Hey everyone.
So I’m 24, and I constantly feel guilt about spending money. I grew up poor, and now that I’m making money I can actually buy the things I want/never got as a child/teen.
My problem though, is that I feel like by spending money I am screwing myself over for my future because I’m not saving it. Also, I know that saving is important and I try my best to, but there is hardly anything left after the month. I don’t go crazy spending, I’m on in credit card debt or anything, but my savings account is really small.
In addition to that, I hate buying things for myself, but it’s like money is no object when it comes to my wife (within reason of course). I just feel like I’m in a cycle and I can’t break free. What do I do? I just feel like an idiot, I should have better control of myself but I don’t and I don’t know how I can.
