My advice is... go get your nails done every time you reach a debt reduction milestone as a way to reward yourself. Then you'll appreciate it all the more!

I can no longer justify that money for vanity. I have too many real expences. Now the only time I buy clothes is when I really need something. It is a good start but still there is so much more to do. I'm sure my husband would freak if I were to make the TV disappear but I could live without it.

I agree to some of them but there are certain things that you cannot let go because otherwise you will not live like a human being. However, we can stop certain costly habit like cigarette, alcohol and save good amount of money, which can be invested in SIP (Systematic Investment Plan). Thank you for the post.

Being a woman, my next biggest "habbit" is getting my nails done. This was the most painful for me, but I'm saving an additional $40-$120/month!

Could you imagine trying to give them all up at the same time? One would go nuts! Maybe we should consider just "cutting back" for the first bit before we cut things out completely. One small step at a time. Personally, I don't think I could give up alcohol all together. I enjoy my occasional drink too much. Nothing quite like a nice cold beer on a summer's eve.
