Hello ladies and gents.

So I got paid there on Thursday and of course went shopping for Christmas food ect ect. Then I noticed something I save roughly 400$ for 2 week every pay since well forever, just incase money right.

Well after doing up the budget with the wife for Christmas shopping I noticed that I am still basically living paycheck to paycheck. I went from earning 1800 gross to last pay was 3400$ every 2 weeks. Yet I am STILL living paycheck to paycheck.

It is almost like I am trying to live paycheck to paycheck on purpose or something, no matter what I bring home I manage to spend exactly that amount every time..... Anyone else notice this?

It's fine, it's also a good sign. You are being constantly aware of your outgoings and are living within your means.
