Debt has taken over!

Where is my money going!? 

                   I asked myself this question a few days ago, after just 4 days, my whole paycheck GONE, except $50. Somethings got to give. This blog is going to help me keep track of my spending, give tips to others who are trying to conserve money, and offer guidance to anyone in my same situation. 

  • First of all, I took my last $50, and put it in a shoe box where it will STAY. Savings

                  Now, I'm going to monitor my purchases. Recently, I've considered buying a kindle. $200, that I don't really need, since I have the Kindle app on my phone, Relatively the same thing. 

  • Paying my $500 credit card debt off, is my next goal. 
                   By careless spending, I've racked up a good amount of debt through the use of a credit card. UGH! Half the merchandise purchased with that card was senseless, careless, conscienceless spending.
