Just when i thought i was broke...

Good for you toni, you have lots of money coming! And you careful with whatever you have in your pocket. You're husband will truly trust you and hey i like your avatar more than your previous. :)

hi toni. count me in as one of the frugal people here in mylot. lol! anyway, i do the same when i get my salary, i withdraw everything and transfer the amount i want to save in my personal savings account and then keep whatever amount i need to pay for my bills and everyday expenses. any excess from what i keep for my expenses i stash away as additional savings. additionally, i also make sure that i look for ways to continue to save some more. good for you to get an unexpected sum of money. it really is a pleasant surprise when that happens. hopefully, it happens to all of us more often.

Hi tony! It means you are going to get unexpected windfall. Hope it reaches you sooner than later. My advice is – don’t feel hesitant to spend the amount on you because it is meant for spending, either today or tomorrow. Had I received this kind of bonus, I would have spend it immediately on receipt.

But i won't be spending the money as well. That is good for me. Now that you have decided not to spend that money, give that money to me... I loved the word "frugal" not sure how and where will I be using it but I will

I like unexpected money! Just this week I thought I already had cashed out my money in my ATM. And to my surprise, I still have Php10k on it. We used it to pay for our house amortization.

haha it's best to be careful with your money, although what my partner and i do, is when we get an extra amount of money that we weren't expecting.. we usually spend it on someone great and nice for ourselves, that we wouldn't normally have been able to get because we had to budget :)

hey thats cool. make sure you use the money wisely. i got an inheritance earlier in the year and we used it to pay bills!

even how much frugal living i want to be, i still could not even leave something in the bank to save. i am glad you do it and there is someone, at least someone who will be there for you when you are broke. i am broke, everytime, even during paydays because everything i will earn with this job are already reserved for paying the bills, rent, and the needs of the entire family.

SWEET! Could he send me some dividends while he's at it??? LOL. Just kidding. It must be a nice surprise...

hi, its really hard to move and live without money in our side,so to save money i have to be frugal,after i receive my salary i automatically save it to my saving bank so that when i need money i know i could have it and anytime i can withdraw it.its better to be frugal than to be a very expensive person.

What a wonderful surprise of unexpected money. Congratulations for not being broke. It is good to be frugal for future days. Have a most glorious time all of you!

It feels nice when that happens doesn't it?? I aso put some money in my purse and call myself broke when I'm running out of it. And that's when I go to the bank and take out some again. But last this week when my purse was almost empty, I had some relative m=give me some money coz we had a family thingy here. It's just something they do coz we are still kids and the youngest of the family I was so glad coz I wasn't really thinking they'd hehe!!

wow.. lucky you :) i am also frugal with my money but then most of my money goes to the food i am eating and i eat a lot especially when i am craving. Thank God for your unexpected money and i hope you can share it with us! hehehe :)

Yes, don't spend all your money and save it in the bank. You can need it for the future or to buy something.

How lucky you are to have an unexpected wealth, Toni! Pahingi nga ! In our desire to be able to save, once we have kept our money at the bank, we make it a point that we never get to withdraw them anymore , so it could accumulate and gets bigger. In my desire sometimes, not to ever withdraw money anymore and just stay within my allowance or when i'm nearly broke , i would bring some biscuits , packets of powdered juice and most of all bring to the office some left-overs from dinner the night before. Though it's a bit of sacrifice, i know that i will reap the reward someday when my savings have accumulated. Just like you, i am frugal too. Kuripot ika nga?

I completely understand where you are coming from. As of right now I'm completely broke. lol That's why I'm on Mylot right now. It is amazing how fast the month goes and the money as well. I'm glad that your uncle is sending you money. Surprises like that are always nice when they come. Yes and it is a great thing to be frugal with the resources we have. This month I didn't do so well with that because I wanted to get some new outfits and buy things I haven't in awhile. It was alright as I'm not able to do things like this often, but it has lead me to be tight on money until the next check comes. I will be happy when it gets here.

Hmmmmm.. Unexpected money. Thank God for that! :) Good for you, you'll be receiving money. :) I hope to receive some money too, soon. :)

Good for you that: You save money in the bank Money is coming your way You are frugal :)
