Lead a healthy lifestyle. Not all elements of a healthy lifestyle lead to savings. Irina told how much the gym, personal training and delivery of proper nutrition cost. In another article, Julia explained that saving on sports is real.
Use at least those healthy lifestyle options that directly reduce your costs. For example, cycling or walking instead of transportation. My friends tell me that the cost of buying a bike pays off because you stop spending money on travel.
Less money will go away if you stop eating just for pleasure. It is difficult if a habit has developed, and usually the person breaks down anyway. Therefore, it is not necessary to change drastically: at first, you can reduce the fat content of products, drink kefir, and not buy a piece of cake. If you fail, just try again as if nothing had happened.
Give up bad habits. Quitting bad habits is not easy for most people and requires gradualism. For example, it is difficult to quit smoking right away, although everyone understands that it kills. But Anton did it – try it too.
How to save on alcohol
Forget fashion. I noticed that it is profitable to buy not the most fashionable clothes, but the one that is sold for a promotion. You can just choose a universal classic – you can’t go wrong, but at the same time you will save money. Some go further, for example, Evgeny buys clothes in second-hand stores and saves 34 thousand rubles a year.
Take good care of things. Maxim spoke about his six rules for shoe care. Thanks to this, they served him for nine years.
Do things yourself. Of course, you will not make a digital camera, an incandescent lamp or a hair dryer, but a lampshade, original containers for storing things or a photo frame is quite capable of a person. There are many sites out there that have complete hand-made guides.
Replace paid hobbies and interests with free ones. To run, you can go to the gym, or you can find some park near your home. For example, I run in Central Park, which is fresher and freer than on the treadmill in the gym.
Give gifts made with your own hands if you know how to do something with them. For example, a custom-made knitted scarf is more expensive than buying from a store. If you knit it yourself, spend only on yarn. It looks like such a gift sincerely.
How much will you make if you sell all these stupid gifts
Use exchange services. There are special services for the exchange of things. Through them, you can exchange a phone, a car or even an apartment with another person.
