When I was in university I had a best pal who got a credit card early on and started paying e v e r y t h i n g with it. That lead to him being in debt 2000 - 2500 euros every single month. He would spend much more than what he earned.
I on the other hand almost always pay cash. I see and feel the cash that I pay, so I have a good "feeling" of what I have and can afford. This works pretty well so far.
