    So I decided to stop buying things for 6 months. I'm on month 4. I've only bought food, beer, and gas and paid all my bills. NOTHING else. I paid off all my credit cards and yesterday sent the payment for the remainder of my student loans. In a few days I will be completely debt free.

    • +1000 for not buying junk you don't need, but what about fun? Movies? Concerts? Arcades?
