Are you careful with your money?

I was NOT careful. I had a party with my credit cards...bought anything I wanted...and it crept up on me. Suddenly, I had to charge a huge car repair, followed by having to charge a large dental bill. That took the balances up beyond where I could pay the minimum.

I saw National Debt Relief on television, and I said, "Sign me up!" It's the hardest thing I ever did.
I can't go out to eat anymore. I can't even stop at McDonald's and grab a burger.

I have such a strict budget now that, after my bills are paid, I can save $50, and if I am lucky, I have $50 or more left to buy things like cleaning supplies, or paper products, or water filters, or batteries. And I never, never have enough money to buy them all at once.

I have just finished two years of the Debt relief program, and I have about 3 more years to go.

I was more careful with it when i was younger. Now i do spend a bit more on luxuries and holidays. You can't take your money with you, so you should enjoy it while you are still able to.

Tbh i wasnt then i met my partner and she looks after the finances..which is a good think otherwise id still be living wage to wage

no. I see a few of these and the next thing I know I don’t have a quarter for a cart at aldi 😞

Yes, but our desires are simple so not much money is needed. We are retired and try to spend less than our investments earn each year. So far, we are succeeding.

I do my best to keep the economy moving.

I’m not careful with money per se. I’m very careful with my credit.

Yes. When you are on pensions even if not actually in near penury, you do have to realise you cannot be profligate.

Yes and no. I'm on track to be able to afford to retire at 30 but still buy myself whatever I want and am very wasteful

I saved more for the government to take from me.

Every time I save up a nest egg. Government comes along and robs my 401k, IRAs, and Whatnots. I'm better off saving cash in jars and burying it in my yards.

Mostly

When money starts to be careful with me, I'll be careful with it! 🙃

It's a mutual respect relationship or nothing.

Yes,always.

Nooo not really. Totally impulsive shopper.

Anyone else buy more stock with divideds?

Yes.

Nope, but I’m trying to get better.

I'm extremely careful.

Yes I launder it regularly 😊

What little i have

I think I need to be more concerned about investing more profitably my savings.

Most days, I spend like I'm in Congress.

Not as much as I should be.

No I'm a spender 🤷🏻‍♀

Try to be , as much as possible . 🙏

there's nothing to be careful cause i don't have money..🤦🤦😂

I'm stingy, yes.

I can make $5 last a week but $500 last a second

Not at the store 😅

I am a little more frugal in my day to day living so I can have the money to travel a few times a year.

Trying to be, as I hope to retire one day.

[@sw-question] to a fashion i will spend it but not happy to waste it and throw it about frivolously

Yes I never spend a penny of my own money. I spend a shit ton of my boyfriend, brother, and daddy's money though 😂

Oh hell yeah. I have a Scottish heritage! 🤷

Not when it comes to eating 😏😒🤦

What is this "money" you speak of??

I have no real concept of time or money, I am a dog.

Nowadays yes I sure am

Yes
