Do aspie's have money/budget problems

Hi,

   I have never been able the save money for very long and have been told that having aspergers doesn't help.  Is this true /false  the bank is always in overdrawn on an overdraft limit to £350. And being umeployed doesn't help, and what makes it worse is that buying on ebay is so easy to use that I buy all sorts of things even if I don't have the money in the bank..   

Yours Peter 0003

  • I have the same problem.

    For me it was made worse by once having a well paid job (Software Engineer), which got me access to a sizeable Credit Card debt and a not insignificant overdraft.

    I'm paying off the Credit Card debt now (very slowly), but the overdraft just sits there, costing me money every month.

    And I too find it all too easy to spend money on 'stuff', and all too hard to budget.
