I’m in my 30s so I should be used to this by now, but this shit is getting so stressful guys. I have no savings, my checking account is drained every month with rent, and if there’s ever a serious emergency I have no safety net, I’m legitimately fucked. I’m one unplanned expense away from absolute ruin. Those in the same boat as me, how do you deal with this?
Back in my twenties we never went out, no cellphones, set goals, and did things cheaply.
Why even mention no cell phones?
In the 1700s they budgeted by not paying all electric bill! So frugal. 🤣
No one in western society can function or even have a job probably, without a cell phone in 2023
Because you don’t need a cellphone, you want one; it’s convenient, but you don’t need one.
What are you saying??? I have not had a job that did not need me to have one in some regard, think you are a little behind the times tbh.
It depends on your line of work, but a cellphone is not mandatory for employment. A cellphone will set you back on average $1,700 a year. If you have to have a phone number get a $ 20-a-month landline basic plan. We are talking about saving money but most people on here don’t want to save money, they just want to have more money.
Cell phones don’t have to cost that much. Google Voice numbers are free. You can still have a cell phone and not have a data plan.
