Like I told you before...

...have had to cut down on spending to fix a tax debt.

This is what I've learned from this experience:

Weirdly, the less you shop the less you think you need. I'm not saying poor people don't have material wishes (shoot me if I ever say something that stupid).

I'm saying that if you've always been kind of well off - you don't need more stuff. You just don't.
Look around you in your house or apartment and consider this: all this crap stuff, you paid for it. Was it worth it? Really?

The more you shop, the more you want. New season, new clothes? Why? It's ridiculous.

That said, I'm happy for all the

Books
&
Good clothes (you know the kind)

I bought when I had that option.
