Stop Throwing Your Money Away! by DDHG Editorial Team

How much money do you save every month? If you're answer is zero, you're in trouble. These days, a single girl's got to have a sound financial plan. Who wants to depend on a man? Not you! So stop throwing your money and start saving! Here are three ways to get started fast!

1. 401(K) Magic. Contribute to your company's 401(K). Most companies will match every dollar you put in, so be sure to find out how your company will match what you put in and contribute as much as you can. Save money by cutting out the daily Starbucks run and bypass that sexy new pair of shoes. Instead, put that money into the 401(K).

2. Eat in. One of the biggest expenses most families and singletons alike have is food. Eating out more than twice a week is going to cost you. And it all adds up! Cook your own meals as often as you can and watch your extra money add up!

3. Skip the shopping. That's right, we said it. No more shopping. Working singletons often have greater discretionary budgets and tend to make many impulse buys because they think they can afford it. Maybe you can afford to eat out every night and buy new shoes, every time Prada introduces a new line, even though you know money will be tight. Instead, think about how much money you could save if you didn't indulge as much. Use the extra money you save and sock it away in your 401(K)!
