RE: Blocking the Spend Limit

in LeoFinance2 years ago

In my opinion, consumption and saving are actually the same. Only use what we need and leave what we don't need.

This is the challenge, because the "needs" keep coming, but are they really needs? This is why making the division at the start can help, because it means taking out to act - a loss.

I have to enjoy my life, a happy life, by enjoying the things I deserve to enjoy with my family. My fragile barrier.

Perhaps everyone has always felt this way, but what has changed is the amount and cost of things we think we deserve. "I deserve an overseas holiday" - when not too long ago, it was "I deserve to have a day off". Quite a difference.

Yes, you are absolutely right, Sir. Quite a difference.
Needs a vacation, but makes a gaping hole to drain something deeper. You just need a vacation, you don't need something that makes you "tired" due to expensive holidays. Often, it's just a matter of prestige, and no one really needs it.

The use of a division in the beginning to measure the level of need and commit to what the division plans often fails, right?

If I understood what you said correctly - the division isn't the issue, it is the inability to evaluate our own needs in a way that we become active enough to commit.
