Once you are in the habit of saving, it becomes easy and you won't miss the money. I became a much better saver after taking over my parents finances about 6 years ago. They pull a ton of money from our family business, but at their retired ages, they had no savings, no retirement accounts and no health insurance. I have been able to slowly hide some savings for them, set up an IRA for my mom and an HSA health savings account too. If this would have been started a long time ago, the amount needed every month to get them in a more reasonable place would have been much less. If you don't save for your future or even for small household emergencies, you will end up in trouble later on in life. You can't rely on anyone else but yourself, so pay yourself first.
