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

This is good advice, as it gives saving (and your long-term goals) the priority they should have, rather than putting them behind a latte, a dvd, and any number of other insignificant things that you might spend your money on in a month.
