Money - Are you a spender or a saver?

Are you the type that spends money as soon as you get it or the type that always has money saved up? With my sister she spends all of her wage on things such as clothes and concerts within a week of getting it. So she never really has any money unless she got paid within the last week. Me however, I always have money because I am always saving up for something or just saving the money knowing that I will want something soon anyway. It just seems silly to spend every penny you have as soon as you get it. Knowing that anytime you want you can just order a pizza delivery or go to the cinema with your mates is great, must be pretty awful having to turn down going out with your mates because you don't have any money.

So are you the type that spends or saves?

spend some, save some.
i had 12,500 in my bank at the end of january - end of last month it was still above 12,000 which isn't too bad imo, but yeah i've had wages go in ontop of that and it's still come down but ahwell.
if i sees omething i want, then i'll get it but i won't just get random things. but now i have my car i do buy more random things so idk

i'm both

I don't really have huge amounts of money unless I ask for it or want something, the most I have on a daily basis is about 5 - 10 quid xD

I know what you mean. A lot of people just spend money for the sake of it when they have it. Just because you have money doesn't mean you need to go out and look for things to buy.

saverrr

im 15, so can't work. But i do work on-line, i save at lease 200$ before spending or withdrawing to the bank :P

I tend to save any money that i get, but if theres somethin i want n i have enough money then im a spender!

Definitely a saver. I really don't spend much to be honest, but I do have sudden bursts where I just buy a bunch of stuff every now and then.

i don't mind spending small amounts but i've always got to save when i have a large amount
i half my money, save half spend the other and the remaining from that i'll save too

Saver.
I don't really buy anything so it all just goes into the bank for when I really need it.

Im a bit of both, I spend it all but keep £20 for emergencies like if I get invited out etc :P

Spender .. I'm always is debt with my sister. D: shes made a debt book were i need to sign it with the day i will give it back. Lmfao.

Kinda both. Save a bit but spend a little now and then ;)

both, like i've been saving up since my birthday and i'm going to blow it all tomorrow lol

and i'm one of those people who if they have money in there pocket or wallet, i'll spend it. so normally i only take as much as i need

Same here, I always save up loads then blow it all. But that means that 99% of the time I always have money saved unless you caught me on a day that I have just gone out and bought something expensive.

Also what is your sig and avatar all about, you are male right? (going by your profile details). :P

defos a spender, i spend it all on nights out, clothes, football matches, gambling, food...

spender, i hate saving.

I am a saver. :)

i can't save

i'm gonna be homeless

A saver

Save and spend on something when I really want something.

I am probably a saver, but never save to what I want and end up spending it all.

i am totally a spender

spend spend spend. If I have money in my purse and I walk past a shop I'll go in just because there is always something I'll want haha

I just got depressed reading the first page the this... I sure i'd be suicidal if i read everyone's reply. You all seem to be so safe with money?

I'm a spender. But quite extreme. I spend my monthly wages in a week. then for the next three weeks borrow hundreds of pounds to continue spending (work is at least a tenner a day and then socialising ie. drink!)

Normally in a month i spend between 1,200 to 2,000 a month. My sister and parents have now cut me off. They're so assured i'm on drugs... when i'm not. I just can't handle money. I drink it all!

i try to save but then give up and spend spend spend.

I save my money where others would call me crazy to but then I make sporadic purchases such as my iPad where I decided I wanted it on one day :P

It depends. I usually try to save my money, but sometimes it just isn't possible. I'm not really the kind of person who believes that buying something will make you feel better if you're in a low period. I mostly feel guilty or ashamed of myself if I've bought a luxary buy which I personally know I don't really need.

I used to spend whatever money I got straight away on junk.. but since i'm being made to buy more of my own stuff, I save a lot more and well appreciate money more :)
