Quick background, I found this site about a year ago and turned my life around. I went from being $6,500 in debt living paycheck to paycheck to maxing out my 401k, adding $17,000 to my bank account, and paying off my car in full in that time frame. That being said, there is ALWAYS room for improvement.
After reviewing my spending for the past 6 months one number stuck out to me.... I had spent roughly $3,000 on alcohol and bars in the past 6 months. WHAT THE FUCK?!?!?!?! Between weekends out with friends, and fancy micro brews throughout the week...am I delusional? My brother and best friend are in with the "challenge". Started this weekend. I will keep you posted.
