Yes, yes I do. Every month. Have managed this every month for the last 33 years.
As well as the Debt-free Wannabe board, have a look at the Old Style money saving board and learn a bit about thrift. And learn to Just Say No.No longer a spouse, or trailing, but MSE won't allow me to change my username...0 -
i used to get paid monthly, managed my money easily for 14 years lasted every month without borrowing or going into overdraft. Got made redundant, found another job and now get paid weekly, even easier to manage my money and remain in the black.
No i am not super rich or loaded, i am an average joe bloggs aged 53.0 -
