Money

Hey everybody today I wanted to talk about money, and the problems that go along with it.  From what I have been exposed to there are three different kinds of people when it comes to managing money.  There is the person who is "cheap" or "tight", the person with a hole in their pocket, and the person that does not mind spending money every now and then, but knows how to save it also.  Now in this situation, being a starving student has its advantages.  Meaning you don't really have that much money to spend, and what you do have goes to top ramen. 

In my opinion the third option is the best way to live.  If I was too tight with my money I would begin to wonder why I am saving it so much if I never plan to spend it.  If I was too loose with my money I would definitely be in a bad place.  If I ever had an emergency and needed cash I wouldn't have any because I spent every penny I had the minute I got it.  I believe you should save your money until you find something you really want or need.  If you save then you are prepared if you need emergency money, and you can also afford to treat yourself and others from time to time (which is perfectly okay).  Okay well that's all for now, I'm off to the freeway exit with my cardboard sign... no not really, there aren't enough people on the road right now...
