- I can eat Century Tuna every freakin' day.
- If it's your dilapidated shoes' time, it's its time—no matter how much industrial strength rugby you slather on it.
- The idea of spending money on clothes and shoes causes me to develop a sudden, guilt-laced fever.
- Your budget remains theoretical until you actually follow it. Even if you've edited and formatted it with nice little borders and fonts.
- My "latte factor" will eventually run me into bum-hood. (Thanks Oprah!)
- In reference to your fiscal future, the repercussions of adopting the line of thinking that advocates the constant use of taxis despite a variety of weak excuses (It's raining! I have too many bags! I might get lost!) will be disastrous.
- WAP is evil. Like, three-times-your-usual-phone-bill type of evil.
- As expected, having cable television takes away the need to have actual friends. Welcome back crappy reality tv and all my other pseudo-friends! I've missed you!
- Stop arguing. You're not going to save money if you go to the mall. It's like dangling a mouse in front of a cat. And for the record, the mouse = you, the cat = your impending bankruptcy.
- I don't really need to drink fruit shakes or halo-halos every other day now do I?
- It doesn't really matter much that you walk to work every day when you go resto hunting at night. Unless of course basic mathematics changes and six pesos is suddenly greater than P200.
- No, you don't actually have to buy a P150 can of peanut butter nor that P100 box of mint tea.
- Stop feeling sorry for yourself. You're not going to get anywhere by being bitter against the rich brats who were born into their credit limits. It's time to get angry. Like, you're-going-to-ram-yourself-into-a-wall-if-you-spend-any-more-money type of angry.
- You don't need to look further than the amount of shopping bags and resto receipts you have lying around the house for the reason why your bank account can never seem to recover.
- The following are dangerous words to people attempting to save money: "Eh, _____ pesos lang naman yan," "Discounted naman", "hindi naman tayo talaga gagastos," "anong balak mo tonight?" "this is a gift for myself," "I deserve this," and, well, basically the word "lang."
- To emphasize the point, discounts don't really equate to savings. And stop comparing to the regular price. Compare it to not spending at all. Not spending is what actually equates to savings!
- To be included in a long list of really bad mottos: Screw the future! Live in the now!
