I've been reading his blog for a long time, and he's the first personal finance blogger that didn't make me dread passing by a Starbucks ['cause, you know, if I buy a latte, it makes me a personal finance failure]. He's got some brilliant advice about earning more - I'm saving up to take his Earn1k course. The Earn1k preview course is free for everyone, and it helped me immensely. Great stuff. Awesome blog, btw. I'm looking forward to reading more. :-D Ramit is a genius.

I personally love going to the gym. Haven't always been like that, especially when you're just getting into the routine, it's the worst thing in the world. But once you do it often, you can't live without it. And the second lesson is also great. Why cut things out of your life that you enjoy. Instead try to make more money. I just returned from Europe and noticed they really live by the rule: work as little as possible while getting the most out of life rather than living to work as so many people are used to in N. America. I enjoyed reading your post, thanks Nicole. Both great lessons learnt. I personally love going to the gym.

She is super cool and, quite honestly, she's my role model. As a nutritionist, I love that she is promoting healthy living to such a wide audience. And she's realistic. She's all about moderation and not denying yourself, which is the ONLY way to experience true long-term success. I just had to comment to say that I LOVE BETHENNY!

I have to say that I've always been frugal, so I've always had money saved, but frugal to the point of not having fun. It was only at the age of 26 that I realized it's only money, I can always make more, let's have a little fun! My life improved dramatically and I haven't looked back. Staying active and eating well has always been at the forefront of my mind. One, because I don't want to be paying insane medical bills down the road! Two, because I was raised that way and I always remember how I feel after going to the gym. Gym membership was one thing I never skimped on! I do have to say, however, it's not easy in your early 20s with happy hours and bar nachos! I started forgoing the gym because all my friends were going out AND then feeling pretty bad the next day at work. I realized I could not go on like this, but I didn't want to miss out on all of the fun. I decided to enlist my friends to join my health kick. Every morning when I'd come into work I'd email a few of my friends with different exercise classes and times we could go. We were all in it together and then we would go out for a bite to eat or 1 drink afterwards. These are 2 issues that I think twentysomething year olds definitely struggle with.
