You're right, a lot of people underestimate the disadvantages. This is majorly because sometimes they're lost in the advantages and the prospect it gives them
Compromise is an important part of decision making. The hard aspect is choosing what to compromise. Present or future?
I find the compromise of the future and the present to be really dicey and that's why I shy away from making that decision, but I think our future is important even if we think otherwise
I'll always choose the future over the present. There are benefits to delayed gratification, instant gratification carries long term consequences that are not always good for us.
Hahaha, I also choose the future, but I make sure my present is also catered for to a sizeable extent, but the priorities are building towards a comfortable future.
I think that's the way. Betting more on the future than the present. I think having the bare minimum to go by is okay for me in the present.
