I just finished PAYING, about my every -monthly--BILL
so have completed the mission on hand, and am just relieved and THRILLED

Always will have BILLS to --PAY
to SURVIVE, in this FAST--PACE--COMPUTER--world --TODAY

I miss using --CASH
Even as a kid, i would love to save, hide and put away, every penny, nickel and dime, and have it hidden away as my emergency--STASH

But now a days, we use debit and credit cards to pay every--BILL
and i am missing putting away my change, and seeing my savings grow, and feel that--THRILL

Every credit card, the interest that is--APPLIED
when, using credit cards, True SAVINGS is not on your --SIDE

People hardly even have a dollar in their wallet or purse,--ANYMORE
as we use debit cards, credit cards for every transaction, in everyplace we spend more and --MORE

Im gonna get back to saving every nickel, dime, quarter and cent, dollar coin, and fifty cent--PIECE
then i can see my savings right in front of me, and feel, thrifty at--LEAST

Every time you use an ATM, --TRANSACTION
your money is being depleted, with a charge of a dollar, or two, and sometimes a charge of more than THREE, your common sense, to be thrifty and wise, and save every cent, is lost with credit cards, interest, monthly charges, annual charges, late fees, every banking fee and ATM, your savings are lost, and not-- wisely--thriftly--WON
