The Almost Millonaire – Don’t feel bad. I pick them up all the time if I see them. As long as they don’t have something gross on them, I’ll pick it up.

Good suggestions. Larry Winget has a good book on this topic: You’re Broke Because You Want to Be.

For me when I was deep in debt, I used to get all pumped up when i paid my balance in full but right away i spent money.
The reason I spent money was that I was trying to like buy into get rich quick methods and instead i should have been working on disciplining myself to not spend money on what i don’t need.

Hi Steve, some folks think it’s easier and simpler if all accounts are kept at one institution. For the most part I agree, and do keep a bulk of mine at one – but there’s also the question of diversification – so I do have a couple of accounts at other institutions. At this point it doesn’t add much complexity. So just go with what works for you. For US investors, it may actually have been a good thing to keep money in different banks over the last year…

Great post! Just curious, where do you put all of your different savings accounts? Are they all at one institution? Do you use automatic withdrawals?
