Something I may try

We are one income too well one person two incomes. I have a part time day job and do freelance work onlime.

I do the same. Usually have to use it but I try to save.

I have tried to do that, let it accumulate in paypal, but I end up needing it to help pay something.

I am saving what I earn online since I started writing online 5 years ago. What I have it's not a lot, but not very little either.

Why do you find it difficult to leave your online earnings in your paypal account? You should make a list of what you spend each month. Do it for two months. Write down what you *have* to spend, fixed costs like electricity, water, gas, etc., and what you spend on clothes, food, entertainment, etc. Then go through the list item by item and find out where you can spend less and save money. Maybe you can find a cheaper telephone company or something like that. Stop smoking?

I keep my money in paypal, my hubby in his bank account. We don't join the money together. But he saves a lot

I support you. I am also saving on my paypal, one day if I may be healthy enough to work outside I will use this money as allowance to eat and transport.

That sounds like a good idea. I try to do that too.

I think that it is a good idea. I am also planning to this.

I leave my savings in my paypal account, which I actually have 2 of. When I want to do a little online shopping, which I usually do about once a year, I tap into that account to pay for it. It means that I didn't have to actually use my credit card or any funds in our bank account. Its a nice plan B.

All my online earnings have gone into a high interest bearing savings account, except what I donate to charity each month. You'd be surprised at how quickly it grows!!!!

That's so neat, when I was earning more writing at different sites, I kept my money in paypal for Christmas shopping,.

I think that is a great idea. Every little bit helps.

Although you stay at home, you can do something to make money. For example, you can open an eshop on the net. If you are good at writing, you can write some stories as well. Wish you a suitable job as soon as possible.

You could also try the Acorn app or Stash. It is supposed to be painless investing.

I think that's a good idea - leave it in Paypal. What you've never had you shouldn't miss.

Saving what you earn online is a great way to start and you'll see it start to add up. I save mine and it always makes me feel good when my numbers go up each month when we get paid here.

I leave my online savings in Paypal and it's surprising how the small amounts accumulate into something larger. Good luck with trying to save. I know it isn't easy.

I think that would be a great idea , it can be emergency money also
