My Frugal Miser - March 2026 Spending

Frustrating.  

I was doing quite well.  In Aruba for work, and the first couple of days I played a little in the casino.  I was up over $400.  Then one of my coworkers joined me and we drank way too much.  The alcohol has a way of making me do stupid things.  I accessed cash - a lot of it - from a credit card, and in about 10 minutes, I lost it all.

The rest of my March spending was reasonable.

• I replaced the brakes and got an oil change on my car.
• 
  

Fun (aka Personal Travel)

We love adventures.  Spending on experiences makes us better humans (well, not in March!).  

• I didn't book any trips.
• Except for a small amount spent at AMC, my spending was money lost gambling.
