Spender or Saver?

[Huntress 94]

Spender.....I love to spend, I LIVE to spend. It's addicting. I can only save money when it's something Jeep related.

[DragonKing235 198]

well like to do both save and spend 

[Celli 4,339]

A little of both. I tend to spend money when I don't need to, but I'll save if I want to buy something nice, or if I need something important.

[catnet 9,359]

I'm usually much more of a saver; most of my games and devices are preowned, and I don't treat myself to fancy meals or nights out or anything. I rarely get new clothes either, and when I do, they're often very basic and cheap... aside from maybe electricity bills, my lifestyle doesn't really use up a lot of money.

[Hocus Pocus 636]

I'm a cheap, greedy, money-hoarding tightwad saver...yeah, let's go with "saver"

[InactiveHooves 256]

Under normal conditions I like to save money! I don't like spending it on things I don't need. 

[Empty Room 512]

Right now, I'm a saver. I've got my eyes set on a new music interface that costs £72.00.

Definitely saver. Being anti-consumerist in ideology, I'm very stingy when it comes to spending money on frivolous crap and I get no sense of pride from owning stuff in itself.

 

For me, it makes more sense to be a member of a company like Zipcar than to own a car that does nothing but sit in the garage and slowly rust for most of its life.

I would say I'm a saver. I save up my money for something important until I have enough to get it or in case there's an emergency.

100% saver, I almost never spend money in a year (except for school and gifts).

[SombrasCourtMusician 55]

I occasionally splurge on cheap things (market stuffs, special ingredients for dinner, etc), but for the most part I save for what I want. My last major purchase took about a year and a half's worth of savings. (7 string extended scale guitar with active pups)

[Ricebug 555]

I usually always spend my money, but recently there has nothing I have wanted or needed so I just saved it but I am broke now giving it to my parents...Oh well :3

[JonasDarkmane 19,788]

I am pretty much both. Sometimes I feel like spending, but otherwise I save up. 

[Notomi 66]

I'm afraid of spending money ;-; so am a saver.

[Admiral Regulus 2,769]

I'm generally a cheap bastard. So... yeah, I'm a saver.

 

If anyone's curious, I calculated my total expenses for the entire past year, which includes everything (rent, food, gas, utility bills, insurance, university tuition, etc, as well as one-time purchases like clothes, computer upgrades, and car maintenance). Based on that, on average, my cost of living is $2,000 per month. Of that, roughly $800 per month goes to books, tuition, and other fees.

 

If I wasn't going to school, I would only need to make $7.44 per hour (40 hours a week, 4 weeks a month) in order to support myself based on my current habits. If I had to live off of minimum wage, I could almost certainly make it work.

I'm more of a saver for two reasons:

• There really aren't a lot of things I want badly enough to actually try to buy that are within my price range.
• I often forget that I have money to buy stuff with.

I tend to save money whenever I receive my paycheck. I used to be a huge spender, but now I realize how important it is to save up money for something you truely want. Right now I'm saving up for my own car and I need money to pay college tuition.

[galaxysquid 2,122]

For myself, I have a hard time saving money. I'm leaning more towards a spender, but if I really want something, I'll save up for it. :3

[Celeryjack 71]

I save half of my salary and spend the rest... so 50/50?

[LittleMac 3,085]

I save my money...mainly cuz I don't know what to spend it on...

[ThatOneComrade 1,091]

I don't think I'm a saver as much as I can't find anything I really want to buy. I mean, I buy like one cheap thing every couple months.

[VictiniStar101 214]

I would classify myself as a little bit of both, if I want to buy something that requires me saving up money, then I'll save it, otherwise I will probably spend it.  I do try to find some sort of excuse to save up money though, I don't want to feel like I'm wasting my money.

[MLPFanatic34 3,234]

I'm honestly a bit of both, I love spending money and buying things I want, but I also save my money too.

[Magic Note 2,750]

I'm both a spender and a saver, depending on my mood. If there's something I like, I'll spend it. If I want to save money, i'll save it.

[PastelBread 147]

I am both. I save a lot, but then I look at how much I have saved. Once I see how much I have, I ration out how much I can spend at one given time without making too much of a dent in my money I have. I want to make sure I still have a lot left.
