I am just a person that is working for others. I am sure that it is much different if I have my own business but I am pretty sure also they do have their own problems. Right now I am just worry about whether I have enough money to keep me survive until the next pay day. I have been doing my budgeting and the more I analyse the in and out of my money, the panic I become. I really can see that every month I can see that I am totally broke. Maybe some of you might say that only spend for the most important things but I have to tell you that I am that kind of shopping spree person. I do controlling my expenses.

Survival instinct my friend. I know you can make it. If you think you've got nothing to eat the next day, I'm sure your mind won't persuade you to buy that one thing you've been wanting to purchase. Also, avoid going to malls so you won't be tempted.

I am too. I am doing online works which doesn't pay much and I have to pay my internet bills. I have set my mind to be an online earner but I want to earn more $$$ too. So I am between online and offline now.

You are not alone facing financial dilemma as I think most of us are fighting to keep our budget tight till the next payday. Just to keep afloat, you have to play miser. Don't spend unnecessarily.

Well, I too worry about money. I am still a student so I 100% depend on my parents for allowance money and any other spending money. I try to save up and use that for what ever extra I need outside school work. At the moment, I am trying to save up to start a small business. Hopefully, I could reach my goal.

We are in the same boat m friend.I become so much worried and tensed when I come to know that my resources for this month is about to finish.But nowadays,I try to control them and overcome them and drive all my worries and concerns into a force that will help me to work better and harder.This not only gives me better earnings but also confidence that I can tide over tough times like this.

Hang on in there my dear friend. The best is yet to come. Also, you may want to explore another realistic income generating jobs/businesses that could help you make more money. You can't make more money by just being an employee. I, for one is continuously pursuing my online store in facebook. I started last March of this year and honestly for the most months, it's a break even or loss but luckily, it's doing well last month. This month, not bad at all. Also this month, I am joining a multi-level marketing company, their product is an ionized sanitary napkin so the business "can" be forever as it is a necessity item compared to others. I patronize their product myself so earning from them is just a bonus. Then again next year, I will go into the stock market. In short, as young as I am now, I grab every opportunity with lots of studying to plan my future and retirement because they can go away that easily and might not come back again. So take a good look on your surroundings and I am very sure there's so much in store for you. All the best! -MHY

It might help you to explore the topic "frugal living" or "frugal" here. There are several discussions about saving money on the things we need daily that might help you live on less money so you will have some left for savings or other things. It's discouraging to work hard and then only get enough money to get by until the next pay check. Most people can save more than they do on food, clothes and other household expenses.

i believe most people worry about money nowadays. budgets often need to be stretched to til we the next paycheck arrives. a reality for the common worker. sometimes, we also need to forgo some purchasing plans just to hold on the last money we have on our wallets/purse. well, if only we can have better-paying jobs or extra sources of income to help us through, that would be great.
