Spend more and rue later, or save now, get screwed and die later?
That's the question I came up while I was eating this a Rs.35/- Chicken Biryani (Although it might be something which ate a chicken.) from a small restaurant near my University since I had only Rs. 100 which I get everyday as my stipend and my university charges around Rs. 80-95 for almost the similar quantity and almost same in the taste. Eating that biryani gave me sense of elation, that I managed to save almost double of what I would usually spend in my university but at the same time fear of eating something cooked in unprocessed animal fat and area surrounded with at least a billion flies, not to mention that my university stands right next to an industrial waste canal. Well, again I'll give you my biased thoughts on how I presume this entire situation and what was the answer I came up with.
Fortunately for me, my parents can afford me to go to a good university and give me a pocket money, still saving is something which I and my folks value a lot. But then again, My saving options are pretty limited, since I have not earned a single dime in my life, ever. Even my application to earn from this blog got turned down. All I get through out the year is from Birthdays, Religious Festivities where I get money from elders relatives and then again my monthly parental ATM which withdraws a sum of cash conveniently at the start of the month. Now given this situation of dependency, I believe my only answer to this cerebral mayhem is, Save now and party later, as long as I don't barf my lungs out.
You might say, dude ask your parents for a raise or why the *explicits* are you throwing your life away.
A lot of reasons weighs my opinion a ton in comparison to mere Kgs of being ripped off in NAVEED'S BIASED MEASUREMENT TOOL (NBMT, because making acronyms for made-up things is fun.)
Well, to be honest, It's where my semi-existant ego comes in action, so yeah, I don't like asking for money, and I'm running out of sources to my make myself some cash. So yeah, saving now is doing me a lot of favors, I can spend a good sum of cash on dinners, movies and usual hangouts from the money I save everyday and I don't have to make up excuses (not at least till the end of the month i.e). Don't mix it up with "saving it for the rainy day" just call is "saving for the party time" since the occurrence of both of rain and party have a drastic difference. As for death, I don't earn so no one is dependent on me and I don't owe anyone anything so at least no one will be selling my tombstone for money. But yeah, maybe who knows getting some money, robbing a couple of banks or just getting a mere job might better my situation in the future and I might spend and spend more. But a screwed up budget, minor but strong ego and limited options, I declare a knockout in the 1st round with victory for Chewed off by hepatitis. Because though it might not give you a Big Bar of Snickers in the first attempt, But will give a Hershey's kiss every time.
