Yeah too many people live beyond their means. So many things we act like we gotta have but really dont. It was a shitty lifestyle but I knew a guy who supportrd himself and 3 other adults off like 10 dollars a hour. Had no phone no internet no cable/satellite anything like that though.

Its worse these days with all these things entertainment wise that are monthly subs and for some reason people act like their isnt cheaper options for phones. My phone was 50 bucks and my monthly plan is like 36 dollars.

Kills me when overtime becomes big at my job and all of a sudden co workers got a brand new dodge charger or something. Like what ya gonna do if the overtime drys up?

It really is ridiculous. I bought a 2005 sunfire for 500 bucks back in like 2011 and I still drive it. It had under 60 thousand kilometers and came with two brand new sets of tires on rims.

The year after I got it I started working out of town making really really good money and working huge hours and everyone was like dude get a new car... long story short that job lasted 8 months before the idiot owner fucked everything up and everyone was left hanging.

Now it's 10 years later and I still drive the same car and besides brakes, tires and routine maintenance it hasn't cost me a cent.

I'd rather have a comfort zone than spend shit all the time and if I'd bought a new truck or some shit when I had that job 80% of what I made woulda been gone on the truck and I never coulda afforded braces and jaw surgery when I ended up needing them so my teeth would be fucked by now and id be broker than I am and have a truck thars worth essentially nothing relatively speaking.
