Struggling to save is common to many people.

It has been for me for years.

When I was a little girl it was no problem.

I would save my money, candy (nowlaters, jolly rancher sticks reese cup, soda (sprite) , and honey buns.

I never knew when I would get anymore so I didn't rush to spend or eat my goodies all at once.

As an adult I got away from that idea that I may not get anymore.

I had cash coming in all the time so it didn't matter.

I got away from saving.

Now saving is a struggle.

It seems that there is never enough money to save when you get paid or receive retirement check.

Saving money has become apart of my budget each month.

As I have moved to saving money there always seems to be something to come up to detract from me saving.

I struggle to save with each paycheck.

What I found is that instead of not saving at all I adjust to my situation and still put something in my savings account.

This is not my life happens fund or my piggy bank.

My actual savings account.

The account that I have for the future.

No matter what happens each week. 

Even if its $5 I'm putting it away.

I saved something.  The next week I try to do better.

One of the things that I do to make that happen is to transfer whatever is left after the bills are paid.

I don't always want to save.

I know it's not easy to save.

At the end of the day I remind myself that I may get old one day.

I want to have money in the bank collecting interest.

If I ever need it it's there.

With your next paycheck put something in your savings account.

$5 is a start.  It does not mean you will be stuck with that amount.

Start somewhere.  You will be glad that you did.

Those $5 add up.

Are you struggling to save???
