Dilemma
I don't usually buy a lot of stuff especially when it's unnecessary or it does not fit in my budget. If my budget is 500Php and the price of what I'll buy is more than 500, then I won't buy it, no matter how I like it. I've been very strict to myself when it comes to buying stuff ever since I started working as a student assistant.
Now that I'm already working and I earn enough money to buy all the things I want, I still find it hard to spend money. Not that I'm obsessed with money or what, it's just that I feel like there's something worth saving money for. Though I still have no idea what that is. Well, sometimes I wonder what my future would be.. How expensive the cost of living would be after 5 or 10 years? How much do I have to save in case I want to go out of the country for vacation? Things like that.. Is 20 years old too young to be thinking about stuff like that?
I wasn't born in a rich family, you know. Actually, I am the only child in our family, and yet we face financial problems all time time. So maybe that's why I always have second thoughts before spending. It has become a fear, I think.
There's so many things I really want to buy.. So many places I want to go to.. But I'm scared of what my future would be if I give in to these "wants" because I'm too scared that spending for those stuff will affect our future. Oh whyyyyy
