I just had to replace the distributer in my golf....:confused: i feel like i am bailing against the tide. |

 Yes and it is healthy (mentally/physically/fiscally) and not all the difficult if you keep a well stocked kitchen, presuming your car doesn't break down on a daily basis. YMMV Have you ever gone camping? | 
| 
 Yep.  All the time.  I try to go Monday-Thursday without spending any money, if possible. | 
| 
 Naw, I like spending money. | 
| 
 Money is for spendin'. Can't take it with you. |

 Some words of advice I once received on this subject made sense to me: Keep your life simple and before you buy something think: In 6 months will I remember that I have bought, or not bought this item and will that something still mean something to me.  ie food: You'll remember if you starved or you might think you spent too much at that restaurant, or you splurged and it was worth it. or going to the Kart track on a regular basis: I won't remember what lap times I ran or anything special about that week. Therefor I only go with friends on a rare occasion and those days I do remember and I consider money well spent. This mentality has helped me spend money on things that are important to me and keep frivolous spending down. |

 I go through weeks without actually spending any money out of my pocket (or even a card).  When on the road its all expensed, when home I fill the tank every 3 to 4 weeks.  I bring my lunch and I may hit a store once every week or 2. Now my Wife, well thats another story...  BTW - I have been tracking the cost of my eating over the past few weeks - I am keeping it under $4/day and still eating healthy! |

 Hmmmm..Mortgage payment, Property Taxes, House Insurance, Car insurance, Utility bills, Food bills, other miscellaneous expenses. ...just try and get away from those.  I live very low to the ground overall, the only real expense is for my addiction, collecting spoons. Most of U would be aghast at the extent of my spoon collections. |

 It's all about cash flow. I don't keep the greatest books but I know I put at least $30k (in cash) on the street last month. I can't wait for the tax refunds to start. tabs, I have a few spoons to sell. What are you looking for? Jim |

 You'd have to be locked in a dark closet in order not to spend a penny. My usual day (Monday thru Thursday) consists of a $1.25 toll in the morning and most days just whatever I use in gas from driving to and from work.  The weekends are when I end up running up the credit cards. |
