Procrastinating: We all procrastinate from time to time. We usually postpone our trip to the car repair shop for a routine check-up. We believe we will save money by doing so, but this is not the case. Postponing can lead to major issues that can bankrupt you. So, do it now and you will save yourself a lot of trouble later.

Eating Out: Eating out is enjoyable until your credit card bill soars. Cook your own meals to save money. Make batches and store them in the freezer. Plan your meals ahead of time to make life easier for yourself.

Smoking: Cigarette smoking is not cheap and can cost you a lot of money in the long run. If you do not stop smoking, it can lead to certain types of cancer. Yes, it can be difficult, but take it one step at a time.

Avoid purchasing takeout coffee as well. Instead of going to coffee shops, make your own at home. Also, cancel any streaming services that you do not use.
