    I'd really spent alot this month, knowing that my one bank account is about to be empty, I can't really help myself to but the things i wanted.

    What do you think is the best way to save money?

    I'll tell you straight up that if you want to have more money then you have to spend less than you make. If you make 300 dollars a week, then only spend 150 dollars a week. You might say, "but what about bills, car payments, blah blah." Well, nobody forced you to get a car, nobody forced you to get an apartment. We only spend money on what we choose to spend money on. You could pitch a tent at the park, eat berries and catch fish, and ride a bicycle to work.

    The point is, how are you going to get to a million dollars if you can't get to 5,000? or 20,000? It's not how much money you make. The key is how much money you save, how much money you invest, and how much you can make out of what you have right now.

    Have a separate account that money is automatically paid into... deducted from your pay or whatever... without you ever having to do it... and DO NOT touch the money in this account until you have enough for whatever you were saving for! Then, start again for the next thing.

    Never spend anything! Thus you can save a lot. Remember the proverb "Money saved is money earned";)

    When you get money, instantly put it in savings. I use ING Direct and get a huge return on interest. Also if your willing to not spend the money for a while, put it in a two year CD and watch your savings grow. If your a patient person, you'll be surprised how much more you can make, and it doesn't even require work.

    Don't spend on computer games. A lot of kids are wasting their money on this stuff.

    Tips:
    1. don't buy every e-book in the forum
    2. work on stumble, digg, and seo as instead of google adwords
    3. Use free tools and stop wasting money that you don't need to spend.

    Develop a habit of setting aside a certain percentage of your income in a month.

    In addition, save every Adsense penny you gain for the rainy days.

    well motivate youself and push yourself by making a goal that you will indeed build what you've spent foolishly or for good by this and this day.

    then work harder and balance income and outcome from then and save all you got.

    and if you must spend, spend on something wisely so it'll be good investment or what is really required.

    Ask yourself: is what you want required or a neccessary
    neccessary = you dont need it

    Investment sounds good, i'm also thinking other investment program aside from from online gigs. I mean, store or shops, or anything that people here in Philippines would definitely bite.

    Just want to ask what are the most profitable market there in US and UK?
