It's all about the money Honey!

Posted on September 11 2016


I hate money. I mean, I love it, I get awesome things with it, but I hate it all the same.

No matter how much we seem to have, it disappears quicker than my daughter when I tell her to clean her room.

Bills, fees, food (aargh FOOD), school shoes. Birthday presents, cars. Did I mention food?

We seem to spend a RIDICULOUS amount of money per week on food. No matter how much I meal plan, write lists and try to be organised, I can never seem to set a budget and stick to it.

My bank statement looks a little like this:

1/9 Woolworths Laurimar $219.50
2/9 Woolworths Laurimar $25.34
3/9 Woolworths Laurimar $12.10
3/9 Woolworths Laurimar $9.20
4/9 Woolworths Laurimar $17.21
4/9 Bakers Delight $8.20
5/9 Woolworths Laurimar $23.98
6/9 McDonalds Doreen $48.90
7/9 Starfish Seafood Whittlesea $42.50

You get my drift. You see what I'm doing there. I'm a completely ineffective and incompetent shopper. With absolutely no restraint or willpower.

The first amount is my 'weekly' shop. This is where I get all my school snacks, fruit, veggies etc. I try to buy stuff that we can have for tea. I almost always fail miserably at that.

The subsequent amounts are the daily trips for the things I have forgotten and need but don't really need. The last two are when I can't be effed cooking, so I tell myself I deserve a break. Meanwhile I've dropped a hundred bucks on sh*t greasy food that makes my body heavy and my wallet light.

I wish I was more frugal. More of a saver. An organised, monetary genius that can budget for my family of five, feed them, provide for them, and have money left over for luxurious family holidays, but I'm not. I'm seriously f*cking it up, and I need help.

I'm not always a flippant spender, in fact the more I have I'm less inclined to spend it. If I have a few grand sitting there, I don't want to touch it. I want to nurture it, watch it grow like a plant. I want to keep it there for emergencies, like rego.

BUT - if that amount does happen to dwindle, I'm like, well bugger it, it's going anyway, may as well buy something. If I have $40 bucks left in my account and I'm in Kmart, I'm going to spend $39.95 on stuff, because why the hell shouldn't I.

I know that makes no sense. I know that it's irresponsible. My relationship with money is one that needs some serious therapy.

I'm bad at paying bills on time. Even though I pay them weekly by direct debit, they almost always seem to be more than what I pay. I get reminder notices in the mail. I don't open them. I stuff them under the seat of my car or throw them straight in the coonara. I do eventually pay them. I'm not a criminal, but I don't like the glaring, paper reminder of debt.

As much as I like to have nice things, I'm not a 'brand' person. I don't care if my shoes are Converse or Kmart. I don't give a toss if my bag is leather or pleather. Come to my house for tea, your tomato sauce will be Homebrand, as will your peas.

I refuse to 'Keep up with the Joneses' when it comes to stuff. My house is old, my car is old, I don't feel the need to have 'stuff' because everyone else does. I don't care what everyone else does, if that makes you happy, that's grouse! Good for you! But how the bloody hell do you afford it?

I'm not wasting our money on luxuries. I'm literally existing on it. My husband earns good money. Obviously I'm not going to tell you how much, but it's good. Enough that I don't really need to work. It's too much to get any Centrelink, but not enough to be financially free. Well it probably is actually, but I'm doing it wrong.

Maybe me working is the difference between a holiday on the beaches of Torquay v the beaches of Fiji. Is Fiji going to make me happier than Torquay? I don't think so. I don't know because I've never done it. I suspect in my case, that my habits are psychological rather than environmental. That even if I did have an endless supply of cash, that I wouldn't really change a thing. I love Torquay.

I dunno, I just don't know. Once again I've written a rambling, incoherent post that you are probably finding hard to follow. I apologise for that, but my frustration is real.

What I would like to hear from you dear friends, is how you do it. Tell me your systems. How you prioritise your funds. What you do with your spare money - if there even is such a thing. I understand that we are living amongst a vastly different socioeconomic society. I know some of my friends have sh*tloads of money, some don't have much at all. I want to hear from you. How do you manage? Do you live on credit? Concentrate on having fun and creating memories and worry about paying it back later?Do you just make ends meet every week and then gear up for the next week and pay for what you must?

I really want to know! Help a sister out!

    Following two unsuccessful attempts to recover my stolen USDT, I gave up on ever getting it back until Recovery Nerd was suggested on Quora. I was extremely happy to find the article because they were able to recover 95% of my stolen USDT, so I thought I would share it with anyone else who might be in need of their services. Their email address is recoverynerd AT mail DOT com.

    I was so impatient to carry out some necessary research about crypto training and investing buzz. Unfortunately for me, I invested 65,000 GBP worth of bitcoin with a fraudulent company. I was happy to watch my account grow to 240,000 GBP within a couple of weeks. But I didn’t realize I was dealing with a scam company, until I tried an attempt to withdraw. I made a withdrawal request, and notice my account suddenly blocked for no apparent reason. I tried contacting customer support, but all to no avail. I needed my money back at all cost, because I could not afford to let it go. So I tried all possible means to make sure I recover my scammed bitcoin. I did a lot of online research, and tried to see if there were other people who had any similar experience. I stumbled upon a cryptocurrency forum were couple of people mentioned that they had been through the same process but were able to recover their lost cryptocurrency funds with help of rightwaylawrecoveryservice@gmail.com So I file a report and they were able to help me get back all my lost funds within 24hrs.

    I cannot begin to describe the immense relief and joy I felt when I discovered BOTNET CRYPTO RECOVERY and their incredible ability to retrieve stolen cryptocurrency. Just a few weeks ago, I found myself in a whirlwind of despair after hackers had managed to steal a staggering $89,000 worth of crypto—my hard-earned savings—while investing with someone I met on Instagram. It was an emotional gut punch; the realization that my financial future had been snatched away left me feeling demoralized and powerless. In the depths of my desperation, I plunged into the chaotic sea of the internet, fervently searching for a glimmer of hope or perhaps a miracle that might guide me toward reclaiming what was legally and rightfully mine. Hours turned into days, spent sifting through forums and reviews, only amplifying my fear that my funds were lost for good. Just when I was about to resign myself to defeat, something extraordinary happened. Through the twisting corridors of cyberspace, I stumbled upon BOTNET CRYPTO RECOVERY and their stunningly praised track record for restoring stolen digital assets. I was drawn in by stories of others whose tales mirrored my own—people who had felt the crushing blow of loss, only to find redemption at the hands of this dedicated team. I read about their clever tactics that exploited the cracks in the digital nefarious underbelly, details of recovery attempts that seemed almost too good to be true. Yet, the more I explored their reputation, the more resolute I became that this might just be the opportunity I had been searching for. With cautious optimism, I reached out to them, eager to unveil the specifics of my case. As we exchanged information, it felt like a reset — a brief glimmer of sunshine peeking through the heavy clouds of distress that had shadowed my thoughts for weeks. The BOTNET CRYPTO RECOVERY professionals quickly turned my sorrow into a partnership grounded in expertise and urgency. They highlighted the systematic approach they would employ, going through layers of encryption and shadowy blockchain trails that few understand. As days followed, I watched, hopeful and somewhat anxious, as they worked tirelessly to piece together my fragmented digital life. Each update they provided strengthened my faith and excitement for what might come next. Finally, they recovered everything I lost. To contact BOTNET CRYPTO RECOVERY.
