It's impossible to save nowadays. The only way to gain more wealth is to have greater source of income. Gone are the days where you can work an average job and save. Need to hustle or x2 your income with a partner or spouse.

I live in a big city, but I have invented a method I call "urban foraging". Basically I hunt and find 90% or more of my food. For example, the geese by lakes in town are ridiculously easy prey, for some reason this man coming at them with a bat doesn't trigger any survival instinct within them (kek). You can also find lots of berries in the spring and summer but some WILL give you diarrhea. Obviously people's gardens are fair game too. I'm a pharmacist, I make $140k a year but I'm saving so much by not having to pay for food, it's incredible and I get to get back to primal roots. Anyway, hope this helps.

Step 1: Go through a few months of bank statements, catalog what you spend your money on.
Step 2: Organise these transactions into categories. Bills, savings, investments, food, luxuries, whatever seems right.
Step 3: Find ways to cut all of them down. Decide what is really necessary, and make decisions as to which you absolutely cannot get rid of or downsize.
Step 4: Do it.

There you go OP.

less eating out
more tap water, less other beverages, less meat, more rice/beans/pasta/bread
look for a cheaper place to live that's closer to work
unsubscribe from shit you don't actually use
get a credit card with generic cash back on every purchase (1.5-2%)
pay every credit card statement in full, never pay interest
if you need a car get a used honda/toyota shitbox instead of anything expensive

that's usually most of the money you can save for most people

I was a huge pothead when trying to conceive my first two kids. It was impossible. Had to have my sperm washed and turkey basted up my wife’s snatch. Both kids are fine. I am a born again Christian now and quit pot for good, and after like six months clean my wife and I conceived naturally on accident. So yeah weed definitely fucks with your fertility.

I am spiritually jewish and do not like paying full price for things. Shopping online for essentials (toiletries, cleaning supplies, pantry staples like beans/rice/canned tomatoes) has saved me a ton of money. SlickDeals Grocery/Home sections + notifications for things I need (like contact solution) will usually save me about 30-60 dollars a month.

At walgreens, a single bottle of contact solution can be $9. Occasionally a 3-pack of the same size will go on sale for something like $6 on Amazon Subscribe and Save. Buy that and you just saved yourself a good chunk of cash.

Using CamelCamelCamel for specific products you want to buy and need immediately. Set an alert and get an email when it price drops. I got Catan for like $15 instead of $40.

Share an Amazon Prime account with your parents or a friend. You can add multiple people to one account and it saves a lot.

Generally just be diligent with spending and know how much things really cost and how cheap they can get if you're patient.

Weed has gotten so cheap you can buy an ounce of something equivalent to premium hydro for like $99. Even for a heavy pothead that's like a month's supply. If $99 over the course of a month is something you have to stop and think about, weed isn't the problem, the problem is you are poor.

If you're such a loser $800 a year is make or break money you need to make more money

To follow it up, saving money is for losers. Your time is much better spent increasing your earning ability and investing in assets that generate regular returns than it is nickel and diming yourself and making yourself miserable because your earning potential is capped at $40k a year.

staking high yield alts. polkadot and kava are two good ones though polkadot is kind of a pain in the ass, kava you just press stake on kinetix finance and you are set. you can also do this on binance and kraken. other than that i'm afraid of banks desu and even the money i stake is always flexible and never locked.

It's literally just budgeting, expect niggers are too stupid to think abstractly so they have to physically put paper cash into separate envelopes for the different categories in their budget.
Of course, niggers think this is groundbreaking and the cucksimp media is eager to cover it.
