month 2 update

2 months in- something has changed, i pushed the end date to the 14th of april since it marks 4 months and is one last paycheck before i go into making car payments.
also i brought $20 from the savings to the bar the other night because i needed to boost my mood so i DID cheat a little on the saving.

heres the stats so far

$33.75 - people have given me a ride to or from work 45 times. it adds up

$34.74- change from groceries. i budget $20 every two weeks but almost never spend it all, yet i eat well

$107.16- left over "fun" money. i budget out $20 each week for fun. if i want chinese food or a beer, im getting it. problem is- i live in CNY and its fucking cold. so alot of this came from me refusing to leave the house, instead i enjoyed the comfort of tea, a blankie, and the wii.


over all savings has reached $4,106.94 in just 2 months. good paychecks and a nice tax return are to blame for the most of it, but again, this blog was to prove that the little things add up, and im doing a good job proving just that.
