This generation drains me to the core! Calling with WhatsApp call instead of airtime means you are not serious. Buying items on promotion like Steers Wacky Wednesday, Spur Bottomless Thursdays and Chicken Inn Terrific Tuesday or using an iTel means you are broke. I'm tired shem. 
Not wearing designer = you are broke. Staying with your parents when you are 30 means you are not mature. Staying in the ghetto whilst working means you are poor. The list is endless. People really need financial literacy. A lot of you are chocking in debts simply because you
want to live according to a fake narrative. You would rather APPEAR rich than be ACTUALLY rich. Someone stays with their parents even if they are 30 probably because the parents have an ailment which need someone really close to them to take care of them
Some can ACTUALLY afford an iPhone 12 Max but they have 6 siblings they are looking after and they can not have the luxury of walking with a phone which has a value that can send 10 of the siblings to school and empower them hence they buy an iTel which can serve the purpose of
communication which they intend it for. Some can ACTUALLY afford to buy restaurant food on a daily basis but they wait for promotions because they help you save. Some wait to buy on those days because they want to buy more and give the homeless and streetkids but wena you have
no idea about it and you just laugh at them because you see them buying promotional items and you think it is because they are poor. Some people grew up without wearing any shoes and started only wearing shoes after their first salary. So to them that "fake" sneaker is the best
shoe they have and most importantly, they bought it with their own money without asking it from you "the rich one." Rich people are usually called "stingy" and people expect them to go around throwing money at people. They became rich because they knew how to save and never spend
just for the sake of spending. There are people staying in Borrowdale, Sandton, Grange etc who are choking on rentals because they do not want to downgrade their lifestyle and suit their pocket. There are people who are sending kids to A schools but the kid looks abandoned
there because there is not enough support for the kid. No wonder some kids hide during visiting days or lie that these people are my uncles and nephews when you as a parent visit them. DON'T force things. Do what you can according to your budget. Never try and fit in to please
some internet stranger or to make it appear as if you are rich when you are just barely making it. Your pocket needs to breathe. If you earn 10k per month, it doesn't mean you can now afford to buy a 9k per month car instalment. You will choke whilst driving the latest car model
We need financial education. This spending behavior needs a good bank balance. DON'T spend for the sake of it. That mentality must cease forthwith. When you understand these things you will see why rich people love freebies.
