I first,
In the lunch last December, i said with my wife " I will withdraw 1000$ for buy a new computer", she said yes and...now it still not advent in my house.
i still wait my computer, i love it, i miss it.
And you?, what's your plan? Has it been realistic yet?
Comparatively speaking I was saving for a computer and thanks to what I made in 2017 summer and how it went up in price during December I cashed out and got myself the top of the line alienware laptop. I am so thankful for that purchase because buying that really saved me, right now dollar is increasing in value in my country and bitcoin dropped insanely so I would have less money and laptop would have costed more money, I would have been in double loss.
Thankfully I always saved for a goal, I spend as much as I need and I put the rest into some savings so when the time comes I do whatever I saved for. That way I can honestly say that I have saved for this and than go out and spend that money, if you do not have any goals to save that's usually spent on the most useless things.
