and if I think i need to buy something I'll give it a couple weeks and see if I still need/want it

then I think about the value of a dollar being $1 if you spend it but infinite if you keep it which makes it really easy to keep putting disposable cash into my investment/retirement accounts

yeah

in my view, every dollar invested is 3 cents a year I can spend for life

No point in impulse buying expensive shit

Or even cheap shit

I do not buy anything except food

I have no TV, I sleep on the floor, I have a guitar I bought for $200 more than 10 years ago and that's about it

also a gym membership

Get a bed

the money that has flown through my hands has almost all ended up invested, the tiny remainder has bought me high protein food and a gym membership and that's basically it

no, beds are a waste of money and floor space

require money to buy, more money for mattress, then a bigger apartment to compensate for the space you lost

It's your life dogg

I don't even do a floor futon anymore, I just stack random blankets

I wish I had come to the understanding of money and consumer culture that I have now, earlier, and avoided some stupid mistakes

don't we both

I recently dropped some decent coin on one of those memory foam matresses, an Ikea one so not super expensive, and it really has improved my sleep qualiry

my wife is actually entirely fine with the floor thing

Mine is fine with a second hand mattress on the floor

but partially that's because we sleep in the basement and the ceiling is low.

I spend a lot more money married than I would if I were still single, because of her

yeah

I figure because of the looming spectre of death you might as well do whatever you want

I got really lucky, mine is totally fine with me being an ultra barbarian

But I ultimately don't mind because she's a great investment.

I will never die

well yeah if death comes for all of us, what do I care whether or not I have a $10,000 BeautyFart mattress?

I'll have them put one in my coffin

^

I'll buy a bariatric fat people coffin the size of a queen bed and put a mattress in it

lol

my thinking is that even though the specter of death looms, fags are always trying to tell you through tv and pop music that your youth is the best part of your life

It's like shit I may be dead but at least I'm comfy

when in reality, post highschool until 40 is the shittiest part of life

have you guys seen those fat people coffins?

so I'd rather just be fucking rich post 40 and i'll spend it then

not if you're in medicine lol

those are the slave years

see: why I'm trying to quit

I am never comfortable anyway, I am always sore
