Whenever I want to spend money on things that I know are things that I really don\u2019t need and would usually be considered frivolous, I often times open them in a tab.\u00a0 And then on almost a daily basis, whether I do it myself or it refreshes on its own after a restart or a browser reset, I look longingly at it, but don\u2019t pull the trigger.\u00a0 And then after enough time, the good in question inevitably sells out or goes unavailable, and I am left empty handed, and wondering why the fuck I just didn\u2019t pull the trigger and buy it.<\/span><\/p>\n It’s not like I don\u2019t have the disposable money in order to get it.\u00a0 I have cash earned through survey apps, funds saved up from gifts from the past, and I\u2019m sitting on a nice chunk of change in the form of Visa gift cards that I\u2019ve earned throughout the last few months.<\/span><\/p>\n But maybe it\u2019s the Korean in me that doesn\u2019t like to spend money, but so often times is the case, I just can\u2019t bring myself to actually pull the trigger on any of these frivolous things that I want.<\/span><\/p>\n There was <\/span>this Freddie Freeman bobblehead<\/a> that I had the tab open for like three weeks that I never pulled on, and now it\u2019s sold out, and now that he\u2019s moved onto the fucking Dodgers, this is now a true collectible and I won\u2019t get one when they release.\u00a0 I had my eyes on some Pakistani replica blets that were very reasonably priced that I just couldn\u2019t bring myself to pull the trigger on, and they\u2019re now unavailable currently, with no idea when they\u2019ll ever, if at all, come back.<\/span><\/p>\n Numerous virtual runs that I intend on doing, now that I\u2019ve gotten back into exercising, I\u2019ve sat on them and probably missed out on at least 3-4 price increases; I know I want to do them, why the fuck am I waiting until the price increases, multiple times, before I actually get my ass in gear and register?<\/span><\/p>\n These are all things that I want and can afford to purchase.\u00a0 But for whatever reason, I just have the hardest fucking time when it comes to pulling the trigger and parting with any of my actual money, regardless of if it\u2019s for something I want.\u00a0 Somewhere along the passage of time, I\u2019ve become crippled at the ability to impulsively purchase things, which isn\u2019t necessarily always a bad thing, but considering the fact that I\u2019m actively missing out on very easily available things because I wait, or I end up paying more for things, because I wait, I\u2019m just fucking myself, repeatedly.<\/span><\/p>\n Sure, there are all sorts of jokes about Koreans being cheap, or me being a cheapskate, but it\u2019s like there\u2019s a part of me that is so anti-stuff, that I struggle to bring myself to actually spend money on things that will just take up more space in my house.\u00a0 Or I\u2019m always preparing for the next unexpected expense or debt, that I have completely lost sight of the present, despite the fact that such a cost would usually come from a different bucket anyway.<\/span><\/p>\n Or perhaps this is just some sort of mental condition, the inability to be decisive when it comes to spending money on frivolous shit?\u00a0 Either way, I feel like I need to be shown how to pull the trigger, because I certainly can\u2019t seem to do it on my own very well these days.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Whenever I want to spend money on things that I know are things that I really don\u2019t need and would usually be considered frivolous, I often times open them in a tab.\u00a0 And then on almost a daily basis, whether I do it myself or it refreshes on its own after a restart or a … Continue reading Someone teach me how to pull the trigger<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[196,151,142,66,79,83,32],"class_list":["post-48659","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-brog","tag-barves","tag-blets","tag-bobbleheads","tag-braves","tag-cashmoney","tag-observations","tag-running"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48659","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=48659"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48659\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":48661,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48659\/revisions\/48661"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=48659"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=48659"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=48659"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
