I have decided

Jump to Comments

I have had a new obsession to reduce debt and to start saving.  I find this extraordinary because I hate numbers.  I can feel my anxiety rising just by looking at too many charts with numbers on it.

I just need to keep an account of myself on what I do.

I have some goals to live a more frugal life.

I normally do this quite well.  But.  I do love shopping.  I do get a rush when I purchase something and it does make me happy.  For a while I do feel like a better person.  More successful.  A very deceptive feeling.

My first small goal is to have less coffees  with my friends.  I will see a friend at the shops and we decide to have a coffee together.  Often this is quite early, like a bit after nine am.  So often we haven’t had breakfast so we have that too.  One week I think I spend about $17:00.  Would add up to quite a bit.

So here I go :)
