I've easily spent $47 over the past 10 days on takeout lunches and dinners. It's not like there isn't food at home - it's just laziness. Not smart of me to do - but over the year, these lapses get corrected and I'm generally good :) Honestly though, do you think you would pay $3 for it, or go for that cup of coffee? I know what is the easier thing to do, and I have done that PLENTY of times, rueing the fact that I didn't show a little restraint. When I was 21, I got $20,000, and blew it - don't even know how I did it. I've had plenty of money come through my hands, and those times have been the ones that I've spent like crazy. Then when I've had no money (like you, selling stuff to get by), I realised that I needed to live within my means, and build wealth through accumulation - not lotto!

I would love to take up your offer, but guess what. I haven't got $47 between now and my next pay mid next month to pay for it! Thats the problem. I did learn alot from this though, things I have read in your newsletters, but listening to you say it was far better as i think it sank in more and is more motivating. I will be putting some of those things into practice where I can, unfortunately I have sold a lot of stuff just to make ends meet instead of to put against the priority debt. Maybe you can help us folks that don't have spare cash, nothing to sell, still have a family to raise, have dreams of a holiday in two years and no way of achieving it.

As a single mum I can sleep at night knowing I can afford to pay the mortgage, put savings aside for bills, go on a holiday this month, and still have plenty of money saved up for that new (2nd hand) car I'll be buying next year. And no more buying on credit for me unless I can pay it off the next month! You have changed our lives & I can never thank you enough :-) Cheers, Catherine Hi David

The only request I would have is the option to have 2 credit cards instead of just one - for example, i alternate between two credit cards in order to maximise the interest-free days on both, and improve my cash flow - so instead of having one large credit card balance to pay off each month, I pay off a smaller credit card balance each fortnight and never have to pay any interest. Cheers, Angela Hi David,

A lot of it I've put into practice and as a result I saved enough finance which I put into a home deposit, something I thought was out of my reach. Now I know that things are possible only if you are disciplined and committed to archeiving. I would like to thanking so much for the guidance you provided. On another note I was recommended to your simply budget sofware as a Money Mag' subscriber but have been experiencing difficulties in downloading it to my computer. Could you please provide some advice on how I should do that so that I can start using it. I am so desparate to install it as I would like to introduce the concept of budgetting to my husband and demonstrate to him that budgeting does work and if followed carefully can resolve his money problems. Thank you Lydia Gah-Bell Hi David,
