BIG Spenders, we all know one!

December 19th, 2012 at 07:32 pm

I have an old friend who lives in another state, but he often posts on FB about what he is up too. Mostly it involves spending money. He recently purchased a new Cadillac, took a trip to Costa Rico and spent $1000 at Costco on Christmas decorations for his house and food for an upcoming party.

K is a lot of fun, always the life of the party! He has a "you can't take it with you" attitude. What worries me (in addition to his crazy spending) is that he works for a defense contractor and with deep defense spending cuts on the horizon, he may be in danger of being laid-off. He has worked there his whole life and only has a high school diploma, so I really worry that he will have a very difficult time finding employment. He is also over 50, a double whammy.

While I am careful with money, I do spend on activities that I enjoy, and have an active social life, but I budget for these things, so I don't feel like I am missing out on life because I am a saver!

Those Costa Rico vacation photos did make me drool just a little though! My next big vacation will be in 2014....saving for Hawaii!

    Together in the beyond but additionally will have greater dinners to come. Nothing to hide from buddies, telling them you're financially low in the meanwhile and cannot afford all in their favored plates might cost your popularity or status with them. Play it clever, pick the eating place in case you don't want them over at your location. Meet with the chef in advance, an assessment of the menu and create a course that suits your pocket.

    While I think it's very noble of you to worry about your friend, I think he can be responsible for his own actions since he's a grown adult and regardless of what actions he decides to pursue, he'll learn something from it in the end.
