    A way to switch my cash flow from negative to positive would be to get a job certainly. Or I can minimize the negative by cutting out Netflix, internet, and junk food. Groceries are important, I have to eat.

    If I want to change my cash flow to positive either I want to job or stop eating the fast food in every month. I think I most spend money on the going restaurant and eat fast food. If I reduce that maybe It will be change to positive flow

    In order to change my cash flow into a positive, I need to go back to work. I have a job as a roofer that I've been doing so far this summer but it is a full time job and I can't do it while taking these classes. However, I will be going back to it after classes end and will be back in the positive cash flow. Another thing that might help, would be to cut back on the Misc stuff that I purchase.

    In order to improve my cash flow I am starting off by applying for jobs. My parents wanted me to have a car so I can go to places, but I had to agree that I would pay them back. I owe them $6,000 on the car.

    My cash flow as of right now is positive. Now that I moved back in with my parents I don't have to pay rent so that helps out. What I could do to help out is maybe not eat out as much as I do.

    I'm satisfied with my current cash flow, but obviously I would love to increase it. I think the best way to increase my cash flow would be to stop spending money on food and other things I don't actually need to spend money on.

    I am currently looking for a job so I can do things that I want to do as well as pay for gas and whatnot. I obviously could stop doing magic tournaments to save a little bit of money but then i wouldn't have anything to look forward to in any given week.

    Right now I dont have to pay for bills because i'm "in school" but that will all change pretty soon here. I'm not really thrilled about my current cash flow but like I said it varies because of school. When i'm in school I work less so I make less. But i get by just fine. When I get this new job in Savage from my Aunt I will be making $15-25 an hour and that will increase my cash flow/net worth dramatically! I also dont spend much of money on anything other than gas and junk food.
