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?

    I don’t buy things just for buyings sake, but things I actually enjoy. Look, we can all die at any moment. There can be an accident or so. It’s important to enjoy life. If you just save all your money and don’t enjoy some of it and you die unexpectedly, saving it was a huge waste. You would have held back for nothing.
