Poverty is like quicksand: once you’re in, struggling only sinks you faster. Late fees, overdraft fees, higher priced smaller quantities, high interest rates… being broke becomes your biggest expense and full-time job. Always paying for yesterday, never able to build a future.
@babadookspinoza identify ur need/requirement & spend according to them. Don't fall in trap of corporates. Present and future ll be good
@GOKUSHRM that's easy to say, but the reality is "my requirement is food and rent, and my income is insufficient for that" and then what? "Just get a roommate." Have you seen roommates? Have you tried cosigning a lease with someone when you couldn't each afford the whole rent amount, in America, lately?
@wilbr I hav seen worse in my life & that period taught me about my needs, now even good amount of money I still eat 2 times a day, I can eat 4/5 times a day but t don't. I can afford 2 iPhone but still I'm using 4+ year old device. I'm not living in america but basic needs for a person almost same.
@GOKUSHRM so you live in a completely different world from the one OP described
@wilbr as I said, I know my requirements. Less is more for me
You need to make a list of necessary & unnecessary things in ur life (daily routine list) thn slowly slowly stop using unnecessary things. It will take some time but not impossible to do. Soon u will see the change in ur life too.
