Myself. fukk 12(1)!
I wouldn't say I'm addicted, I'm just really good at it. My husband and I have short-, mid- and long-term goals we'd like to achieve with as little debt as possible, so we are aggressive with saving and investing.

Our long-term goal is to own 1000+ acres of land in the States and other countries.

When you stop paying a monthly payment to the gym and buy a squat rack and barbell you can shop at the most basic of stores and buy the cheapest of clothes and not look like a bum since those cheap shirts and pants fit you better.


That's the next step for me. I want to turn my garage into an actual fitness center for me and my wife.

Once I get past 5K, I just keep saving until I hit another 5 and keep it going.

Might have something to do with me watching and organizing from a visual perspective, but once I got it, It's like I hoard it and don't want to spend it. Not that I find stupid things to spend it on or would go without just to have it, but I just like being able to watch it and map out things I plan on doing with it, while knowing that I got it as opposed to having to generate/hustle for it.

The only thing I regret in my youth was having all that money without knowledge of what to invest it on and how to invest it. So much wasted baksheesh.​

Yes, I've always been that way. I have no idea why. No one else in my family is like this, so I don't know where I get it from.

I do get conflicted sometimes though, since I had a relative who was big on saving money and then he died relatively early without any prior warning, so there was always that thought of "Damn, he was saving the money for nothing".

Man I don’t.

I got nieces and nephews.

So with that die early worry, I’m trying leave my family with wealth.

My only concern is about teaching them how to money manage, so that they don’t piss it off.

How you gonna ROFL with a hollow back?
I wish I was, me and my wife both are fukking terrible at it, like I think I have a fukking addiction to Spending money as soon as it comes in! My brother always says that if I won the lotto for 10 million, I would buy an 11 million dollar house. I am a pro at moving money around when I go in the red, but it always ends up piling up and I always have to figure something else to hustle like twice a year, just to get up from being underwater. I have really considered going to a spending addiction support group, if they have that.
