My grandma used to say a penny saved is one less you'll have to earn in the future. I was a kid at the time, so that message didn't resonate well. I was more focused on using the money I earned from mowing the lawn to acquire toys and video games.
However, as an adult, that message really changed the way I approached spending and saving my money. Why not make your money work for you, so you don't have to work harder in the future to earn more of it?
