How I Feel About Money Today – 11.20.10

Recently I came across a post asking and answering a few questions about money. I thought it was a good idea to answer these questions each week and to track the changes. I got this idea from My Pretty Pennies, and here is her most recent post.

The idea is that you list five questions about money and answer them each week. The first four questions stay the same, and the fifth one changes each week. I think it will be fun for us to look back over time and see how our answers have changed!

1. The most I’ve spent this last week was on _____.

Car registration. Another reason why we must ask ourselves if a car is a luxury or a necessity!

2. Today I feel _______towards money.

Great! We received a couple of unexpected checks in the mail this week.

3. Money can’t buy happiness. One free/inexpensive thing I did last week that made me happy was_____________.

Hang out with my nephews!

4. I will consider this week a success if I _____________.

Fix my mother’s computer.

5. I plan on spending ___________ on Black Friday.

~ $150 (depending on if we hit up all three major drugstores). The CVS Black Friday 2010 deals are too good to pass up!

So, there you have it! I plan to answer these questions once a week (changing the 5th one), and I hope you’ll join me. Please answer these questions in the comments, and discuss each other’s answers. I also want to hear your feedback about my answers.
