An era of fiscal responsibility

[firelily]

So I was working out my finances with a coworker because she's been budgeting herself like crazy and has saved an obscene amount of money in the past month or two. So much that by the time she goes to Italy with her girlfriend in August, they'll be able to pay for the trip and have like $2000 spending money each. Goddamn

Yeah!! I can use more record keeping I think...it'll help keep me honest.

I think I could be saving more than $400 at this point but I budgeted in $300 a month for food...if I can just lower that amount, it'll make room for other things that pop up (like the $333 gym membership I just paid for and the birthday presents I just bought) and maybe I could even put more in savings each paycheck.
