[quote=Anonymous]OP here. I wasn't necessarily a big spender but I wasn't someone who watched where every dollar went either. It wasn't until post divorce when my standard of living completely changed, moved to a small apartment, sold my new car for a used one, started cooking once a week and freezing food, bought a guitar and learned to play instead of going out with friends and drink etc that I started saving a lot. And then I woke up today and saw that $101k, and I was like wow how can I save even more.

I enjoy lifting weight and honestly that's enough fun for me at this point. I hang out less and less with my guy friends because all they do is drink every weekend and I don't even drink. Hey at least I can now learn to play my favorite songs with my new found hobby while I grow my financial assets. And learning the guitar at 43 is so hard, but it's fun.

I am not cheap when it comes to my daughter though. I have a separate account just for her in case she asks for things I didn't plan for. She is great kid with good grades and very polite and respectful. I really love her. So I am not going to find savings when it comes to her.[/quote]
