Oh, I still go out occassionally but it is never extravagant or frequent. It is truly pay cheque to pay cheque for this hombre. A few months ago I wasn't quite as diligent with my spending as I should've been and found myself with ten days until the next pay cheque and only ten bucks in my account
(not even enough to use an ATM. . . not to mention a $1000 accumulating visa bill). Thank you mom and dad for footing me a loan. Anyway, I think those are all important life lessons.
Not having enough money to eat really puts things in perspective, literally. Like I said previously, I try to pay myself every month to be able to do some things that I enjoy but if I have too much fun I'm likely going to starve for a bit hehe.
