    ha i just saw this

    i dumpster dive for stuff
    my dad taught me well
    i used to be embarrassed by it, but it's something that i've fallen into at times, when i see something good in someones garbage i'm gonna take it :D

    dumpster diving for food is something i could do maybe...i'd rather wash dishes in a restaurant or something before i go to the dumpster :D

    i find it so easy NOT to spend money
    except for the bars here, my money goes fast
    and transportation
    those are the things i spend money on right now


    i should write a book on how not to spend money, it could make me wealthy then i could spend money :D

    I just figured out my budget for 2008 and Kevin and I need $2,100 a month to survive. That includes groceries, gas, all of the bills, and $30 each a week for other necessities (car stuff, emergencies). He's paying all of the bills when he moves in after the 1st, though, so I can focus more on school and work part time.

    I spend about £500-600 a month on groceries, bills, going out, books, dog, and all sorts of random things. We own the house we live in and it's all paid for which is good. I could survive on a lot less and have done so before but the more money you have the more you spend... or that's how it is with me anyway. :tongue:

    I can do about 500,000 won, probably. I don't have to pay rent or transportation, and I get a free meal every day in the cafeteria... and I do nothing most of the time. So I have heaps left over for savings and travel.

    I could probably survive on $400 a month, including gas, food, and house. I Spend another $120 a month on martial arts lessons, and waste a bit more on food and drinking ...partying.

    lol I can understand it I just don't care.. money's meant to be spent when you're in the grave it won't matter anymore (that's why you gotta have kids so they can pay for your debts for you after you die)
