Hi guys. I'm a 20 year old whip just got their first job about a month and a half ago. Yup. I've basically just continued to come up with excuses since I was 16. Ie, didn't have a car, too much homework, no point, etc.
Now I've finally done it, and I got a job I really like. I work full time as an arcade attendant, making $8 an hour. It's not great, but I enjoy it. However, now that I'm finally making my own money, I feel bad whenever I but the smallest "treats." Yesterday, I bought new headphones, a phone case, and boxed hair dye all in one shopping trip, and I just keep thinking about all of the money that I could have put in my savings.
My idea when I got the job was to put all of it away to save up to move to Texas, since my parents would still be giving me money for groceries every month. Now, every time I spend, I feel like I'm another step away from moving. Has anyone gone through this guilt? What rationalizing do you use?
