I must not buy. Buying is the purse-killer. Buying is the little-dopamine that brings total bankruptcy. I will face my wishlist. I will permit the limited time sale to pass over me and through me. And when it has expired I will turn the inner eye to see it’s impulses. When the mania has gone there will be nothing. Only $ will remain.

Never gonna afford anything worth saving for so might as well spend each paycheque.
For some reason I imagine Caleb Hammer screaming a response to this.
Terrible mindset and straight up wrong. Start saving money.
To buy what?
An emergency fund for emergencies. Save up for new tires for your car when they go flat on the highway. Medical bills for when you get injured and put out of work for a week. For when your water main gets clogged from all that bacon grease you pour down the sink, and you have to pay $2,000 to get the pipes dug up and cleaned out.
Save for a better future where you can own a house and some land. Save up to travel somewhere you’ve never been so you can learn about a different culture and better help how you think about the world. There’s an endless list of beneficial things you can do with money if you actually save it up instead of short-sightedly spending every paycheck you get right as it hits your bank account.
