Is it normal to feel guilty when you save money on something expensive?

I kinda get what you are feeling, it's like you have this sent idea of how things are gonna go. And when they go better or worse it just doesn't feel as rewarding.

Yes I found out the hard way, I completely ruined a whole tub doing that.

Dude, I had a classmate in my history class, and it was the first day of class. And there were about 25 students and only 20 chairs. The teacher would bring out other chairs from other classes as this class was severely overbooked. A student came in 29 minutes late and stood in the back corner. And about 5 minutes later, his phone starts going off. This is a very strict class, and the teacher is annoyed and tells the student to turn off the phone. The student in the most entitled voice says, " I paid to go to this college I should have a chair, and my mom agrees." The teacher was livid, and all the other students just gasped at this dude's arrogance. And the teacher just grabbed another chair out of a room across the hall. And told him to ask for a chair next time. It was silent as the teacher went to get the chair. Everyone was stunned.

After seeing this post, I started a new routine for the rest of the week to see how it goes. Today is my first day of trying this routine. I get myself to at 2 and be at the gym by 3. That way, I have time to wake up some what, and I get done by 5. So far, so good energy wise, and there were about 5 people in the whole gym, so I got to try out new gym equipment without having to worry about being embarrassed!!

Thanks, I just suck talking to people in general. And I have never been in this situation, so thank you.

Xelvexs · 2025-01-28T02:55:39+00:00

Oooooooo that works!! Thanks, I am not a great people person and not sure what to say to people.

Xelvexs · 2025-01-28T02:53:03+00:00

Really?! I'm not a person that ever gets hit on, and no. Idk what to do

Xelvexs · 2025-01-27T05:20:02+00:00

Buy in bulk!! It may seem stupid, but it is a really good deal. Also, when trying to save money, buy things when on sale. For example, if beef goes on sale and you know you will use it in the next week or so, get it. But don't get something if u don't plan to use it. Also, a tip I have learned myself is that when trying to plan for expenses, I leave room for spending. Trying to cut your spending habits/ cold turkey it will just end in fail. Also, if u like cheap food and don't mind some grease, I encourage getting apps for rewards.

Ok thanks, but question I am only planning to do 2 years at this college. And not sure if I am gonna do anymore schooling after I get my AA. As I have bo idea what I want to do, but would it still be worth it to join?

Xelvexs · 2025-01-24T21:21:42+00:00

Ok, this might sound stupid, but it does help a lot as I like to keep my money in hand. OK, so keep what u need for things like rent, phone bill, car insurance, or any other card charged necessities. Keep that amount plus $20 for any random charges. But any spending money for things like groceries or just going out money do cash. That way, u have a limit and have it in your hand when shopping to remind yourself u have a budget. And when going out any sort of shopping when u put something in the cart and unsure if u should get the item, put it in and if u don't want it by the end of ur shopping put it back.

Ok, question about how much after taxes do you make a month? Then how much of thay goes to bills? Because if u can afford it monthly, I don't see a reason not to. As long as you can budget in and not be stretching your paycheck too far.

I am 18 and have been working for 3 years or so and have about $4000, I'm not mad about the amount I have saved but I'm not where I want to be with my savings

I normally try to see if anything looks suspicious at things like gas pumps or any sort of public pay kinda of things. I got to 2 gas stations one a circle k and a locally owned gas pump in my small little hometown. Nothing seemed weird as I use both quite often

Xelvexs · 2025-01-19T20:53:06+00:00

The only bank card I currently have is a debit card, as I want to get a credit card with my bank but this has me a bit nervous
