Financial lessons from insatiable use of money💸😭

The money runs out before the end of the month, teaching us stronger than any book.

It makes it known that "little money" is not as scary as "don't know where the money is gone." Today's emotional use is its stress. In the next few days, since then, we started writing down every baht we could use to estimate ourselves. The solution we really use is

1. Set a budget "extravagant, but there must be a scope."

Do not stop yourself 100% because it will break, but tell yourself that this month is all you can do.

2. Ask yourself before paying every time, "Will this piece still be needed in seven days?"

If you want → buy

If not →, the money will survive another day.
