The most "bang" for your buck

In Your Money or Your Life, the authors ask the reader to consider the subjective returns they receive on their spending. As part of a program which results in financial independence, they recommend eliminating as many low-return expenses as possible.
I have found this technique to be highly effective, not only for allowing me to live beneath my means, but also to gain maximum enjoyment from the money I spend.
I recommend this book to anyone interested in becoming more conscious of the true value of money, as well as achieving financial independence.

Buying a book won't help you save money.
I've always been a good saver, to save you need a goal. When I was a kid I'd spend a year saving for a new computer. Now I'm saving for a house.
I don't understand why people spend all their money. My friends spend it all because they can. They'll buy a load of shit and end up giving it away or not using it.
They have a "I'll win the lottery one day" attitude and spend half the time complaining they have no money. The only definition I can think for that attitude is "dumb". 
Money makes money too, once you've saved enough you get a good income in interest. I get $80 a month just in interest.
