I work for a non-profit and until 6 months ago, I didn’t have the resources to save anything. I was at $0 in savings. Thank God I have been able to start saving and investing this year and am starting to build up a nest egg.
And no, I don’t have cable (got rid off it 10 years ago), I don’t own a car, I don’t have a cell phone, and I even got rid of my online game account last year ($12 a month).
Some people just don’t make the money needed to save.
THANK YOU
Until about a month ago my husband and I had been without a regular income for over 3 years. We ate through everything we had saved because work was hard to find. We did what we could and what we had to do to keep the house and the electric going and our daughter fed and clothed. It's not easy, and it sure ain't fun.
