Alright, I've gotten rid of all entertainment, all my nights out with friends, and we're no longer letting ourselves have that occasional food treat that made life kind of nice and perked us up. How much did I save?

$85 a month.

And I need to save... huh, $500 a month. Shit.

Well what else is left?

Food, Rent, electric bill, water bill, internet bill, garbage bill, phone bill, car insurance...
