My bank balance from Oct 2010 to Feb 2011

The last time I talked about money was back in May 2011.

The story goes on, and here’s how it’s looked like since then:

Pretty good, huh! The sudden leaps without many plots represented BMT and my Signal Course. I spent most of my time staying in camp during those months- from July to December- and saved tonnes of cash on food, transport and other little expenses.

The number began below zero because I was in debt. Of course, I didn’t actually have a negative value in my bank balance- I paid off my debt slowly over time, and adjusted the numbers accordingly to account for it. (For the geeky, I had the graph to represent the sum of two columns- a balance column and a debt column which had a negative value.)

The later dips happened as I began to resume pre-stay-in life expenses. I’ve also invested in a Lumosity subscription (100++ dollars for 2 years), bought Foo Fighters tickets (100+ dollars), went clubbing (100+ dollars in one pointless, unfulfilling night), went out with the girlfriend who just returned from Europe (100+ dollars). I’ve still got my internet bill to pay (100+ dollars over a few months) and L’arc~en~Ciel tickets- (138 dollasrs) and other things… but all in all, while I’ve been spending more than I’d like over the past few months, the overall trend looks good to me.

Going to be a millionaire eventually. Just sayin’.
