I have some of each pay automatically put into my savings account before I have a chance to touch it.  I also try to put $20 or so of each pay into an envelope for my up-coming vacation.  Sometimes saving is hard, especially during the holidays, but it pays off in the long run.

I am a dedicated saver. My family have a lot of needs, so I try to make things as comfortable as I can, but what extra I have I do put on the side for the future use and for emergencies. I would like to have more fun with my money, but I don't think I make as much I would like based on the point in my life to do this.

I always save unless I have a specific reason to spend it. Sometimes I know where my payout is going, but other than that it goes straight in the savings and hopefully stays there until I need it for something big!

I save half and spend the rest, when I get some money to spend as I like.

Savings right now is a luxury.   We have both been out of work for a while, but things are now finally beginning to look up.  So I do put a tiny amount in from every check and just pretend it is not there.  We are so far behind on everything I don't know if we will ever get caught up.  (WE WILL!)  I am so glad that we had always had savings before, we would have lost our house if we had not.

I have a hard time making the bills some months so I don't really save much, but I try!  It seems as though somethings always comes up and grabs whatever I try to save.

I save what I can. The problem isn't putting it aside to save. The problem is keeping it in savings. For a few months the vet got just about everything that was supposed to be going into savings, so rebuilding the rainy day fund is a big goal for the new year.

I thought I'm a good saver on my monies but lately as I was looking at my statements for each month. I found that I was speeding above my means. I plan to re evaluate what I spend so I can keep more monies in the bank instead of the negative line. :thumbsup:

I usually tell myself I'll savt at LEAST half of the money I get (which comes from FC, aka my only source of $ since I'm a Freshman in college) but I end up saving it all and putting it in the bank--which I guess isn't bad.
Opinion: 1) a view, judgment, or appraisal formed in the mind about a particular matter 2) belief stronger than impression and less strong than positive knowledge
This is the internet, learn to let people have opinions. And don't be so sensitive.  8)

I have some money automatically taken out each paycheck that goes into my online savings account and save whatever I can.  But I use most of it to pay some of my bills that are due annually. So i don't think I really save anything after that.

When I began to make some money with my Online business, then I will save.  Every penny I get now goes toward paying bills.

I cant remember the last time I tried to save money. I guess  you have to have a little extra to do it and right now there is no extra,got to use every penny. :cat:
