I'm a motivator. Some people stand on the side lines cheering, saying "get up Barry, you can do it" - I have a different tact... "You're shit Barry, stay down you weak cunt" 

 

Barry gets up pretty quick after that.

 

On the breakfast tip, I agree Josh. I'm having some pasta from last night. Pasta is hearty as fuck, yo?!

Reverse psychology Nik?

 

Could work... or could go the other way where the person agrees with what you are saying and gives up... LOL!

 

Anyway, I'll get things done in time... $$$ is always an issue... well, $$$ and time...

It's not reverse psychology, it's negative motivation. If they do just give up, they are a weak cunt so I'm right either way. If I'm encouraging and they don't get up, I look silly.

 

It's all about me, Zachary.

I had froot loops for breaky.

But alot of the time i stay in bed and end up not having time for brakefast.

+1 for the saving/paying shit off. How does everyone work there savings? I set up weekly automatic transfers to happen savings/carloan/creditcard a day after i get paid. And then any OT goes straight into savings.

Yeah! See guys, Mark and I both coach junior sport. We know how to yell at spaz's.

No Nik, its all about me... get it right...

 

But good point... whether get get up or stay down, you don't look like a fool...

 

I like the way you think...

ANZ has an awesome money tracker, so I just use that. Best one I've seen anyway - NAB is catching up though.

i have set automatic transfers to take money out of my account that my pay goes into and transfers it across to my savings account. if after my week cycle ive got excess money left over after paying bills/car/fuel general spending for the week and the like, i will often transfer more over again manually into the account

it works surprisingly. it gives them a reason to prove you wrong, motivates them more and gives them the attitude of "well if you dont think i can do this, fork you, i am gonna prove you wrong!"

I don't get overtime... damn Salary... bills, mortgage and groceries come out of my salary and everything else... whatever wife earns or I transfer into her bank is saved, because I can't touch it and she won't either, unless it is something she needs urgently... since I can't get the money out of her account, it gets saved very well... more than enough to buy a new car, but she won't let me have it... LOL!

 

I save a little myself too for car stuff... but obviously that fund increases quite slowly...

[Adam]

My saving plan ATM. Don't buy shit other than food and fuel

I also have a automatic transfer set up to put some money into an offset account, and one for each of us for a smal amount of weekly pocket money

I save mine. Rach spends hers. Lol

How does everyone work there savings?

hahaha Unicorns.

Magical car, mythical savings method... 

 

Makes sense....

Damn right. Obviously not to my u/12's girls team (although girls respond better than boys usually anyway) - but the u/18's teams can hack it. The footy coaches down here are fuckin' brutal, so anything I say still sounds like a melody.

 

 

... whatever wife earns or I transfer into her bank is saved,

 

Dude, that's not a savings account, you're just whipped. 

[Adam]

Smoko

[skillionaire]

I figured you'd been on smoko for the last two hours?!

[Zac]

 

Dude, that's not a savings account, you're just whipped. 

Dammit Nik... you saw right through me... LOL!

 

Well, my wife is stricter with money than I'd be, so if I had money in a savings account, I'd be tempted and would be able to withdraw from it. She saves to a goal at least, which is good... blah... works for me...

[Adam]

Hey! I've been pretty quiet this morning!

[skillionaire]

Dude, no need to justify your level of whipped'ness to me. You do you, homie.

 

@Adam: It's been nice.

So. This tracks a banger.

 

[Zac]

Haha... most of the time I prefer to do the whipping, but meh...
