Experiences vs. Investments? 🤔

I know. I want both too !! 🤭🙃

As millennials, we are almost always for the “drive through” kinda life – you know, quick, fast, NOWWW ! I want it all RIGHT NOW.😐😶

A lot of our choices are very exemplified by the popular “YOLO” (You Only Live Once) or “FOMO” (Fear Of Missing Out)

~> YOLO always makes me laugh (even though I indulge when it’s Indomie or Caramel time 🌝) but really YODO too na !!! (You Only Die Once)🤭😑

These are different schools of thought and our beliefs are very much shaped by our upbringing & previous experiences. You’d expect our frivolities to be shaped by the sizes of our wallets, goals, aspirations, levels of responsibilities but we all know that’s almost outside the window in our generation, sadly so.

Let me rephrase and say “if you Go For It, Take Your Sense With You”.

🤷🏾‍♀️

DassIt.

Moderation.

Balance.

Logic.

•Be Responsible

I haven’t yet figured it out but I highly doubt that a trip to the Maldives will pay your rent.. pls let me know. 😂 I may have it all wobbled 🤣

Most of us wonder why it’s important to stash away money when I could just blow it on my IG perfect lifestyle, especially now – you know, I’m popping RIGHT NOW. I’m the “in-thing.”

~Rude Awakening: not facing reality doesn’t mean reality has faded 🤣 – Karma they say, is a ______ ! Reality will soon catch up with you.

•Be Wise

•Be Pragmatic

To Thine Own Self, Be True.

True Life Story: a man – who decided to buy all the latest Mercedes models in the late 90’s came home one day with a fleet of cars

You know… ! #boss

He was in. He was “LIT” – the envy of the entire neighborhood

Long story short, the cars earned him his short-lived admiration, ego, and excitement

Don’t ask me where he is now …still alive, asking for “allowee” from the kids he didn’t raise 🤣

Suffer wan finish baba

Oh his fleet of cars? 🌝

The admiration, ego and excitement can feed, cloth, and shelter him now I presume? 🤣🤣🤣

Don’t be like Baba 🤭

To Thine Own Self, Be True.

[Allowee: Allowance

“Suffer wan finish Baba”: The man is hella suffering]
