BellaOnline Forums Money Frugal Living Money: just enough, a little savings, or well off?

Do you have just enough money to get by, can you even save a little, or are you actually comfortable financially?

Or do you not have enough to get by even with scraping and scrapping?

Where would you like to be, on the scale? How much savings or income would make you comfortable?

I would like to be well-off - not for the lifestyle that many picture accompanying that, but the security of knowing that I am living well below my means happily, and could weather a financial disaster striking.
I really want to get more financial stability - where i can pay my bills, put money into retirements and other investment accounts, and have enough savings to feel secure.
Living frugally is going to be a key part to getting there!
Where I am now??? I have to make too many phone calls putting off some bills so I can pay others...Not a good long term get ahead strategy. I am actually toggling between screens at the moment to look at organizing my finances better and ways to save money. Feels like scraping, but I know I just need to make better decisions and choices to get to really secure and comfortable. It's all a big shift in thinking.

Right now I am just getting by, but ideally I'd like enough to live comfortably but frugally, with savings in the bank in case of emergencies, and something put away for retirement.
