Hi there! I am literally saving money in the bank. Secondly, I controlled our expenses especially these days that we have an ongoing construction of our new house. I believe it really takes a woman to do that, well most of the time.

I record my expenses, i think thats an effective way so you can control your own personal and miscellaneous expenses. House rental, telephone, electric bills must be prioritize and save a little after every payroll period. Its hard because of the world crisis today, but i still got to manage my money. I am here into mylot to get additional income too. Happy mylotting!!

for saving my money in this recession time i have made some plans for myself, first i used to take a cab, but now i dont take no matter how long is the distance i travel it on my foot which has also increased my stamina, i have stopped using my mobile phone as much as i used it earlier, i have stopped planning hanging out with my friends so that there are no expenditures on them, i have sold my things which i didn't needed. and i have joint mylot for an extra income.
