This weekend I’ve spent almost $200:
$100 – car repairs
$30 – prescription
$25 – massage
$25 – gas
$12 – food
For some reason, on the weekend following pay day I always feel less bad about spending a bit more. Besides, my expenditures this weekend were necessities: car repairs, prescription, the massage (hey, I needed it!), gas (gotta drive), and food (gotta eat.. right?).
In other news, September ended uneventfully for the most part… but I think I can safely say that my net worth is in positive territory. With $14,000+ in retirement savings & $6,400 in emergency fund, my assets have finally surpassed the $19,000 student loan. Non-zero net worth? Feels pretty good.

You should feel proud, you have accomplished a lot!
Your determination and ambition to be debt free and have the life that you want is very inspiring. Keep up the good work and I am chugging along right there with you!
I want a massage!
I think your spending isn’t out of line with any sort of budget. And a $25 massage isn’t too much…just lump it in with your food budget and call it a day!
Congratulations!
where the hell did you get a $25 massage?
oh and congrats on the non-zero networth.
but i still want to know about the massage!
That’s great! Getting into a positive net worth must feel really good. I can’t wait until I get there too!!
