Story filed: The complexity of having to spend one's own money
Dear beloved reader, don't you hate it when something you want costs 'money'? And, in order to obtain it one must spend that hard earned currency. I'll tell you what, it's hard being a scrooge in this day and age. For instance, how am I supposed to save up enough money to be able to fill a whole bank vault so I can go swimming in it, like Scrooge McDuck if I have to spend it on annoying things like food, hygiene products, taxes (I have had to sadly pay taxes in my first job ever) and basic necessities, not to mention literally everything else? Circling back to what I was saying before, if I come across an item I really want to own, that happens to be on FB Marketplace, ebay, or some other website - I'm heartbroken that it's actually going to cost me money in order to obtain said desired item, and alongside that I'm bummed to have to pay more for postage etc, like..... come on! I hate it when I have to spend my own money as I would rather save it up. Ok, anyway I think you get the idea, I'm going to stop rambling now. Just be smart with how you spend your money.
Until next time
