Do you save or spend ?
I am lucky, I can save alot of my wages a month.
Ive never been in debt in my life or taken a loan out. Even when I was unemployed I was carefull. I bought things when I had the money and after alot of thought.
I have a large amount of money in bank and I wonder sometimes why I am bothering to save so much. What is it for ? I have a few things I want to buy but I hang on for weeks / months before I decide whether to buy them. I don't drink, smoke or have any kind of social life. I don't go on holidays either.
My Dad is like me a saver. My Mam spends like crazy and as got into debt so many times !
I live with my Dad and he always frowns when I spend money. He will say 'you'll be skint now !' when I buy something. And if I mention something I am interested in, he will try and talk me out of it. He has more money than me, over twenty grand yet he hardly spends anything. We need a new kettle, I get these bits in my coffee that I have to fish out. He has been 'thinking' about getting a new one for about 2 years ! Kettle's cost about £30.
People are so funny !
