I'm trying to save some money to maybe buy a new Tv some day.
Both of my sets are like 20 years oldblushbut they work great.
I also like to save some money be course you never know if you need to move suddenly or have to have some kind of doctor visit.
You just never know.
So do you like having a little nest ache or are you saving up for something special?

I think you mean nest egg. I think that saving is important for the sake of saving so whenever possible money should be set aside even when there is not a special reason or goal for saving.

I'm saving up for maternity leave, my husband is saving up for a new TV. I think it's good to always have a little stash of money set aside for those emergencies like doctor visits and the like. You just never know when something will go wrong.


myLot reputation of 98/100. missybear (2185)   ranked 195 out of 19,456 in questions & answers  8 months ago

You right, that's why i try to put a little money away each payday.
It doesn't always work though.

Don't I know it! Seems like as soon as you are making good progress something happens and sets you back a few steps. I have faith though. I'm just going to keep working hard and have the trust that it will pay off in the long run.

Yes I am saving for a reason.Here our country education is expensive and getting your married to a decent guy too is a very expensive affair as we have to give a lot of cash,gold and the other things to the groom.I am saving for both as I have a daughter who is studying well.


myLot reputation of 98/100. missybear (2185)   ranked 195 out of 19,456 in questions & answers  8 months ago

I'm sure it's all gonna be worth every penny at the end.

I have a savings account that is for lifes little emergencies but my focus for the money I make working online is so that we can have some kind of vacation come the first part of next year. I have to wait til then for two reasons, 1. My hours were cut at work so things are tight right now and I don't know how long I will be cut back, and 2. I have already had to use my vacation time and it doesn't start again til December but I will be getting two weeks instead of one starting this year! December 29th is also my husband and mines ten year wedding anniversary! Got a lot to look forward to and save up for! God Bless!

Hi there Missy Bear. I do save money, and this phenomenon only increased after i met my girlfriend, not because she or i am a cheapskate but because we have many plans together and for their accomplishment we need money.

We have been to Greece together last year in the summer vacation for a 10 day trip (by bus) and 7 days at a hotel on Olympic Beach. It was my first time out of my country and i was really happy that i could do this with the person that i love.

I agree that it is always good to save some money because you never know when and why you need them.

When i was single, i liked saving money because i liked to treat myself from time to time with various things - like improvements for my computer, or a special kind of food.

I save my money to either buy something I may want later on or to use the money to replace something lost or broken.

Right now my reason for savings would be to just have some security. We were in a situation recently and had very little savings to rely on. I don't want to do without in my regular routine just to save but want to be disiplined enough to put some away each week. Small steps and I know it will grow.

That's why I like to have a little stash, you never know when some kinda emergency pops up.

Yeah I would like to buy a house at some point in time and move out of my hometown but I know that's still going to take me a while before I have enough money to do that. Other then that I don't really care about money. Maybe a new bass would be nice in the future but all will come in time.
