Saving for my own home is hard
I started saving money to buy a house. I’m on a 3 year plan that will hopefully end with me making a down payment and paying closing costs. Right now I’m saving very little and as my bills are paid off, that money is getting redirected to my savings. Now that I’ve made this a plan it seems like something is always coming up to snatch my hard earned cash. If it’s not my car then it’s something like needing new boots or a new coat. I don’t have a habit like e-cigarettes or online gambling anymore.
I’ve started putting my house fund into a savings account that I don’t have easy access to. This way I won’t be tempted to take cash out and buy stuff that I really don’t need. Now I just have to apply this logic to my other accounts and then I’ll be ok.
