Merdeka yay.... ohhh no, BORING day!
Yes, I will get broke very very soon since I eat there very regularly for my lunch. In fact, I am pretty much broke now.
My mom read a book about managing finances and talked to me about the writer's urge it's readers to live below what they could afford. Like say, if you could really afford a Rm2,500 handphone but just prefer to go for a rm250 one. I think that is a really good and useful way to save your hard-earned money. I for one, am not really living within my means. I don't spend a lot but eating at Yee's everyday is certainly not saving money for me. If I were to live within my means, I would be driving a second hand kancil or some car that would only need say rm 300 per month as monthly installment. If I were to pay for my own car, I would be seriously selling the one I am driving now as it would make me so bloody damn broke. I should be very thankful that all this while my parents are paying for it.
However, I am thinking of taking the responsibilities of paying for my own car now. If so, I would be asking my mom to sell my current car and I will look for some second-handed old car. Do you think it's worth it? It's good to be responsible for paying for your own expenses right? Am I thinking the right way and doing the right thing here? I think so. Nobody will lose anything, in fact my parents can save that money they have been paying for my car every month. However, my decision is not finalized yet.
