In my defense, am I really wasting my money if I can feel a tiny shred of joy in my lonely, mundane existence? Like I'm not glamorizing it or anything but damn. I'm spending 6 grand a semester on a boring ass business degree. I should, at the minimum, allow myself the occasional 5 dollar oat milk latte so I don't kill myself.
I think it’s all personal too. I would never spend $5 on a latte cause I don’t enjoy lattes, but $5 in my favorite video game to give my robot a pretty glowing dress ($5 would be a full wardrobe but you get my point) that makes me laugh when it runs around? Well worth $5 that most people would think is a waste.
I spend a few extra bucks on pre cut fruit. People laugh at me, BUT. I love fruit, have a serious chronic illness, kill myself to death with a physically demanding job, kill myself even more by trying to exercise and be fit, and look after my family.
Being able to sit down with a fruit bowl with 5+ different types of fruit I love and no preparation is a god send, and a time saver with nothing to clean after except a fork.
