it's been a long time since i blogged. alot of things happened but very lazy to type.
first. BYE BYE to cuhk. i'm to poor to visit u.
next. macro mid term was a disaster seriously. think i'm gonna get either zero or two marks.
i'm praying n hoping that the mc-issue will go smooth.
i'm so in need of money. super. it's negative btw.
ok. now the main point that i want to blog about. read the title. i thought of this issue while i was bathing. lol (i think alot while bathing or shitting lol) would one prefer a spendthrift partner or a thrifty one? tell me where can i find someone who is somewhere in between? someone who knows how to be 'financially wise'. it's so hard to find. people are so extreme.
a spendthrift person's mentality is that we should make full use of our 'resources' and enjoy life to the fullest! we shouldnt worry so much about money and at the end of the day become upset about it. have good food every weekend (at least). dine at some highclass restaurant, go for brands, shop at taka/paragon, want to take cab most of the time (if doesnt have transport), have cakes/icecreams in restaurants/cafes for dessert, blah blah. --this is so 'what the hell'. no financial planning. only know how to play. will suffer if i marry this kinda man. however, there will be short term enjoyment, but long term pain. -.-
a thrifty one would have the mentality of saving every single cent for 'rainy days' (my mother's favourite term -.-). will not want to enjoy even if there r more than sufficient funds. he/she would always be worrying that the 'rainy day' will come. prefers to cook at home or dine at coffeeshops. the once-in-a-while good food would be 'zhi char' with curry fish head/crab and a few side dishes, shops at chinatown/'heartlands' shopping centres, have tau huay or ice kachang from chomp chomp for dessert, chooses to take public transport all the time, blah blah. --this is also SO 'what-the-hell'. super good financial planning, no fear for the 'rainy day' will also suffer if i marry this kinda man. because there will not be any pain in the future, but no enjoyment as well. =(
tell me where to find an in-between. btw, i'm NOT referring to any individuals i've met. [i bet 90% of u would think it's ben n norman] nono!! it's just what i thought while i was bathing. -____________- i know it's damn bo liao. i'm just too bored.
