This is my first post. Please do respect

My post intention is to help readers to save their money.

Some of the employee are not saving their money. They spend it on things that they dont need. For example gadgets,buying a concert ticket, accesories, etc.Buying things that not they need is also like a wasting money. Because this thing give a happiness  not a good life. Saving money is just like securing your future because your savings can help you in emergencies. These are the way to save money .
If you are empolyee. You must save atleast 20% of your salary. The 20% of your salary divides into two .


The 1st way : cash reserves- medical insurance, retirement, life insurance  and if you not have salary yet. And emergency. But dont spend all of you 10% in this emergency. You must know if the injury is serious o not before you spend the 10%.
The cash reserves must equal of your 6 months salary this will help you and ensure you becauas of you loss your job you have extra money .

The 2nd way : investment, business- you can invest in some company so that you have a extra income. And you can also built a small business that will always have an income like apartment.

Example. My wage is $ 7.5 per hour and i work for 8 hours and i work for 20 days. So thar my salary is $1,160 . The 20% of $1,160 is $232 .
So that my cash reserves is $ 116 i can spend this money in emergencies and medical insurance.
If my 6 month salary is $6,960 i can stop my saving money in cash reserves.
 

Thank you .

Good advice, even tho saying "you don't need this" is relative tho. Sure thing, the only things we legitimately NEED is basic needs, the rest is relative and depends on the POV. For example for me, I needed to upgrade my computer recently, maybe other person could have said "you don't really need a better graphic card" but in my POV i really needed it so fuck it, I bought a new one.

Theres a different kind of people. Theres like a happy life, but not good.  All of people have choices so choose want do you want and makes you happy

I believe in only spending when it is necessary. The worst is taking loans to buy stuff that depreciate in value. Younger generation these days tend to spend indiscriminately leaving very little for savings. When it comes to saving it's a matter whether one has the discipline to do it.

Good post, I will keep this in mind (20% of salary sounds good but some people might not have enough of a salary to save that much), but how are you making $7.5 an hour. I am assuming you live in a country other than the US or Canada where that wage would be illegal because your language/grammar is a tiny bit off and the wage of $7.5 would be illegal here. Where are you from?

Nice to see my classmate post in here. Finally managed to get him in here and know what bitcoin really is. A great start, dude. Keep it up.

As for the topic, it is indeed true that you must save some of your salary in case shit happens. It's better to be safe than to be sorry after all. 20% is a good percent if you might ask me, and as you have stated, it can be divided into two different ratio: emergency and cash reserves. In this way, you might avoid the hassles of loans whenever an emergency happened when you least expected it. Also, you can have something to spend whenever you run short of your salary.

Yes. Discipline is what the younger generation lacks today. We tend to be pressured by different trends and sometimes "want" to be in the trend so we end up spending rather than saving.

We live in the Philippines. The minimum wage is Php 429 (or $9.57 at the time of writing) for 8 hours. Very low, yes. You can't even live decent with those for a month, so people end up being indebted and therefore cannot save money for whenever an emergency occur. But amazingly, people can go with it, but tbh, the wage is so low that you cannot live very comfortably with the salary you might receive on your payday.

I also live in philoppines . But my example is the current wage in the US, so that their wage is enough to live and they have also a savings. In the philippines the wage of employee is not enough to live, theres many expences, like paying bills, foods and etc. But, if you want really to save, its up to you not in your wage. You have choices save your money if you really want or dont save thats easy.

Thanks for your advice, I'll try to save some of my money again from now.
I tried it from a long time ago to create cash reserves, but after that I still spend it

Any way to make me not in touch with my reserves until the exact date?

[Amph]

"the first necessity of the man is the superfluos"

my suggestion is to save a small amount every day/week/month, so you don't end in trouble if you need money

and you don't need exactly to buy only needed things, you can buy some thing that make you happy from time to time, just be thrifty

[Dotakels]

Good question. You can spend it if you need it. But if you don't really need don't spend it. And do not spend your savings for your personal interest only or buying a things that would not help you. Remember, no interest in savings. So dont think that your money is doubling or trippling.

If the minimum wage is $9.57 then how are you being paid $7.50. A minimum wage of about 10 us dollars actually isn't bad here, with the currency exchange thats actually higher than the canadian minimum wage. Or is that 9.57 for a total of 8 hours of work? I think that violates human rights, 1 dollars an hour is too low

If the world spent like I did, or rather didn't, we'd still be living in the trees.

The only thing I spend proper money on is travel. Other than that I can't ever think of objects that I want any more. I seem to have everything that does the job.

I enjoy smoking. I'd quit if I had to pay the full price. I get mine tax free from abroad.

The thing that catches people out in my experience is the everyday little 'treats'. If you're nipping into Starbucks a couple of times a day, that can easily add up to a ton of money over a year.

If you've got the cash to burn, then great. Most people don't and wonder why they're left scraping around without properly thinking through where their money's getting burnt.

I am afraid that 9.57 is a payment for a whole day of work. Do you think that was for just 1 hour? Haha, not really. I am amused that some people from rich countries are oblivious to poverty of others. And Op you are thinking that I can save something when I got less than 2$ per hour of my work? Think again.

[Dotakels]

Its not my fault. But what your is job? Do you think that your job only for $9.57?and i said that a month. Not in a day.

-dont eat crap like fast food. its not cheap and you get no nutrition. eat more fresh fruits/vegitables
-cut out smoking/drinking
-make your own coffee
-rethink your expensive phone/data plan
-get rid of car payment (pay cash for used car)
-DONT USE CREDIT CARDS. If you cant afford something today, you probably dont NEED it today

just a few ways I can think of

Plnt trees, buy lands, invest in something that will give small but sure gain. Don't need to take it high in the skyscraper. I am an optimist so I like to gamble big, but saving sensible or investing sensible is the right way to go.

True. And also, if you are thinking about investing, having a diversified portfolio is great. It allows you to minimize the risks that you might encounter and gives you an assurance that you will not lose everything that you have once an investment of yours encounter bankruptcy or a great loss.

To do all of these you first need to make some money... it all starts with having a job or some sort of monthly income where you can save a % of it monthly. If you are only paying bills you are another poor soul trapped in the system with no hope.
