Are you a good saver of money?

Had I been serious about saving more than chump change, I could have potentially had enough to buy a home..
Like if I'd started from first job out of HS, even though some years I didn't make much. Just really squandered alot of my money, which, when looking back on it, I don't even have much to show for all the money I've spent, even though I am a thrifty shopper and get good deals.

I think if you were earning a lot more then you could chastise yourself, but you have to live too, and many worthwhile life experiences aren't free.

@SW-User yes, but I haven't had many worthwhile experiences. I think I'm gonna go to the lake today. It's a 1 hour drive. But I think I may trick myself and pull over halfway and have lunch or something.

@iamnikki You should try and get to the lake if you can. It’s hard though, to do new things like this sometimes.

@SW-User Getting there won't be a problem. Really wish I could get in a boat but I don't want to die trying to do something new.

@iamnikki yeah you have to feel comfortable about it. There has to be a way though. I’ll try and think of some ideas.
