Where Does Your Money Go?
Let’s get to the bottom of that question. For the next seven days, write down every dollar you spend.
Everything. The $3 snack. The $5 coffee. The $20 you spent at the store. Even the little things you might normally forget.
Don’t try to change your spending yet. Just keep track of it.
At the end of the week, take a look at where your money went. You may be surprised by what you find.

It used to be you could stay home and avoid spending money. But no more. You can shop all day and night from the comfort of your own home. It's just like sitting at a slot machine and never winning.
The best way to save, is don't spend. Money comes through work, then disappears through job loss, helping others, or medical emergencies. Keeping that in mind is an incentive to question the logic of every purchase because you never know what the future might bring.
