Ugh dont we all have these!! However, thats what good student loans are for (and no dropping the $300 i get from tax returns would not touch the 20K i owe for my school. Oh the troubles of going to a good school)

If i have it in the bank most likely it will get spent. Im a college student limited funds :P

the only advantage i have is that i dont have to pay taxes. i just claim zero and let it ride. i guess i dont care that much because i make enough to make ends meet, regardless how much they take out.

I'll contribute to my IRA account. (you all should think about starting this while your young) I started mine when I was 18 or 19, I'm 31 now and have a good nest egg growing for me when I retire. I add to it each year, and all it does is just sit there and grows interest. I also contribute to my 401K out of each paycheck which my employer used to match dollar for dollar, they cut that back, now its like 3% of what you put in they put in. Times are hard, or they are going bankrupt soon. LOL I use that money in stocks to make money off my money. That just sits there too and grows.

Whats left over...I'll probably spend on some home improvement projects. I would like to finish the electrical in the garage, insulate, and put up OSB on the walls and paint the inside white.

I dunno, I worked and let the job pay for most of my school. Graduated debt free. Took longer and less partying.

Things us poor people have

Ehhh the school I go to costs 33K a year.. I cant even work that off :P i get all but 10K payed for in aid the rest im left to loans

my parents paid for school. they said 'you stay home and do your work, we'll pay. you will have to pay for any classes you have to take over.' i said 'okay'.

$90k+ gone. 4 years and out. booyah.

That would be a dream!!! I hate being the third child i get nothing good :P

my brother decided to be a mechanic and went to a 2 year program. he's poor.

gaz money

im gettin a settlement as well as my tax check so i got bout 6k comin to me. prolly gonna pay the car off and buy me a tep tranny. also if you want to save money the easiest way for me was to make a fake bill. just force yourself to put like 50 bucks a month somewhere. savings or another account. if you have direct deposit you can have a % of your paycheck go to another account. since im so lazy i begin to forget about that little bit thats been piling up. i had 500 bucks this year that piled up. just saying.

I already did my taxs....refund should be on the way to my bank account now.

Coilovers
Wheels
Digital SLR camera

my bank pulls $500 from my checking into my savings every month. it's my way of saving for the wedding without having to do anything.

I forgot to add if I have enough (or close to it) left over Im going to get my windows tinted

**** im still poor. i only get $1200 back. sad panda.

SD carbon fiber hood, SD carbon fiber spoiler, pillar gauge pod w / gauges, intense 1x blower cam & new timing chain, wideband sensor, new tires, dyno tune

If I get money back at all I'd be happy. Last year my return was $1
