as I have money, I keep on spending them. My mom said that I have to motivate myself by thinking of something that I want to buy then save money for that. I would start saving for some time, but I would get tired then spend it on a date or something.

i am currently a student. and i got allowance from my guardian. i save money by minimizing my expenses in school such as food or snacks, in that way. i save money jus enough for me to spend to more important things.
