Our Money's Worth Depend On Us, Not What The World Says

Our Money's Worth Depend On Us, Not What The World Says

Money is a fiat currency we use in modern society to bring us our wants and needs. If you like Jimmy Choo's shoes, then, yes, buy Jimmy Choo shoes. But, if you don't think it's worth your time, please keep that to yourself and don't impose that judgment on others. Your taste is different from theirs, and vice versa.

They may look like a model out of a Gucci magazine, but you can stick to your local brands if you like. Just let people be as they are. Same for those who think that someone should spend more on their items. You consider a Gucci bag is your money's worth, but that doesn't imply everyone else does.

If you do talk about how designer items and whether one should invest in them, please be kind towards others and help them understand that you respectively disagree with their opinion. It's easy for all of us to say money doesn't buy taste, and that is true. The way you dress, eat, and live your daily life comes about you and your life choices. Yes, the more money you have, the more likely you are going to spend it. But, there are individuals out there who spend even without having any safety money. So, I don't think it's just money.

Yes, you may belive many people are wasting their money out of nothing, but we shouldn't impose our judgment on them. I think it's best to ask them why they do it and have a peaceful discussion if you want to explain your opinion on the subject matter.

I have two takes on this idea. My first one is that money should be put to use, depending on the owner at the moment. So girl, if you want to invest in blow dry's, go for it! It's your money, so you decide it's use to you then and there. If you want to give a large sum of it to charity, go right ahead (I will also commend you for thinking about others from time to time)!

Another thing I do suggest is if you see this as an issue overall, try what you can to solve from your side before telling others what they should do. I am a firm believer in the idea that changes start with you. Humans are known for being flawed by nature. We can't demand others to support what we believe, especially if we don't even attempt to follow it.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
