How I Saved 100 Million Won in 3 Years on a 3 Million Won Salary
I pooled everything together: savings accounts, ETFs, and overtime pay. I always packed lunch and drank office mix coffee. The biggest secret was probably 'no impulse buying.' But these days, prices have gone up so much that I can't save as much as before. What are you all doing for financial management?

Avoiding impulse purchases is really important. I lowered my card limit and turned off all shopping app notifications. Three years of patience is no joke.
Wow, that's really impressive... 300 to 100 million? Damn. I've been packing my lunch too, but now I'm wondering if I should give up coffee as well.
Was it better to focus on ETFs? I've heard that dollars or REITs are also good these days. Can you recommend any ETF tickers?
I agree that prices have gone up. I used to be able to save 500,000 won a month, but now even 300,000 is tough. Still, if you keep at it, things will work out eventually.
