"I have become financially responsible - WTF has become of my true self?"


          

I have become financially responsible - WTF has become of my true self?

I have the means to get into debt to buy things I want - but I have not do so.

I could go into debt and get a new car - but going to stay with the paid off car that's in good condition.

I could have gotten that 77" OLED TV I want - but I'm staying with the old 65" OLED.

I could have gotten an iPhone XS Max - for $15 more a month - and 12 more monthly payments - but kept the iPhone 8 Plus.

I could have gotten the 1TB Samsung 970 Pro M.2 NVME PCIe 3.0 MLC SSD - but staying with my old 512GB SATA SLC SanDisk.

I could have gotten the Nvidia 2080 Ti - stayed with my Nvidia 1080 Ti.

Note:I did by the new Apple Watch 4- but I sold my old Apple Watch 3 and the upgrade only cost me $140.

I feel like I'm betraying my younger - true self

What's next? Not eating candy and cereal at every meal?

Keeping your money in the bank, and using your old stuff with that "ain't worrying about shit" grin on your face.

TBH the fact that you're even a mod here fits squarely within Jag's narrative of OK-sanctioned aggression, bullying, and toxicity. *shrug*

I'm saying I could - in my nerdy way - "stunt" but I'm not.

And I feel that if you took a version of me from 1988 in a time machine he'd demand to know who had poisoned my mind?
