This post is mainly due to my personal stubborness! I was raised (and it has stuck!), that if at all possible, savings sit until that time I am no longer working (retired) or emergency, or large planned expense, such as purchasing a house. But… not daily expenses/bills!!
This isnt about what to do with 'X amount' of money, rather it's about the belief and challenge of living solely off daily income, even if have some savings available.
But at what inconvenience/stress 'cost' should this goal be adhered to? I admit I sell stuff to meet daily expenses and it feels good to see my resourcefulness be successful. On the flip side, it can also create stress if sells arent happening when needed, or are not enough. Maybe I should relax more and not think so negatively about removing from savings!?
The (most recent) post by Schwefel1995 made me think maybe I'm not the only one who is stubborn enough to insist on taking care of daily expenses without dipping into savings…no matter how small that savings may be!? Also many other posts, this was the most recent that I spotted.
No right or wrong, as everyone's circumstances and life is different. Just wondering what fellows scrappers think?
