Default Re: Stop Saving Your Money!

I transferred the credit cards around to keep getting the 0% so I paid no interest, but I kept using the cards. Finally a few years ago, I decided to pay off the cards and only charge what I could pay for each month. I have managed to do that for several years now. I have always had a saving account and I would not feel comfortable without one. Fortunately, I do earn 5.25% interest. I have a girlfriend who had no savings. I asked her if she could just save $5 each week. She said, yes, but what good would that do? That was 30 years ago, I wonder how much money she would have now?
