Why is money at hand difficult to hold? I usually find it difficult to keep track of money anytime I have cash at hand, I make plans to hold money, but It never stays because something always demands the money, it is even so bad now that money kept in my account is also now being affected due to expenses. This is not something that happens to only me, I know that because of how money can easily be spent, many people now decide to avoid having cash, avoid taking ATM cards from their banks and also avoid activating USSD or internet banking, but is that really a long term solution? I blame myself a lot for spending so much and being irresponsible with money, but in your opinion, do you think that the soceity is contributing to the high and many expenses making money not to stay or is it just a bad habit I have?
Money is difficult to hold because a lot of things created these days are meant to take money out of your hands and into their pockets. You have to pay for a Netflix subscription and a gym membership. We are so busy these days that we hardly cook our own meals, so we have to pay for eating out. So many things are outsourced nowadays, so you pay for whatever it is that you have outsourced. In fact, we may get to the point of paying for the air we breathe (I hope it doesn't happen). One other thing you should note is that if you live in a country where inflation is happening, you would notice that you spend more money than you used to spend on regular stuff. The two best ways I know to control this and have some money with you are to get more jobs and watch what you spend.
