Personally, it's like "I need to save, I need to pay X debt of ASAP, or else everything will fall apart and I'll be screwed," then I end up in a depravation phase, which I get tired of and treat myself for a bit, then I feel bad because the treating-self money could have gone to more practical uses, then back to the "I need to save and pay off debts NOW" cycle. It's difficult to find a balance. Oh, I completely understand the guilt thing!

Logan, come to Nova Scotia and be my friend! We'll go to my cottage & I'll pay for the groceries! I thought I couldn’t love Logan more until she dropped in Nova Scotia.

I'm really excited, because I just checked my accounts and realized my credit cards are almost 100% paid off! I have a $20 return to make to Target and that takes care of that one, and I'll have about $50 in charges coming in to my mastercard from vacation, but next paycheck that will get paid automatically. That means when I get paid next week, all the "extra" money is mine for vacation! And then I can start building up my savings again. Very excited! You guys!

I read that book about the windmill guy! Good book but I, too, feel not so much guilt but rather inadequacy. Total inadequacy. @ElBlynx Hey! I read that book about the windmill guy!
