It is the only way that I can save consistently. If you don't set something aside for yourself, expenses will quickly eat up the rest of your money and you will remain broke. BTW, I learned this from The Richest Man in Babylon when I was young. I strongly recommend this book for anyone who is struggling with finances in any way.

Neil Hi
