What are you saving up for?




Posted by Vampnagel P. Wingpire

Well, I spend a lot of money on gas, but otherwise, I'm trying to save up enough to get through school and for when I move out. I'm not entirely sure when that will be, but hopefully within the next couple of years. And hopefully with someone special. :)

So, uh, what about you?

a car




Posted by mis0

Cars are huge money pits.

At the moment I'm not really able to save much money because of the increased cost of fuel, and my increased need for my car. What I do save is for college books and other expenses.

Posted by boomstick

Getting through college and all that jazz comes first on my list and since my car is paid off, I only need to worry about that of fuel, which is expensive as hell nowadays.

Besides those things I save for the regular reasons, games, movies, concerts and the like.

I'm not saving up for anything in particular right now. I just know I have a lot of money for whatever I want in the future. :cool:




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

Saving up for... well, basically life. I've been saving money for eight to nine years so I have a comfortable cushion of money when I move out.




Posted by Fate

College seat deposits, Saiyuki DVDs, manga, and next-gen video games. :cool:

Nothing, really. I don't spend enough money to have a problem with spending

Quoting Stalolin: why


They're rad and cheaper than iPod minis. Plus, considering I now have regular computer access, I can change things on the fly.

Quoting Klarth: They're rad and cheaper than iPod minis. Plus, considering I now have regular computer access, I can change things on the fly.


Cheaper? What are you talking about.

2GB iPod Nano = $199 which is equivalent in price to a 4GB iPod Mini.

Now, 4GB iPod Nano = $250, which again, is the same price as a 6GB iPod Mini.

They're charging you because of the small size and the nice thin look. Other than that, you're not getting a deal. At least with the mini you get 2GB more than any nano at the same price, and the mini isn't that "large" to begin with.



Posted by Caryatid

I tend to put a little money aside whenever I get some, so that I can pull out my small savings when I see something I want. Otherwise, I tend to spend my money on small things like food or drinks at school.

i'm saving up for a mini fridge to put in my room. i intend to store lots of drinks and chcolates in it.




Posted by Landon

LOL!
That's awesome Jak.
When I was a bit younger, I wanted a Mini Fridge for my room pretty badly.




Posted by Bebop

Don't get a mini fridge. Seriously. It really is a waste of money. After you spend say $100 on one you realize you've got a perfectly good fridge downstairs.




Posted by Landon


Quoting Bebop: Don't get a mini fridge. Seriously. It really is a waste of money. After you spend say $100 on one you realize you've got a perfectly good fridge downstairs.


Yes, but it's not in your room, thus the entire point to begin with.

Though, I'm not really going to save up for this. I'll just use part of my tax return to pay for it in full, or finance it for 0% APR until 2008 and pay it off way before then. I imagine a PS3 (or any next-gen system for that matter) will look pretty sweet on one of those things. I just hope I can make room in my bedroom for it.

The Paseo ****tin' it up?

I did an inspection of my car earlier this week, and it needs:
- Brake Pads
- New spark plug wires
- Spark plugs
- Timing belt
Total of like $500
And because it's a Hyundai, and not an awesome Toyota, if I let that timing belt break, the fukken valves will meet their worst enemies, the pistons. Fun fun times, so I either let that happen or spend lots of bux. :(
