    Here to learn

    Reply Contact

    Hi everyone,

    My name is Kim and I just joined the forum.  Although I've been debt free now for over 10 years, I feel as though I'm not making progress in generating as much wealth as I could be; mostly due to sloppy budgeting.  I don't care to take the time to track every item, I indulge in eating our and drinking Starbucks, and I sometimes just need a dress for a date tonight.  So, I know where I've gone wrong, and I'm doing my best to get on track.  Hoping to get some great tips and tricks from all of you on how you budget your money so I can learn.

     

    All my best,

    Kim

    All my best,
    Kim

     Can anyone tell me how to upload a photo like some of the other participants have?

    All my best,

    Welcome, Kim. You may be interested in the "no spend days" threads in the Debt Management and Elimination Forums (under "Money Management). It doesn't directly affect debt, but more of a day to day not spending.

    To answer your question, here is a thread that explains it. Please reply to that thread if you have problems with it, so others can find it.

     Hi ... welcome from another Kim - the spending-list really does help track what you buy and you could even be surprized at how much those coffees are costing you!
