Parents, able to share how you save money? No savings investment plans. i been trying but i just don't seem to get it down. Despite writing or locking it aside
There are a lot of different ways for you to save money. First of all you should start with saving money on cutting expenses. When I was a student it helped me a lot to save some money for my future. Currently I am trying to find some spare money via loans for bad credit, you can read more about them here https://triceloans.ph/loans-for-bad-credit/ . It is easy for me because I can have money to spend for my hobbies, especially for anime and videogames. I am gonna have a kid in a few months and I already saved a lot of money for that purpose so I can do everything I want.

The good thing about this account is you get bonus interest rate if you DO NOT withdraw. So just to earn this extra bonus, I always tell myself that the money go in cannot come out. So far I only withdraw from that account once, which was to pay for the hospital bill. I don't even know how much is inside and I tell myself I don't want to see the balance until I get my house 4 years from now.

For me i will try not to use certain cards. I will open a few bank and each account are for different purpose.. Try to have some not accessible bank such as maybank , cimb , hsbc , ANZ ETC.. then wont be able to draw out easily ..
Ok thank you for the tips! i will keep a look out for these bank promos
at the moment I'm putting about 200-300 per month. baby bonus I'll split it too. so let's say I get 2k, 1k goes into savings and the other 1k I'll use to clear bills or take the kids out.
Bank card, I cut and throw. No bank book. Also I can't transfer money out from the bank. Urgent- life and death. if it means I must ask or borrow I'll do that. in a way forget that it's there.
Ahh. thanks for the tips. I shld try that method. But monthly you put aside? How much?
We put into same kind of education funds that pays not bad dividends once every few months I think..it's all managed by my independent wealth advisor
I have recently started saving. I put the money in the bank and I have thrown the card away. I also took a bank which is not accessible to me.
Any bank card or bank book with it? What if when really need it urgently? its also a nono?
As i cant save too, baby bonus goes to my husband. So i wont touch it.
