  3. Maxing out your credit cards – another habit that you should start to say goodbye to is maxing out your credit cards. You are drowning yourself in debts through high charges and interest rates. Learn to use cash on your purchase transactions.
  4. Eating out all the time – eating out is not only expensive but it is also unhealthy for you. It is best that you prepare your own food at home. Learn to cook and start eating healthier meals, which cost you, a lot cheaper compared to dining out in restaurants.
  5. Smoking – if you’re a smoker then it is the perfect time to stop. Think about the money that you spend on cigarettes. You can easily save that to add to your savings. And needless to say, smoking is very bad for your health.
