Hi I've been doing this for a while and thought I'd share it with you..

Every day I put 10% of the money I have in my current account into my savings account or pay it off a bill..

On payday I have £600 odd and don't miss the £60 going one little bit, same as when I have £100 left and I pay £10, as it's always in proportion I feel it's not so hard :)

You may want to do it a 10% a week, or 1% a day, or not at all! But thought I'd chip in with what I do :)

Thanks for reading
