Saving money on food is a good way to make it, but also look at the other crap you might spend money on
Gym memberships? Very important to stay healthy, but do you really need that foofoo gym with towel service and 30 types of cardio machines?
Cable TV? Showtime, Cinemax, HBO? Drop that and stick with basic cable
Cell phones? Drop the extra crap like unlimited text msgs

The advice is not horrible if you are talking about year 1 pay.

If any Captains are reading this thread - be a professional and buy a beer or a dinner for your new FO. Yeah, the economy sucks, but buying a drink or two goes a long way.
As a Captain, I can't tell you how many FOs I buy drinks for who say "Your the first Captain to buy in months......".

I became a pilot because I like to fly. I couldn't care less about the city.

A positive thread humming along nicely and you have to be critical. Pretty typical for you. Lot's of good advice here. Live within your means and try to maintain that when you upgrade. I did and I'm putting money away a nice amount every month. I manage to get out and really see the good cities we visit fairly inexpensively.
