[quote=Anonymous]About $300k this year.

I have a cheap pre-paid phone ($7/mo) and mostly use skype to call family.  I have basic cable, but only because it makes my internet bill cheaper. Otherwise, I'd drop it.  I still have my 15 inch TV from college (many years ago) and don't feel like wasting money on a bigger TV.  I rarely eat out and try not to buy pre-packaged food at the grocery store unless I'm too lazy or too busy to cook.  I have never had a manicure or pedicure. I used to go to the spa for an occasional massage/facial.  However, I've decided it's a huge waste of money and no longer go.  A good chunk of my furniture was taken from my mother's and grandmother's houses.  I didn't feel like wasting money on new things.  I still have my 9 year old (fully paid for) car and plan on keeping it until it falls apart.  When I was in residency, my hospital provided free food.   I would go in on my days off and eat for free (and bring home a plate of food to last me another 1-2 meals.    I used to buy tons of story books. Now I stick with free books on my kindle.  I don't go to movie theaters anymore because I think ticket prices are crazy (plus, I'm sick of loud people at the theater and hate watching 30 minutes of ads before the movie starts).

Splurge:  I buy organic/non-gmo food when available.
