Unless it’s an immediate, justifiable need, say washing machine breaks down and using a laundromat for six months would eat up money better spent for the washing machine, this is just a good idea, anyway. Marketing companies are evil and sell based on implanting false and mutable emotional whims, the time spent considering gives those projected mutable emotions time to clear.
I’m really sorry about the hardships you face that are representative of an ongoing development over the last decades.
Moving more and ever more wealth into the pockets of the Epstein class is making that wealth missing elsewhere - the people who create that wealth by working are devoid of it.
I must have made it sound harder than it is, but my household income is well above the poverty line, and I don’t have any kids. Even with that financial flexibility though, I still can’t afford to spend recklessly.
Let’s put it this way, my last big “non-necessary” purchase was a firearm, and I literally reviewed it and considered it for 3 years. For a less than 1000 dollar purchase.
I think it’s hard enough and harder than it had to be.
There’s plenty of wealth, food, housing, etc. but it’s not fairly distributed and the distribution just gets more and more skewed due to tax rules and other regulations in favor of the richᵀᴹ.
Oh man, a shopping spree… Unless it’s food, I don’t make a purchase without considering it for at least 6 months before hand.
