I get 2 paychecks a month so the first check goes towards my bills, and the 2nd check I try to bank half of the check. Its worked so far, I have no debt and I've got enough money for my condo downpayment.

I save all my change, and whatever I don't spend of my paychecks. I'm trying to not spend much recently, but if there's something I want I'm going to buy it. o:

I pack my lunch maybe 3 out of 5 days of the work week.

Stopped going out drinking so much.

I have a big jar at home, probably 1/3 filled with coins. Guessing that's about $40-50 now.

I plan on opening a Roth IRA one of these days.
