I have found that saving money is not difficult—— Just go against consumerism.
Today I want to take stock of the consumerism rhetoric that I really dislike.
In 2024, I hope that we can all no longer be bound by consumerism, save money to settle down, and live the life we love. Don't forget to share your experience!

1) We women should treat ourselves better. “
Girls are meant to please themselves and treat themselves well
I was once brainwashed by these two phrases and bought back a bunch of meaningless junk, spending all my energy and money. Let me know your thoughts in the comments!
In my opinion, items that are bought back and used up are all junk and garbage.
We don't make money to buy garbage.
At least this cannot be considered good for oneself.
To be truly good to oneself, one must cherish the money they have earned through hard work, the labor and time they have put in. Don't forget to share your experience!
Don't be taken into the pit by just one word from others.

2) Girls must have a bag/shoe/jewelry/skirt that supports the scene
Hehe, most people's lives are basically about going to work, going home, and hanging out with friends. There aren't so many scenes to hold on to. Let me know your thoughts in the comments!
I don't know about other cities, but in Guangzhou, people really don't care too much about what you wear for daily work gatherings. Let me know your thoughts in the comments!
What else does' life must have... 'and' girls must have... '.
To be honest, only having a healthy body and mind is necessary, not necessarily anything else.

3) XXX is a must-have for beheading men
This really overestimates the aesthetic of boys.
Most boys cannot distinguish the differences between different color codes at all.
Not to mention boys, I often can't even distinguish between girls.

4) When you encounter something you like, buy it. Money isn't really spent, it's just a way to continue accompanying you Don't forget to share your experience!
Let's take a look at what companionship we ultimately received?
All fat? Clothes with a bunch of tags that haven't been removed? Expired lipstick or skincare products? Ovens, steamers, DSLR cameras that are rarely used Let me know your thoughts in the comments!
Are you sure you would like to exchange the money for this kind of companionship?
Anyway, I don't like it.
Money that has been spent belongs to someone else, only what has not been spent is called wealth.
And money can be turned into items at will, but when you urgently need it, fatty meat and old clothes cannot pay for you. Let me know your thoughts in the comments!
So, when buying something, don't just impulsively place an order based on liking, but also consider whether you really need it and whether you can really use it. Don't forget to share your experience!

5) Money is earned, not saved
However, for most ordinary people, their monthly salary is only this small and almost fixed.
How can we save money without saving?
Especially in the past two years, it has become even harder for ordinary people to earn money.
How can we get through this difficult period of economic downturn without saving?
Who doesn't want to earn a lot of money? The problem is, ordinary people don't have as many opportunities.
It's better to face reality, accept reality, and do what you can do well.

6) The must eat list and must play list of XX city
What else is there? "XXX, you're so confused if you don't promote this
I used to look at these lists when I went out to eat.
Especially when traveling, if you don't queue up to clock in, you may feel like something is missing.
Later on, I found out that those who made it onto these lists were neither local old shops nor local specialty foods. Most of them were bought by merchants with money. Let me know your thoughts in the comments!
It's not surprising, the frequency of lightning strikes is quite high.
I no longer trust those five-star reviews and various rankings when I go out to eat or play.
If you are going to eat, you prefer to find some unique old restaurants.
In my experience that after the baptism of time, there are still some essence left.

7) The money you save now will suddenly be spent on a serious illness in the future
I hate this phrase the most.
Am I cursed if I am not subjected to consumerism PUA?
