Perfect

I was going to say basically the exact same thing.

I am kind of the opposite, but i have changed.

If i have the money, i will buy things for people or buy anything for myself.

I got to take something back that i purchased just out of nowhere a little while ago though. That was a nice 90 dollars back into my hands.

I do things like that though, which is horrible. I'll go out and see something that i figure someone will like, or i see something i like, and i buy it. It's really hard to save money when you are like this. I also used to work in a mall about a year ago. I used to buy the most usless things when i worked there.

Anyway, it's hard to save any money at all when you go out and just spend it.

I am saving a lot of money right now though. I have about 800 dollars saved for my business that i am starting. I just spent 300 of what i had saved on business stuff, so all i need to do is save 300 more and i will be ready to roll. I think it feels better to have saved a lot of money for something worth while that you are actually going to use and have fun with and something that will last in your memories or whatever for a long time.
