Four Habits That Nickel and Dime Your Savings

Given that we are all creatures of habit and may struggle with various vices, I provide four daily or weekly habits that may be leaking holes in your wallet with your keen eye to realize it.

We may even be aware that these habits may cost us, but we may not be tracking just how much they really do!

Calculating out these habits to yearly expenses really puts pennies into perspective.

The four habits are:

  1. Daily drive-through coffee (or walk-in at a coffee shop)
  2. Eating out for lunch at work
  3. Alcoholic beverages
  4. Smoking
