[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are doing nothing for yourself right now, try this:

- $30 on coffee (5 or 6 times, + a bagel muffin to go with it occasionally)
- $50-$100 on beauty/relaxation (this could be a nice haircut, a pedi, some new make-up, a massage, a trip to SpaWorld, a manicure, a new scent)
- Read one book a month. Read outside if it's nice. 
- Watch one movie or get into a new tv series that you like.

One thing that is true for me is that the little things do count. If I can stock the house with my favorite soda, sparkling water bottles to go, coffee, and wine that I like, and if I can order some take-out that I love instead of forcing myself to cook, I feel good. It's easy. It's enjoyable. It makes drudgery feel like a break.

If you can afford it, occasionally (like, every few months) spend money on stuff you want that you normally don't buy (a new jacket, a nicer dinner with friends, an iPad, whatever).

$1500 is insane. [/quote]

I'd love to spend $30 a month on coffee.  Or $100 on a massage.  But there is no money to spend on that.

I do read and managed to get 25 books read this summer.
