$800 a month?? Do you live under a bridge, ride a bicycle, have no cell phone, and eat nothing but Ramen noodles?
Lee79, Trucking in Tennessee, Jazz1 and 3 others Thank this. -
I don't save money on the road.
I spend money.
To make money, you must first spend it.
Seriously, to spend less money on the road on yourself. Turn off the phone, Hulu or Netflix or any other money sucking techy stuff.
Carry and make your own food. Drink water out of a tap.
Many ways to cut back.
Good luck. -
RedRover Thanks this.

Set your bank account to roll off $500 a month into savings. If you don't see it in checking you won't spend it.

Your bills are less than $800 a month. #### man you should have mega bucks saved up. Seen this problem and had it myself decade ago. Prooblem is you have no responsibility AND access to all your car at all the time. Open a (ING on line bank account) Then have you bank set up an automatic transfer of a set amount $2-300 a week. Its easy to save when it is done automatically before you have access to it. The benefit of using ING on line bank is. You do NOT have instant access to the cash. When you request a withdrawa it takes 3 days to arrive at your home. So you can' use it for b.s. spending. Try this and a year from now you owe me a steak dinner and drinks at capital grill, the chop house, or Ruth chris.
RedRover, tscottme and Metallica88 Thank this. -
