If you are constantly broke, is it because you want to be? I used to have a hard time saving money. I could always find something to spend money on. I had a perpetual hole in my pocket. I would always say to myself, "The shopping bug has bit me."
Spending too much actually is a sickness. It is a habit of cutting your own legs out from underneath you. You let yourself be continually defeated because it is almost like you enjoy it. It is masochistic. Why do you enjoy hurting yourself? Do you think you deserve to be hurting?
God just gave me an epiphany, saving is the same as getting paid. "A penny saved is a penny earned." If you want to have money for a long time, hold on to the money that you have and don't spend it. Buy food sometimes, but beyond that, us Americans buy way too much. If you have everything you need, why do you keep buying more? This can go for food too? We stock up on tons of food and then half of it spoils before we eat it. The better manager you are of your money, the happier you will be.
God bless. :)
