There are millions of articles and thousands of financial influencers teaching how to save and invest, but let’s get real—post-COVID, saving money is more about controlling ego than just budgeting.
In today’s world, social media has redefined success as owning luxury cars, designer clothes, exotic vacations, and expensive gadgets. Is that what you really want? Or is it just a dopamine hit from likes and validation? 🤔
I’ve seen many people say, “I’m working hard and saving money to enjoy these things.” But in most cases, they believe these things will bring happiness—but they don’t. Because they are just replicating an influencer’s life, without considering their own job, country, age, or family situation.
🔹 The harsh truth? Many families are spending too much to feed their ego, not for what they actually need.
✅ Want to save money? Start here:
1️⃣ Why do you want to save?
2️⃣ How much do you need to save?
3️⃣ When do you want to reach your savings goal?
If you can’t answer these, you’re likely spending on things you don’t really need.
Save for your future, not for social media likes. 📉📈
