You can spend minutes, hours, days, weeks, or even months over-analyzing a situation; trying to put the pieces together, justifying what could've, would've happened… or you can just leave the pieces on the floor and move on.

I really want to go out and spend lots of money n then keep paying for my debts the rest of the year!!! It's so hard to find comfort buying things. I wish I didn't spend that much but guess I'm just a girly nb that does girly stuff~~

I'll ask a friend if they don't want to go out with me ^^ I've been meaning to meet them for a while now!!!

This is fucking disgusting. Never forget. Red? Blue? In the end they all serve the State. They will never be on your side and gleefully murder civilians of other countries.

Just a Thought...

Here's a little lesson I taught at physical therapy yesterday. A few therapists and patients were discussing the woeful performance of the Pittsburgh Pirates. They lamented that the team never really gets better. Now, it's well known that the team owner doesn't spend a lot (in relative terms) of money on the team. So, I explained that if they really wanted the team to get better, they should stop watching them; stop buying their merchandise, and stop going to their games. The owner has shown that he will give you what you accept. If you accept a team that struggles -- year after year -- to remain in the middle of the standings, that's what the owner will give -- while still making money for himself. I told them this also translates to shopping. Does it annoy you when you go to Walmart, and they only have one cashier on duty -- while having 10-20 "self-checkout" lanes open? You're in a hurry, so you ring up your items (sans any kind of employee discount for doing their job). All while being watched by one employee and multiple cameras to ensure you're not cheating them by not ringing up every item. Well, it's the same principle. If you show Walmart that you'll do their job for them, they'll give you what you'll accept. Why put more cashiers on duty if the people will do it themselves? But, if -- and I know this would be an inconvenience for a day, or two -- if 27 shoppers lined up at the one manned cash register, and refused to use the self-checkout lane, it would force Walmart to open another lane. And, if it happened again the next day, Walmart might get the message. It's just a thought.

Comic #328: Spending on yourself - Website links: Here! What is the most expensive thing I've ever spent on -Just me-... well schooling! More of a need than want. Having been poor for so long in my adult life, making big expensive decisions is like pulling teeth. You can only hope the 'self investment' pays for itself later ʕ´ಠᴥಠ`ʔ

Can you just tell me that the big financial spending I just did was ok? It's a health program that I know will be good for me overall, but dropping a lot of money is scary.

My sweet summer child... it's going to be just fine. "Health is wealth," as they say, and you could do far worse things with your money than invest in your health.

No forgiveness is needed. We hereby forbid you from feeling bad.

We know it can be scary to spend a big chunk of money all at once. So we have a little bit of advice for absolving yourself of this guilt:
