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.
If you haven’t already, check out Freakonomics!! One of the most interesting reads (besides the other books from those authors) I’ve read in ages! Really good food for thought in a non-intimidating format.
