Money matters, Dont change money at exchange rate counters-most of it will go to paying for service fees. Use the ATM instead, but sparingly, to avoid multiple international bank fees.

In my case, I don't necessarily spend too much. I follow certain budgeting methods still. I really discipline myself that I should be saving for my future.

ATM are great when you are travelling. When I began going abroad I made the mistake of using traveller's cheques. These often had high bank charges. People from the USA are lucky. I like to get many $1 notes when I travel in cheap country. They bring a smile anywhere.

I use a debit card that does not charge a fee, so I get cash at market rate with no fees.
