I am Trai. I am a teacher and I make $32,500 a year. Every month I make $2,225 and every two weeks I make $1,112. I pay $550 for my house, $100 for my clothes, $100 for my food and $200 for my entertainment. That leaves me with $1,275 for my saving and for pocket money. I put $1,000 in the bank and $275 for pocket money.
Today someone gave me the opportunity to get a house or car upgrade but I turned it down because I don’t really want to spend more money than I have to and I am not sure how the rest of my life will go.
Also I am kind of jealous but happy that one of my friends hit the lottery. One of my friends lost there job but found a new one that pays the same amount of money her old job did. One of my friends got married; one had to put his bicycle in the shop, one is moving into his parent’s basement and one got a 20% stock drop.
All in All, I think I did well this week and made the best decision for my pockets.

ReplyDeletei knoe thats right... you got money and you got a job just do good and stick with it. everything is fine and good with your life.. YOU GO BOY.
ReplyDeletehello trai. it is very wize of you to save your money. i would do the exact same thing. i would suggest you just move into a town home. its cheaper, and you save more. judging by the amount you spend on your home, you must live in a bigger home. you should purhaps get a smaller place, that way you'd have more cash.
ReplyDeletesup trai um yah i like the aprtment but really $100 for food?? :) :)
ReplyDeleteits always good to save money but why spend more money on entertainment then food
ReplyDeletehey trai. i think it was smart to put $275 in your pocket because talib put $1,000 in the bank and had $930.76 in his pocket, then his luxury car is in the shop and he has to take the bus. If u did take that upgrade than things might have been worse for you
