title: Permission Denied when editing .bash_profile
body: <p>I'm still learning the CLI and the ins and outs of it, especially this .bash_profile. I feel overwhelmed with what I'm learning about this.</p>
  
  <p>Anyways, I can access .bash_profile. If I do <code>nano ~/.bash_profile</code> then the file appears and I'm free to edit. And then I tried addingin the line I'm supposed to include:</p>
  
  <p><code>export PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/mysql/bin:$PATH"</code></p>
  
  <p>However, when I try to save the file (or whatever .bash_profile is), I get the following error: <code>[ Error writing /home/myname.bash_profile Permission denied ]</code></p>
