Auto withdrawal into savings accounts.

Bonuses are not for spending.
Even before your bonus comes in, you might have plans like buying a new watch or a new bag. But the thing is that these women who don’t go broke save their bonuses. Yes, they may have a small splurge, but they put the majority of it into their savings. Because once it’s gone, it’s gone.
Tax prep like a pro.
Rather than blaming the state for taking your money, look for tax deductibles that you can use. There are many things that you might not be aware of, so check them out; you don’t lose money!
Deals and coupons are their partners.
This doesn’t make them a cheapskate, but actually someone who is smart enough to take advantage of good deals. They shamelessly use many coupons and wait for the best deals to buy more expensive items.
Saving is a priority.
