I save because I want to have a good life in the future and a sustainable life now. I think if you can't afford to save, you can't afford your lifestyle. We save long-term for retirement and short-term for fun activities.
I am motivated to save by the feeling that I get when I set a goal or a target, change my habits even just a little to be able to squirrel extra funds away, and then watch as I get closer and closer to the goal!
I am saving money to help pay off debt and alleviate some stress. I am also saving for a trip this fall! In the past I have taken trips whether I had the money or not (hence, the debt!). I want to go on this trip with everything already paid for!
you should NOT have to clean your vagina it cleans it self if you have odor then change your diet and wash better while you shower if there is anything else going on then you should see a Dr. The vagina has its own Ph and diet can affect it as well as not washing or using the bathroom after sex. no need for the vagina washes or scented coverups it just a waste of money.
wash well ,keep your clothes loose,wear cotton undergarments, keep it dry and change your diet. stop trying to make it smell pretty
I motivate myself to save by remembering that I control how close or how far away I am from living my dreams: travel, self-employed, and spending time with family.
I am currently not saving, I know how important an emergency fund is but I would rather push ever dollar toward paying off my debt. I am going to start with a small amount though, even just $20 a month towards my savings.
I am motivated to save because we don't need what every else thinks is a "need" I love that we can actually save money because we have little debt. We save but we also enjoy splurging on something nice every once in awhile. I hope the medical bills stay away and that we can continue to be able to save.
I buy apps that have features that I can't get freely. If the price is reasonable I don't mind supporting the developer. If I feel that the developer's model for free vs premium is manipulative, I will lot buy it. For example, if the only reason to pay is to not see ads, I won't buy. I also don't buy if the free version is purposefully unusable (missing key features.) Premium features need to be above and beyond not necessary for core functionality. I will however buy apps I might normally not buy when they are on sale on the market or at amazon.
I am motivated to save because I want to remain independent and self-sufficient. I have been slowly putting in a home orchard so that I can cut down on our food bill.
Both short-term goals and long-term goals provide motivation for me to save. I set short-term goals like vacation by creating a budget and then saving an amount each month so that I have the money I need to purchase airline tickets or pay for hotel reservations. Long-term goals like my children's education provide all the motivation I need to ensure they will have the funds needed for college costs.
I am motivated to save by the fact that my kids are getting older and closer and closer to college age (and driving age). We are getting a late start on saving to prepare for these events, but any savings at all will help us prepare for these big events.
I save all the extra money at the end of the month with the knowledge that my contracted positions could end any time, and then what? I seem to have a hard time finding jobs, so I hold on to the ones I have and save all the extra money at the end of the month. Besides, running out of money means moving back in with my parents. This has already happened once. No thanks.
I get motivated to save when I have a month with no xtra expenses and my credit card bill is low. This gives me a lift and it makes me feel that if I start saving a little I can get ahead.
Thanks for the great comments, "GT"! A socket set was actually on my list, as was the vice grip. However, it was starting to look like a list of 100 things so had to make some cuts. Those were excellent suggestions, though. Thank you for writing!
Hmmm.. not all of these apply for every host. For example, it would kind of tick me off if a house guest bought their own food and made their own meals. I view meals as communal, and I pride myself on my cooking.
Same with the personal space. If you are coming to visit, you're coming to visit. Don't just use my house as a hotel and then see the sights without me. I would feel very used.

Really interesting but is that even possible???

I save for my family. I never want to know what it is like to go to the fridge or pantry and see that there is nothing to eat.

Let's not get started on taxes...

I'm so glad you enjoyed the book, Lorie!
What an inspiring story. Thanks for sharing!

It's best to know each other and what to expect.
Have you tried Hanging with Friends?

It's a mindset as well. Work for wages or work for yourself.
