I view each month’s bill – whether it be from the water company, the electric utility, or the natural gas provider – as a way to gauge how well I am doing in my efforts to both conserve energy and save money. How much money do I get to keep in my bank account this month? Did I use less power than last month?

This research has to be extensive because there are quite a number of things to consider: The make of the car The size Fuel consumption Maintenance Comfort Off-road capabilities A lot of this will depend on what you are looking for when buying the car. Setting up an automatic savings account system works wonders for me.

How did you get interested in saving money? I learned to save money by watching my parents. (I I still remember saving my change as a kid so I could “shop” for books at yard sales.) We knew it would be a balancing act, so we were working on saving money long before the wedding.

A few years ago, I made it my personal obsession goal to see if I could completely pay for our Disney trips with “free money” and I’ve accomplished that goal every year but once (I was only a couple hundred dollars short). This is the first year I started a Disney/vacation savings account of $25 a week.
