Most people don’t lose their money. Most people just waste it on frivolous things. How much do we spend a year on new styles, new technologies, new etc? Let alone the money that goes to the 300+ channels and extra messaging and data plans on our phones. We don’t lose our money, we spend it.
People lose their money because they fail to plan. Financial Peace University is a helpful resource.

Consumer capitalism.

By not keeping track of all the little expenses that add up. Going to starbucks every morning is not necessary. Invest in a coffee machine, wake up a little earlier. <- save money. Simple. People make things more complicated than they need to be.

They keep it in their front pocket and it falls out when they pull out their keys or something.
Danielle:
Carelessness
Ken:
I thought of several things and it all boils down to carelessness, so I’ll go with that. Putting a little thought into every purchase saves so much money.

I agree with those who said money is spent trying to buy happiness.
Rachel:
I don’t think people really lose it, just waste it maybe
catie:
either having it fall out their pockets or leaving it somewhere and then forgetting where it is

By buying things they are advertised to buy, *supposed* to buy, and see others buying so followed to buy.
