Save money? Stop using credit cards? Pay down student loans? What’s your new year’s resolution?

One financial resolution that I have made for the New Year is to spend wisely and budget my money. I gotta learn to ask myself "do I NEED this or just WANT it?" If it's not something I NEED at the time chances are I shouldn't buy it. It's especially tough for me right now because I just finished up student teaching so now I am on my way to find a full or part time teaching job (whatever I can find) so money for me is EXTRA tight right now. We will see how well I do as the year progresses. Time to start penny pinchin!! :)
