what's the reason for you guys saving money?

i know you guys work hard for your money and you wanna save up for the future down the road. But gosh, this takes so much discipline. lol

I'd rather spend all the money i make and not have a dime $0 cause i value life experiences > security. Points of view?

You're assuming you can't do both.. I consider myself to have had plenty of great life experiences with family, friends, and cars, but I still save up and plan for the future.

Also, a lot of experiences, dare I say the most meaning full ones, require restraint.
Eg. you restrain yourself in practicing an instrument for hours a day, but only so that you can experience the richer freedom of musical creativity.
you restrain yourself in a monogamous relationship, but only so that you can experience a rich fulfilling relationship
you restrain yourself from being promiscuous with your time and money so that you can experience the deeper freedom of a family and a future..


.. why did i write so much.....


bet it all on black! YOLO!

I rather save up for a home and have my own pot to piss in rather than pay rent forever.

lol after making getting married raising family in a 1 bedroom apartment, you make another post related to money..

I think you need to get your finances straight first...

Are you trying to take Timpo's crown for the most useless posts started??

RS should put a rule in place where trolls are only allowed to post one troll thread per week.

Stop tithing to the church and start a "rainy day" savings account.


Or, start a cult/religion and take everyone else's 10%.


Stupid answer to a stupid question.......... what can I say?



Didn't even address the question in the thread title, LOL.

I honestly don't think he's a troll....he's just so sadly oblivious that it's not even funny.

Honestly though, you're wasting the internet so for anymore questions please use on of the following:

1) Kids Help Phone (1-800-668-6868) is Canada's only free, national, bilingual, confidential and anonymous, 24-hour telephone and online counselling service for children. Your lack of knowledge, experience and common sense would put you at about child's level so don't hesitate to call.

2) If you go to Shaw's webpage, and click on tech. support, you will have an option to chat with a live person. These people are there to help you with tech problems but I'm sure you could try your luck at asking them questions about your life's problems and woes.

Best of luck man!

They key to saving is make it auto. I set up through my online banking that every 2 weeks it will take say $500 for savings, $400 for RRSRP $400 aside to another acct for egergency funds $1000 goes to mortatge.....

That one once you get paid you don't even see the money since it already got deposit into different acct so you can use what's left.

Holy shit, not many people here make 60k after tax just for savings/mortgage...especially not with money left over to feed themselves!

But I definitely agree, auto movement of funds helps huge.

I agree to a certain extent until you have to save for survival and living on your own. Do you really want to rent or live with your parents for the rest of your life? People save to get what they want in life.

But yes, I do agree. I rather enjoy my life to the fullest at one point, then commit to something, save, and realized i lost a good part of my youth.

I know I'm not gonna get shit from mine... why the fuck are other's unfortunates so funny to you? You were raised with everything handed to you and expect a stash of cash at your parents death bed?

How about you save money first and then experience life after?

Work hard, get some job and financial security. Then get that Ferrari or take vacations around the world and all that.
