Contrary to what others may say, saving is actually not that difficult, it just depends on a person's way of thinking. Most people complain about how hard it is to save money, but they don't actually consider changing their lifestyle. Unfortunately, one of the reasons for this is that people try so hard to keep up with others that they simply don't want others to have better lives than they do. They wouldn't let their neighbor have a better car, a better house, better furniture. It's like they're entering a competition where there's no real prize and the only thing that might happen in the end is that they'll end up broke. How will you be able to save, if you can't live simply, if you keep spending money on unnecessary things just to feel and look better than others. In the end, it is you who will lose even if there is really no competition afterwards
