<prompt> Human: right now i am in the marines stationed in Okinawa, Japan. i earn E-3 pay but get extra for com-rats and overseas pay. i have a problem with saving money and like to spend it but i want to save it and know i have to. i need you guys to help me out so i have enough money to fly home for an emergency or anything else. below are my income and expenses. please help.i get payed on the first and fifteenth of each month around 1055 each pay period.i have a loan back home for my car and i have about 1500 left.i have to pay some money to MAS military auto Source. i was stupid and chose to get a motorcycle and would life to have at least 10,000 down payment once i leave okinawa on august 2017.100 Phone payment on the 15th30 internet payment on the 1st i do not have to pay for housing, but i do have to pay for food about 200 a month.i have about 2,000 saved up from the past year ive been here.EditOk my bad I shouldve explain a bit further on the mas and my loan.When I pay mas it collects it all for down payment for when I leave. Therefore its a separate account not controlled by me. I should have over 2500 saved in mas and 2000 in my personal savings. I was paying 300 towards the mas a paycheck to build the money since I wont start paying for interest until I actually have my bike. But I got advised to lower that and pay more on my loan because I am paying interest on that. So I raised my loan payment from the minimum 150 a month to 300 a paycheck and brought my mas payment down to 150 a paycheck. My goal is to have at least 10000 down on my mas payment and then as much as I can in my personal savings account.Then to be honest the savings account isnt good for me because I dont have enough money discipline to not take money out of my saving. The only reason I have 2000 saved up is because I put it in a certificate and didnt want to get penalized for taking it out. But my certificate expires in August and I want to start another one but dont want to put all my savings in it because I might need the money  <response>: What are your real expenses? With your current expenses you should have plenty of money left over.How did you spend last months pay? Track your dollars and see where they went.
