my other account, the one I live on and pay the bills with. I do not miss the $75, it is building up and that was how I was able to take my first solo trip, I saved for it. I never did that before. I don’t have credit cards anymore, I still look at things as do I need it or do I want it. I save for things that I want. I appreciate them so much more.
Am I financially secure, no. I still am rebuilding my credit after damaging it, but I can say now I am much better at handling money now. Sometimes you need to hit bottom to get your act together and sometimes you need to change your mind set to get financially responsible. In my case it was both, and I am very glad I did. We can come up with all the excuses as to why cannot save, but the truth is it just takes a little effort, and actually doing it to see it rally can be done. When you do what I do, you don’t see the money in the check you live on, so you’re not tempted to spend it. The secret so can save, hide the ATM card. Mine well in the lingerie drawer hidden so I do not use it. It can be done, when you’re ready to save, you can do it. Now if I can only find legit make money on the internet, without spending money on it, I will be good for gas money!
