There's quite a bit of good information on this page about how to spend money on yourself, but there's one important thing missing: how to give money away. I think the most difficult money-related issue I've had to deal with is deciding how much of my income I'm going to keep for myself and how much I'm going to give to those who need it more than I do. When you come out of school and land right in the middle class, as most professional developers do, it's pretty easy to take care of your basic needs. What's more difficult is balancing your (often frivolous) wants and needs in the present, with your needs in the future (retirement), with the basic needs of others. I don't see many people talking about how to do this in a responsible and morally satisfying way.
