"i never really wanted to spend that much money. And then in college, a, i had to live on a tight budget," she says. "That was the difference between sleeping on people's couches verses like actually renting my own room" She now works 20 hours a week at 13 bucks an hour and makes about a thousand dollars a month.
#2: Once again, Paula and J. Money see things differently.
J. Money preaches budgeting, Paula practices the “anti-budget”.
J. Money examines every expense to find savings. A couple years ago he switched phone providers and saves $100 a month, $20 a month on insurance and $60 on cable.
Paula recommends saving at least 20 percent of your income first, then go wild with the rest; “Don’t feel guilty about spending money on Coke Zero or turtle food”
