randy_tho Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 Yeah thats no good. Does that include student debts? Books, tuition, etc? If I see something I want I always wait at least a month and if I still want it as much as I did I start thinking about buying it. If its a big purchase like your LCDs I wait even longer and only would buy if I really feel I need it and I have enough money to waste. Needless to say I don't have one. :) If you must buy something keep track of what you bring in and spend some on something to reward yourself or put that in to a future purchase. I knew too many people in debt from college. It's not a good place to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garrett C Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 My policy on buying things is similar to randy_tho's. I usually wait. I never charge anything. If I don't have the money to buy it right then, I don't need it. I save money out the ass too. Kind of scary. I treat myself to good stuff though, so I stay happy.

Dazzla Veteran Posted January 7, 2005 Veteran Share Posted January 7, 2005 I was 7k in debt after finishing edu, but I wasn't stupid enough to go wasting what money I was earning on crap I didn't need over paying off the student loan. I paid my student loan off first then spent my money on crap I didn't need :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
