Thanks to this forum I have been able to turn my financial life around! Two years ago the situation was this: New city, new job, new relationship - and very little understanding of my own economy. This meant that I was spending more than I made pretty much every month.

Then something changed. I don't remember why I started reading BFC, it might have been someone linking the first cornholio thread in GBS - but I've since read pretty much every thread on here and was able to take control of my own economy by: budgeting (thanks pearbudget!), negotiating for two major raises at work, and just generally starting to become more aware of my economy and living within my means. As an example; when I was a student in college I could spend 1000$ on food in a month, now we spend less than that for two people and I'm eating much healthier.
