    This feels like a session with a therapist about a spending addiction.

    i know this wasnt your intent with this video but hearing that you grew up poor and felt guilty about your parents paying for stuff for you like i did really resonated with me. im in that stage of poverty that you mentioned where i have to budget everything really strictly and ive been so stressed about money lately that ive had more breakdowns than im comfortable admitting to. it was really nice to hear that you did come out of that and it gave me a little hope that i will get through this phase im in too :) thank you, soony

      You will get through it for sure! Like everything, this shall pass and you'll look back with fondness at the person you were who tried so hard and didnt give up.
      Keep shining ✨

    honestly, i don't think your spending is that bad or out of control. most of the stuff you spent money is reasonable and can't be avoided, like paying for placement-related travel, and we all have to eat. i'm also a grad student who didn't grow up well-off, so i def feel you on the guilt you feel when you spend money. i think as long as you genuinely enjoy something, like bubble tea, and you feel like it's worth it, it's fine to consume it within moderation. for me, i hate bubble tea (def a hot take, i know lol) so i get annoyed when friends asked to meet up pre-panoroma with the explicit purpose of getting bubble tea, bc for me, that's not worth it.

    Maybe it’s a tips for you to save a little bit money, bind your 16-25 Railcard and Oyster Card could have a 1/3 discount, when you use public transport during the off-peak period. And Daily caps is also £7.2
    Also, bubble tea is also an essential thing like salt for me, lol😂(there’s myself recipe, if you want, you can cook it your self, just put a black tea ball in 300-400ml whole milk and heat it 1minute in microwave, than add sugar.)

    this is me how I spend on daily basis. I also felt guilty having take out but you know what, its fine! it's for survival, we need food to live. I observed your spending is mostly transportation, meal and food shopping. those are necessity 🤷🏻‍♀️ I find it wasteful if I shop for clothes, and other misc stuff. but of course having take out in moderation 😊

    Bubble tea is the killer for me! Chattime is so delicious, I can never help myself when I'm around it. Especially when that's the only drink you have when going out, its so fun to hang out with friends and enjoy it. ^^

  • @missmacapaca
    @missmacapaca 3 года назад +2

    it might be worth putting money into savings at the beginning of the month (or whenever payday is) , so that you know you have enough money to both save and spend it on whatever you want! I don't think you're wasting money, I think it's part London being insanely expensive, and part having your own money after years of not having any that makes spending so much money so easy

I also didn't want other people watching to think it's normal for the average student - if you can spend this much and it makes you happy then I'm glad, go for it, you're definitely working hard enough to justify treating yourself... but most students don't have a lucrative youtube channel to fund this

      @@abee2557 not at all! i think i might’ve been shocked by this too. i did try to include the bit at the end about how when i was budgeting i’d spend way less, and that what i spend is not needed to be a student in london. but i do understand what you’re saying. i think i spent so long feeling limited and sort of caged by financial constraints so i try to spend more freely and without as much stress now. anyway this is turning into an essay but thought it’d be good to acknowledge this properly :)
