Unfortunately for me though, I am trying to watch my weight a little, so I didn't go buckwild buying gourmet chocolates and candies - but I did get some nougat thing that looks like a cigar. I don't really like nougat, so perhaps it will last longer than two breaths.
Good for you that you can financially afford to buy things that you "don't really like". Financially I cannot even afford to buy (or at least to maintain) what I like (or would like) (rather love).
I am not envious or anything like that. I just/only want to break out of my bad financial situation. To avoid having to pay the high rent and the also high regular, monthly bills, which I cannot even afford on my own in the winter (because of heating expenses).
Have a nice day and have a nice weekend.
All the best. Greetings and much love from Hungary.
That is an interesting take on that sentence. My wife likes nougat, but she doesn't have a sweet tooth like I do.
Life can suck a lot for many people. What has been interesting though for me is, that many people in my life far preferred it when I was the one unable to pay my bills. The other thing that has been interesting, is that regardless of what I have experienced or what it has taken to get to today, I am expected to feel guilty in some way for being above the poverty line now.
I wish everyone the best in their life, but me having a little more to spend, doesn't take away from others having more or less - it doesn't work that way.
Hopefully you are able to find ways to get more of what you want too :)
I know that feeling well and it has only been in the last two or three years that I have been able to go to the shop and not have to pray a little that my card goes through.
And yes, I fully agree - we should all be able to live with dignity and a large part of that is economic availability. I am looking forward to a time things are not like they are in the current economy for so many people.
