you know – this is always represented in the news/etc as ‘a starbucks a day’ but i mean moreso a gadget or a shirt. i’m splurging on deodorant right now. is that immoral? are you meant to have a mostly austere budget until you’re a boomer with a house and a fence?

so uhh what’s the last little thing you bought to not go insane?

    If you’re worried the best thing to do is make a proper budget. Make sure every penny you earn is accounted for in there.

    Give yourself a certain amount in the budget to buy random stuff each month. Let it roll over each month so if you don’t spend it all you have more next month.

    Removes any guilt as you know everything is covered.
