Hey, folks... How are you today?
So, I love it when I look at my monthly spending spreadsheet and see that I've managed to save some money (this is very important for me).
I'm very happy because I see that I have managed to achieve my goal of being able to save more and more money for future dreams.
Do you usually control all your expenses?

I'm always somehow 'stuck' between 'I need to save money' and ' You only live once'

Not really, I am a spender and not a saver. I try though.

@WiseGhots I can work on it. Right now my main goal is to pay down my credit card

We try to watch what we buy so we don’t spend too much. I also have certain accounts where we can not move money.

I'm good! Hey! I'm very happy for you. I sort of... let credit cards get the best of me a bit. So now, I'm very careful - I budget - make payments that are big enough to make a difference, but not so big that I'm short and using the cards again. I have paid off several. It's great.

Yes but this month is quiet high because of unexpected things to pay.But next month must focus on saving again.

Good news Ghost thumbs up to that! As for me I always try to save up some money, but then I wind up spending it in something that I don't even need. :S I need to work on reducing my expenses lol

I take control of my expenses too. It´s important to have some extra money from the money one makes for those unpredictable expenses

I have never sat down and actually tracked my finances. I know I should but honestly with just checking my bank app everyday to make sure we are good with our current balance and the flow of money coming and going is a relief in itself.

Thanks.
Just don't waste the money with things that you don't need.

i try to behave myself when it comes to spending money...and i'm usually good at it....about 90% of the time sometimes i just have to splurge a little. But yes, it's very satisfying knowing your budget and seeing what you can and can't work with.
