That Itchy Spending... Personal Record

So, here I am, I've finally come to terms that I've decided to record my progress through the media. A personal thought on how much my view towards finance, especially with money has changed.

As a 23 year old girl working full time in retail, with a fashion degree, I would have never thought that my interest would slowly turn itself towards budgeting, saving or even finance.

In today's society, having your first job is exciting, but once you have that job it very hard to acknowledge that saving the money you have worked for can lead you into two paths. Saving. Or staying broke.

I want to share my experience with money as an ordinary London girl who LOVED the freedom to shop, going out with friends, overusing my mobile phone minutes and spending all my money with no finance background.

Many girls my age would have a job, spend it all, live "Paycheck-To-Paycheck" (which I will abbreviate under PTP later on) and would find it incredibly hard to save 10% of what they earn. I'm not pointing the finger because I used to live this way and it would be a great thing to see more girls and women to save more than to spend.
