After being a grownup for a while I noticed I was living from paycheck to paycheck and it kind of sucked. So I decided to clean house. First thing I did was simple: start living from the first day of the month until the last. This meant that I had to do a few things:
1. Get paid. _Immediately_ with no penny missing, I dropped this entire amount into my savings account.
2. That first month (I get paid on the 23rd) I had to stop spending money for a full week until the month was up. This was _hard_.
2. That first month (I get paid on the 23rd) I had to stop spending money from that salary for a full week until the month was up. This was _hard_.
3. At the end of the month I moved the money back to my checking account. So I moved it away on the 23rd, and moved it back on the 1st.
4. Then, I lived through the month. Up until the 23rd everything was going fine. I kept track of _all_ my expenses.
5. On the 23rd (the second time) I got paid again. Yay! Quickly move to step 1 and put all of that money on my savings account.
