I am both good and bad with money... I am good at saving, but I spend a lot of money on stupid little things like dinners, food, and snacks. But I almost never buy really expensive things, so in that sense I am good at saving money. Are you good at saving money? And how do you work at saving more money??
Are you good with money?

Yes, i am very good with money. You have to be these days. Things cost more and more money every month, and you dont get a pay raise to go along with the added cost to life. So you have to be good and making your money count.
I had a boss when I was 18 or 19 that taught me a lot about saving and investing my money. And it has payed off. I have tried to teach my brothers, but they dont want to listen to me. They listen to their friends, who have nothing and are doing nothing with their lives. You have to start young with your money.

I'm good at being frugal and stretching a dollar...buying things on sale and waiting patiently. I don't like to go out to expensive dinners much, but have to because my GF likes to. Overall, I am pretty wise with money, but I've made a few poor investments that killed me in stocks and a house.

I am good at saving money. My partner is the impulse buyer..I tell him wait a week and if he still wants it as bad then buy it.

Yes, very. I'm really good about not over-spending or buying needless things that will never be used or spending ridiculous amounts on something. I could be a bank! Lol. In a way, I could be less tight about it. Lol. I tend to always think "well, I don't NEED it, so I won't get it," then I might end up really needing it or it ends up being something I definitely could have got more than my $'s worth of & should've just gotten it. I do work at saving money, but I'm slow about it too. I can save for a very long time without touching it though! I always want to save for special occasions like birthdays or something like that.

I'm getting much better with it, but still not as good as I'd like to be with it

Yes and no!

I am good at saving money but I also tend to spend money on impulse - like when I see a toy I like on EF!

I'm the same way as you. For instance, my boyfriend and I have gone to a diner 3 nights this week when we got out of work because we didn't go food shopping. Don't get me wrong, the food was delish, but it's definitely more money than I would like liked to spend.

Generally, yes. Sometimes I make rash decisions (like recently..ugh) and pay for it. But I rarely spend money other than food, gas, and bills.
