Do you feel guilty when you buy new sh1t?

[MoveForward]

I bought some sneakers and cologne but everytime I buy things for myself I have buyers remorse? Am I the only one?

 

[Child_Of_God]

Nope.

According to The Coli, buying something as simple as groceries is an indulgence and a waste of money.

You should be eating nothing but ramen and beans every night until you get your money up.

Yes. Cause I know I don’t really need it. I’ve got clothes that are three years old with the tag still attached. Yet I still buy more clothes that doesn’t really add value to my life online shopping is the devil . I’m getting better though. I put a huge chunk of my pay cheque in a savings account (that I don’t have a card for) and only leave money for necessities and a little for socialising on my main card, that’s helped me a lot. You should try it.

That's low key the thing... I feel like because I'm black I shouldn't be spending money on unproductive things. I did pay all ot my bills for February and I surpassed my savings goal for January... I had an extra stack to get me through until this Friday and I went to the mall just to walk around at lunch and I had a moment of weakness.

Depends. How much you got saved? Was that all the money you had? Are you paycheck to paycheck?

If its something that makes me happy and adds meaning to my life then I don't mind.

But I usually get buyers remorse because I'm really frugal and a big saver.

I only spend money on books, video games, good food and travel.

Only when I spend like $50+ on alcohol and end up drinking it all in one night. I know I'm not the only one too. nikkas really put those bottles on top of the refrigerator because they feel guilty about all that money spent on nothing

Yea but only because when I buy stupid shyt I feel I shoulda got something for my kids instead. No guilt for the wife she be buying shyt all the time I don’t even notice.

Only time I don’t is tax time. Always get over 10k. I take my chunk out and pretty much buy everything I want for the year. Last year I got my 65 inch 4K, Xbox one x, and clothes. No guilt at all those little fukkers owe me that much. So does my wife with her Peggy bundy spending ass

 

[ColdSlither]

I only feel remorse when I buy cheap shyt or I don't know where my money went. For stuff I want, nah. Besides, I chose photography as a hobby. If I felt guilty about buying new stuff, I wouldn't have a hobby.

 

[Mowgli]

My son asked me to make him a peanut butter and jelly

I made it and handed it to him

This boy said

"You forgot the dish"

I knew then this boy didn't want for much and I could buy whatever the fukk I felt

 

[The Intergalactic Koala]

Probably the new Warcraft expansion since I barely have time to play it, but when I do I change my mind on such matters

 

[Obreh Winfrey]

Am I supposed to ? I save my 10%, contribute 12% to my 401k, pay extra on my student loans, pay all of my bills on time, and PAWG responsibly. I can spend my access l excess without care.

 

[old pig]

na...life is short...$$$ is made to be spent...can’t take it w/ you...not saying don’t save and shyt but I’m damn sure not gonna feel guilty about buying shyt I want/can afford

You know what.From now on I will walk to work and take cold showers until I am touching six figures.

 

[Rawtid]

Never. Most of the time I'm saving a little each pay to blow on myself. I hardly ever shop on a whim.
