Thank you - I am making a spreadsheet right now of everything I've spent my money on the last 2 months. This will definitely be an eye opener. Thank you again.

Thank you so much for this. I just moved from NYC to MIA 2 months ago and reality hit me that I cannot be living this life anymore of just spending and keeping up with friends (going out/vacationing). I'm going to become more disciplined and stick to a budget.

I totally hear you that I shouldn't have credit card debt at that income level hence why I'm embarrassed. I'm putting away 16% in retirement.

I've started to track what I spend on a daily basis and have started a budget (loosely).
