Any advice on what you do. How to fight the urge to spend money?

I have decided enough is enough and going to work hard on working on my issues with spending money. I do great on paying all my bills on time and taking care of responsibilities but the problem is hanging on to that extra money and not spending it.

Any andvice or tips would be great!!

Get mint and track obsessively. Trim your most expensive hobbies. Buy used whenever possible.

@QuixoticSoul my biggest spending issue is food.

@JS1992 That’s also one of the easier to get in line. Learn to cook, you’ll save a ton of money.

@JS1992 Get a cheap rice cooker - it is a path to endless cheap healthy meals. Also, eggs.

@QuixoticSoul okay cool. Any brands you recommend?

@QuixoticSoul eggs are amazing 😌

Beans can be cheap too!

But you'll probably want to mix it up some too.
