Just last week I stopped myself from spending around $1,000 on premium gym memberships, brand new shoes, a $100 ed hardy cap, a $100 armani t-shit, etc
I realized that I could just get these things when I actually make a lot of money and have a large income. By buying things now that I don't really need, I'm simply delaying my goals and slowing down my progress.
As it stands now, I have more money than the average 17 year old, so why would I swindle this opportunity to get even further ahead!
So my question is for everyone, but more specifically for MJ, Russ, Runum, etc.
When you began, how did you determine what you would spend on things that you really didn't need? Or were you simply a miser until you sold your first company/RE deal?
I know the answer to this question is something along the lines of "everyone is different", but that's not what I'd like to know. I simply want to know how you went about spending discretionary income in the past, and how your perception of what discretionary income was as you progressed and made more money.
For the people (like me) who haven't yet achieved a massive amount of financial success, what kind of "pocket money" do you guys keep?
Ex: Spend $5-$10 out of every $100 you earn, or $200/month to spend on stupid things.
Thanks :smxB:
