budget update
I got paid today. WooHoo!
And now I am broke. BooHoo!
I still had $91 left over from last payday, so I put that in savings. I hope I can build up my emergency fund that way.
I paid all of my utilities (All on time. Won't they be surprised)
And then I transferred the balance from my highest interest rate debt to a zero interest card. My intention is to just knock it out whenever the income tax check comes out in the spring time.
Then I budgeted for food and gas and took everything that was left over and...
paid off one of my debts.
So now anything computer related that I have bought in the past is all paid off. Over and done with. The end.
I love you, Newegg but I don't think I will miss you. Thank you for the six months of no interest, no payments. Didn't think that I would pay it all off on the last week before the accrued interest kicked in, did you? Good bye.
Beginning balance: $9048
Currently deferred: $2974
Current balance: $4283
Amount paid off: $1790
Not too bad for the first 17 days of this, wouldn't you think?

Cosmic! Doin' good!!
You are doing great. Posts like these lets me know it is doable.
Sheesh, what are you wasting your money on?
I'm getting intio the budgeting spirit now.
I don't have a wife and kids. I never spend all of my paycheck.
s.r.: Now is definitely the time to do it then. You just got out of school. Do you have student loans to pay off?
Get yourself 100% debt free and stay that way. Then when you sucker some sweet young thing into marrying you it will be Soooo much easier.
I couldn't begin to tell you the hard times my wife and I went through when we were starting out.
