    Living on your own makes you appreciate back when you had money to spend. I'd rather not spend money beyond the essentials (Internet is an essential), but sometimes is just unavoidable.

    I spend my money impulsively, even if I don't have them.

    Give me an excuse and I'll be a spender. Consequently I have to deal with my behaviour through extreme circumstances.

    One day I found I had nearly 3 thousand dollars in my chequing account and there was no reason for me to spend money on stuff.

    So I invested like 2500$ of it on RRSPs.

    Direct deposit into checking account, spending a bit only when I need necessities or possibly something for leisure. For the most part it all goes to rent, bills, and groceries.

    I spend money like I spend time visiting the elderly.

    A little bit of both.

    I'm more of a saver, but I am really attracted to pretty things. Like.. really. Super much.

    Neither, I still don't earn a lot of money, but when I spend it I like to have already saved up alot, and blow, like... half of it... or all of it :P

    But I always bank half of what I earn.

    I'm more of a miser than a spender, but occasionally I do spend quite a bit of money on things I'm interested in (the most recent stuff being the Carl Barks Library set).

    It varies... a lot. Sometimes I can easily spend all of my money in one day, while other times I'm somehow able to go for weeks without really spending any. I usually spend my money on clothes, CD's, DVD's, console games and food... not much else, really.

    When I get money for a birthday or something I usually spend a bit of it on the things I want, the rest goes in the bank and I just forget about it.

    I usually save up, but I do periodically do impulse buying. Expensive impulse buying, which necessitates raiding my savings.

    I'm a bit of both. But if I get a bonus of some sort it goes straight away, on things like clothes, DVDs, games and books.

    However anything I have left over (notes or pounds only) I put it in a money box on my desk. Haven't touched it for a few months now. Saving up for a new console. I'm still indecisive about which one to get.
