3 Biggest Waste Money that I can’t live without

Unused gym memberships

Subscriptions to services I rarely (if ever) use

Insurance, when as soon as you make a claim, your premium increases

Why I think insurance is wasting money is because when the claim is demonstrably not your fault but it still goes up. Like I'm sorry fate decided to fuck me with circumstances completely beyond my control, can you not fuck me for that too? Your literal sole purpose is to solve my financial issues during this not elevate it. I pay you to stop me from being fucked with.

Anyone feel me?

... Read moreMany individuals grapple with unexpected expenses that seem more like burdens than benefits. Three major contenders often come up in discussions about money-wasting habits are unused gym memberships, seldom-used subscriptions, and insurance premiums that rise after claims. Unused gym memberships are a classic example; despite the initial excitement of getting fit, many people let their memberships collect dust as life gets busy. Not only is this a financial drain, but it can also create feelings of guilt or disappointment about fitness goals not met. On the other hand, subscriptions to streaming services, magazines, or other offerings often go unnoticed on bank statements, effectively wasting money without users even realizing it. Consolidating subscriptions or using them more intentionally can help mitigate this waste. Lastly, insurance premiums can be particularly frustrating; many consumers find it hard to reconcile the costs incurred when claims, often due to no fault of their own, lead to even higher premiums. It's essential to evaluate these costs and seek transparent providers who prioritize customer service and fair pricing. Understanding these aspects can empower consumers to take control of their finances and make more informed decisions regarding their expenditures.

Weddings!!!! I loved my wedding and don’t regret it but like..why?!?! It’s basically a big performance for the guests. You spend all this money and time planning for it to be done in a few hours. You feed all those people. You provide music, a venue, favors… at the end it’s not even about the two becoming 1😭
