I would like to take this time to give a shout out and a great thanks to a friend who i speak to. ill call him Z. I spoke to him last night over a cuppa drink and he kinda knocked some sense into my head. as we've been friends for over 10 plus years its only recently i believe we got closer. i started sharing more stuff with him and even some secrets too. He has kept them well and i feel safe that he keeps them. (ya not sharing are you?)
Anyways, last night he spoke to me about savings. As most of the closer friends who know me, i admit yes, i am an impulsive shopper. i have bought stuff that i left lying around many a times which includes a keyboard which i bought very recently. (it's not expensive, but it's hard earned money still).
So he told me if i continued to do this spending and no saving, it's gonna be very hard for me in the years to come. yup that's right, i got no savings... sucks i know but there are many a times that i go to withdraw money only to find it all disappeared. I'm guessing i spend a lot without knowing how much had already gone. i believe many other people have this same situation too. but thanks to him, i woke up and i decided to put aside some cash (i have been doing this all along but in the end i used that money. So what i did was i passed the cash to someone i trust. asked that friend to save for me. or at least keep it for safe keeping. how much didnt matter as long as it was something every month. So i pray and hope this can and will go on as the months pass by. I will put more when it comes to bonuses and any other extra cash on hand.
Not forgetting the 'what about now' piggy bank. aka the dollar a day project.
I really hope this pulls through and i can donate this to some one or somewhere who needs it more than i. although 1 buck a day may not seem much to anyone, i believe its a good start. anyone would like to join me in this move? hmmm
ill be praying for your support
and also be praying for you my dear friend, Z
this is a lil something for you...
PS: hope you like it la. i just love photography so they come as gifts haha...
