I'm a woman but I still like way more saving money then spending it. I hate spending more then my mental allowance allows me and that's way less then my income but what frustrates me even more is buying something I don't truly need or want. I also hate spending money at places like it's not worth it time vs pleasure kinda rule in my own head. Like going to the theater that's somewhere I don't go to often knowing now that less then 6 months after you can have the movie for 5$ instead of 20$. I don't mind as much the 15$ per month on a video game knowing how much time I spend on it... I find it pretty worthy at the end of the deal.

Finally I hate shopping. When I have to enter a store I like knowing exactly what I want and exactly where I can find it. Having to run through 20 stores and not finding what I want makes me mad. I'd rather just stay at home then do that.

Any one else have the same problem? Never wanting to spend any money?
However, if you guys all knew the deal me and Fluffy got...you'd SMACK him if he didn't buy it. He got a 42" Plasma (I believe Pioneer) HD TV (720p) WITH a DVD player, a BRAND new HDMI cable (still in the box), another HDMI cable opened, and a pretty sweet looking tv stand. Also, the tv is under a 3 year warranty with 2 years left. Overall price: $650. I had to shove him outta the door to go get it so tell him he's INSANE to feel bad

I dont hate spending money, ill throw money out if i see something i wanna buy (dont im not too much of an impulse buyer) but i do get a feeling of regret when i go see the bank balance a little bit later, even if it dropped a minor amount.

I love investing my money. My oldest sons college fund took me 6 years to put $30,000 in it. Its made $10,000 in interest. So it now has $40k. Banks are ok to save some emergency money but check out some mutual funds to make some good money that you dont have to handle your self.

lol!

I wish I could save money better! I never buy anything on credit, but I spend my money almost as fast as I get it.

I could name a ton of things I would buy if I had a few thousand dollars to spare right now!

Not one of them practical

Ever since I was younger I would save money. If I don't have to spend money than I will avoid it at all costs. Lately my girlfriend has got me to splurge a little, especially on food, and being a poor college student doesn't help.

Always save money here, only time I spend money is for gas/going out with the girlfriend. Gotta love scholarships for college.
