Are you a spender or a saver? Why?
 
Bit of both. If I see something and I really want it, I can't usually wait I have to buy it. However, If there is something coming up then I will save for it. Like in the next couple of months I have car repairs, MOT and insurance to pay for. So not spending much at all.
 
I'm a saver. Owning a home, there's always something that needs to be done. I also don't buy anything unless I can pay cash for it. If I can't then I really didn't need it to begin with.

I'm this too. Though I AM a saver in the second half of the year.
 
I'm a saver. I have plenty of money, but I just hate spending money. I almost always have a sense of regret after spending a large amount of money, even if it's something I deserve/should treat myself with.
 
For the most part I'm a saver, but sometimes something will make me spend what little bit I saved.
 
I'm kind of a spender. I feel bad for it often because most of it isn't my money to begin with...

My father is a pilot, and pays me for things that most students wouldn't see money for. Consequently, I have a good bit of spending cash. While I'm active in the stock market, my savings account doesn't see much at all. :(
 
If I had to choose one I would say I am a spender. With my money I always look at it as how much do I need to save to spend it on... X. My money is always dedicated to something whether it is my emergency fund, gas, groceries, computer accessories, etc. I don't spend more money than I own though, that is my number 1 rule.
 
I'm more of a saver because I get buyer's remorse for some of the things I buy from time to time.
 
I'm neither. I rarely spend and there is rarely anything to save. But I still begrudge spending.
