How to deal with being broke, even if you work 60+ hour weeks?


Im 1 of 2 people working a full time job in my household and in New York state, its really rough at times, sometimes i manage to save money and buy what i want, but not too often, and from time to time i sell everything i have of fair value, hoping i can save some of the money

But it always ends up going towards bills and i start all over again, and i honestly hate that its like i have nothing to show for working my butt off, sometimes for over 60 hour weeks (at least 10 hours a day, Monday through Thursday is usual, but sometimes i work Friday and rarely work Saturdays)

I mean, i have braces, and its been so long since i should of got braces in the first place (11, nearly 12 years ago, wasn't in my familys budget), and im happy to at least have started on the journey towards a nice smile, but sometimes it seems like such an expensive drag

Maybe if i didn't have braces i would be able to save some money, but its hard to say for sure (sometimes ill have $800, but the energy bill and water bill plus my mortgage eat that up and then some)

I would like to buy a decent watch ($2000-$3000), if i could afford it without getting completely broke, but i guess i will have to keep maintaining a balance between whst i get paid and funds for a while longer
