If everything in life becomes a necessity, you just don’t know where to stop. Sure food…clothing…shelter…are all necessities. But for you laptop…car…trip abroad…new shoes every week is a necessity? Your problem….you just can’t separate needs from wants. Money is a finite resource. If you waste it on things you don’t need, you will have nothing to spend on things you need. This is knocking on the doors of poverty. If you do not learn to prioritize needs over wants, your pockets will always be empty.
