I am not gonna indulge on how much my income is (but I do work in the IT industry) but I can tell you I barely use any money I get from my actual job on buying games. 

95% of the money I use for buying games come from gift cards I get from work (PSN, Steam wallet, Amazon, etc) and money I get from sponsors.

 

Anyways, I started counting how much I've been spending since 2017.

----------------------

2017 (363 games/content) - $781.89


2018 (646 games/content) - 
$1839.75

What I have spent in 2019 so far....

GRAND TOTAL: $236.19

I wish I could be more organized with my money. You budget yourself really well by the looks of it. What's your secret?

I make good money but due to my spending habits not much of it gets put away. I also have a very expensive cost of living what with medical bills and children, and I live in an area that is fairly expensive (my 2 bedroom apartment costs more than $1450 per month, if I recall). Next month I'll be making my final payment towards my daughter's pre school, which has costed us $400 per month for the last two years. After that she'll be going to public school, which is so cheap it's not even funny. Freeing up $400 each month is going to be so freaking nice.
