So it’s Day 2 on my Mission to become a millionaire, and so far, I’m on my way! I got paid last night (woo) and have taken care of the bills for this check (I’ve created a great system that has really proven to work for me to make sure all bills are taken care of and on time, I love it!).

I know splurging on a big dinner because I have some money now is not going to help me on my way to becoming financially set and stable, so instead, maybe I’ll make dinner for my boyfriend, a special treat of some kind, then we’ll use our Free movie passes we got and go see a movie. That would make for a great night.

Lesson:

When you get the urge to splurge, don’t do it! Put half of what you would have spent on the splurge into savings and instead, only spend the other half. I mean, if you had it to spare on the splurge anyway, don’t you have it then to save instead?
