Here's the Intro

Hi, I'm Phil, I'm 23 and I'll be starting college two weeks from now. (Though I've already completed two years of community college and recieved my AA I will still be concidered a Freshman at the school I'll be attending.)

This Friday will be my last day working for money and I currently have no plans to get a job during school. Though I'm not too worried about how to survive on limited savings and Sallie Mae loans. I have some good ideas, though - things I've put into practice this past couple years of being a single working adult - on how to stretch a twenty-dollar bill and just saving money in general.

I've never had my own blog before outside of facebook and I thought it would be fun to make one to share some of my humorous-yet-informative tips on penny pinching while still enjoying the best things in life. Maybe we can get some good discussion and I can learn a thing or two from down-and-out college students living off milk money or young families trying to make car payments while working for tips at Applebees.

I tend to write very protracted emails and posts so I will attempt to stick to short themes in my posts to leave room for good discussion. You don't have to be a member to post so leave funny stories, quirky habits (bad or good), and good money saving ideas. That's all for now.
