Instead, we\u2019re going to have to pay for our homes out of our own pocket. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>If, like me, you\u2019re doing the practical thing and saving up for your new home, here are a few tips to help you cut costs and bring you one step closer to your dream house.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>#1 \u00a0Set yourself a monthly budget <\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Setting yourself a monthly budget is <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">key<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to controlling your finances.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The first step is to make a list of all your expenses, especially your fixed ones like phone or electricity bills, so that you know how much money you have to work with.<\/p>\n<p>Next, try to cut down on unnecessary expenditure, and set yourself clear goals for your spending. Be brutal but realistic when you\u2019re doing this. You might think you\u2019ll be happy cooking all your meals at home and not eating out ever, but that\u2019s probably not going to happen in reality!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You should also have a special \u2018emergency fund\u2019 so you\u2019re prepared for the little surprises life throws at you, like unexpected hospital bills or repairs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are tonnes of apps available out there which you can use to help keep track of your spending, and keep you on track.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>#2 \u00a0Open a separate savings account\u2026 and don\u2019t touch it! <\/b><\/h3>\n<p>As the saying goes: out of sight, out of mind. That works for saving money as well: if you don\u2019t see it, you can\u2019t spend it.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That\u2019s why we recommend opening a separate savings account for your housing fund. Use the money from your regular accounts to help pay for bills and day-to-day expenses, and keep your hands off your housing account <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">at all costs<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>#3 \u00a0Make your savings automatic<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s easy to be tempted to save less in some months over others &#8211; maybe it\u2019s a new games console that\u2019s come out, or you\u2019ve been invited to join friends on a weekend getaway &#8211; but it\u2019s important to stay regular with your savings.<\/p>\n<p>A good way to force yourself to do this is by making the savings automatic.<\/p>\n<p>Tell your HR department to send a fixed amount of your salary directly into your housing fund or, if your HR department can\u2019t do that, set up an automatic, monthly recurring transfer directly from your main account to your savings account.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don\u2019t even give yourself the option of allocating less. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>#4 \u00a0Ease up on small (but expensive) habits<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While you shouldn\u2019t cut out <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">all<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> luxuries in your life (what a miserable life that would be!), you should consider cutting down on them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re a smoker, consider quitting entirely &#8211; it\u2019s not only better for your health, it can <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singsaver.com.sg\/blog\/cost-of-smoking-in-a-year-equivalent-to\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">save you up to $4,927.50 a year<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other habits you can consider cutting out include your daily Starbucks coffee fix, taxi rides, as well as fancy meals out. You might also want to start preparing your own food, instead of buying your meals, and switching to less expensive alternatives at the supermarket (like NTUC brand toilet paper instead of the more upmarket brands). <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>#5 \u00a0Cut down on major expenses &#8211; even if it hurts<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>You\u2019ll save the most money if you can commit to the hard task of cutting out the more major expenses in your budget.<\/p>\n<p>While you might be used to changing your phone every year or so, maybe you can skip the latest Samsung and hold on to your old phone for longer. You can also forego your annual trip to Europe and choose some place a little closer to home (and cheaper) instead. And if you\u2019re renting, consider moving into an apartment with a lower rental.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These little steps can help you make significant gains in your savings account in the long run.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>#6 \u00a0Work more<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>I know we\u2019re busy enough as it is, but sneaking in a few hours of extra work each week can help give you that extra bump in your savings journey.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re eligible for overtime, try to take every opportunity that arises. If you\u2019re not, consider taking a second job on the weekends, or doing some freelancing on the side.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019ll be painful now, but worth it in the long run. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Have you got any helpful tips for saving money?
