  • I would like to know this too ;).
    I want to be a good saver, but I find it difficult to control my temptation to spend :o .

    I owe £1,247 more than I have in savings :( .

    If you look at a lot of this site, there are products which are encouraging you to purchase items, maybe the cheapest around, yes, but are you really
    'money saving'... im not so sure.
    Perhaps its the wrong choice of words for a lot of what this site puts before you
    Unless you are investing in something for a financial return, then you are moneywasting, not money making.

    Why is this so hard to fathom ? ???

    What is money for then?
  • swimming in?
    A shadowy flight into the dangerous world of a man who does not exist.

    A young loner on a crusade to champion the cause of the innocent,
    the helpless, the powerless, in a world of criminals who operate above the law.

    money is for making money...

    Why have one house when you can have 3, why have one sportscar when you can have 3.. its that principle really.

    If that wasn't important, neither would david beckham be. You may not admire the guy, but you would happily let me pass you his bank balance.

    So, if I buy three sports cars then, is that money making or money saving?
