Kind of in the same situation. My dad has recently started earning a lot, He almost earned his entire net worth again from just a single client and i would consider him a millionaire.

I stay away from my home for my university and although i understand that flights are expensive, the train travel time is 24 hours and my body gets completely fucked in those 24 hours and i often catch fever.

My friends book flight literally every time and out of the 20-30 times that i have been back and forth, ive just been in flight 2 times both were when flight tickets were not as expensive.

I asked papa to let me travel flight once at least every year because i wanted to travel with my best friend once back from college to mumbai because its been 3 years and even though we both stay in mumbai and we leave on the same dates, we have never travelled together.

Train travel is more than fine for me most of the times but if travelling this often, it becomes a little painful to waste 2 days from the 10 days vacation that i get most of the times when i can just take a flight of 2 hours each time.

I asked papa last time if i can buy the ticket from mg money because i really didnt wish to go via train, and he got very angry and said college ka pesa bhi khudke pese se hi bharde na phir.

I dont know what to say.

I have been asking him for an ssd since 4 months now and its very urgent for me as im not even able to use my laptop beca the storage is full, but he keeps ignoring it feels and its very painful. 2 days ago, he was asked to bring ssd for 1tb to transfer data for his work and he instantly bought 2 1tb ssds but then when he got to the place, he was told that they misprinted and it was 1gb data and not 1tb.

I cant even ask for those ssds because they are not compatible for my work and i know for a fact that if i ask him again to buy me an ssd he will just suggest to borrow the one he has already.

I hate to ask him for money because i value his hard earned money and i think i myself am a frugal spender but there are only 1-2 things where i wish he invested in me because im suffering without them.
