Hey everyone!

Im Savio..Im 21, in college..hoping to be a Doctor someday.

I'm a Internet addict, I cant get enough of flash games, rss feeds and social networking sites.

Most of the time I browse using my smart phone. (I luv Opera Mini.)

Hi! Hello! Howdy!

My name is Thao. I live in (northern) California. I'm currently a student and so I'm always broke. Hehe.

I've been signing my posts everywhere with a J~ forever! Makes me recall that ancient scifi film about the planet on the other side of the sun where everything was backwards???? Can't recall the exact title....

Anyway, I also came here via Zen Habits and I came here to win $20 but if that doesn't happen I certainly got more than my moneys worth *grin*in good advice by a warm group of people. I'm a late 40's divorced woman, no children, I work from home as a freight broker. I have been financially responsible and have lived modestly for the last decade after a rough time with student loans when I was younger. I have just recently been struggling again after loosing a job and am trying to be more proactive so I dont repeat past mistakes.

J~

Wow, I'm older than dirt, but where have I been? If i'd have found this site sooner I might indeed already be living larger on a smaller budget. I can see I need to set aside some time with my Latte in the morning and read thru some of these forum topics. Haven't seen one yet that wouldn't apply to me. Glad already to be climbing aboard.

Ciao everyone,

My name is Olga! I am an Aries I enjoy philosophy (no, really, I do! lol). Ask me about Dostoevsky!

Anyway, I have been trying to post on the forum and how in the hell do you do that? I seen to be computer challenged, I have been on this site all last night, and this morning and I still cannot figure it out! I am just about ready to pull my hair out.

Thanks~

Hi all,

I'm Kym, from Melbourne, Australia (where it's way too hot right now!) At the moment I'm a technical writer, but someday I want to return to education. I used to teach programming, but lack of student interest meant the uni department got rid of 2/3 of their IT staff.

I'm discovering a new passion for languages, trying to garden organically, and dreaming of reviving my interest in a range of musical instruments. I love learning anything, dabble in all kinds of hobbies, have two adorable cats and enjoy living on the eastern outskirts of town. This year I want to focus on being more frugal and organised with all my resources (time, energy and money).

Hi!

I'm a disabled single mother trying to do better than just making ends meet on a mix of a tiny pension and fiction writing. Needless to say, this takes serious thought.

I'm here because of Zen Habits, but I've spent the last hour reading posts. It's interesting here.

I've been posting here for a while but I haven't posted to this thread! It's beyond time.

I'm here from Zen Habits and The Digerati Life. I'm a college sophomore, and I'm focused on saving as much as possible. In my spare time I like to cook, read, and hang out with my friends. I'm so glad I joined - everyone's a great bunch around here

Hi, I'm a new member. I came here from Zen Habits, as well. Everyone should check out ZH, by the way.

Just wanted to say hi.
