I have a horrendous money spending problem... · 8:34am Nov 5th, 2018
Hello, I haven't been on in a while, and I'm feeling really horrible, I don't know who else to go to, But I need help....
I have this issue about being unsure/un-confident all the time, and it affects the way I communicate and think about things. anyways I just feel dumb, and I'm really starting to hate myself a lot for it.
I've probably lit almost $2000 on fire throughout my whole life, because I feel like I want those new "things" and then I always end up buying, and just not liking it. I always end up returning soooo much stuff it's not even funny, Sometimes I can't even return those things to get my money back, and then that's how I always get screwed over.. And then after that I start feeling really horrible about myself.
That money really could of gone towards anything, Like, buying groceries, food, gas, necessities, or even donating to a childrens hospital or the homeless....
For real I need some help badly before I throw more of my hard earned money from the countless number of hours I work everyday for down the drain...
Here’s one tip. Use cash. If you use a card it doesn’t feel like your spending anything. If you physically hand over the cash it clicks in your head
Don't feel bad, everyone wastes money. There are financial counselors who can help you budget.
