13287743, I have become financially responsible - WTF has become of my true self? Posted by handle, Sat Sep-22-18 08:22 PM
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?

13287861, You know what's better than buying some new stuff? Posted by flipnile, Mon Sep-24-18 10:03 AM
Keeping your money in the bank, and using your old stuff with that "ain't worrying about shit" grin on your face.

13287924, ^^The opposite Posted by handle, Mon Sep-24-18 12:04 PM
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?
