In the first half of this year, apart from the mortgage, my husband and I only spent 1.6w yuan.
On average, One person only spent about 1350 yuan per month, Including all expenses other than the mortgage.
This expense should be considered very small in Guangzhou.
It's not surprising that people often question whether I'm lying or falsifying?
I can only say that life is not just about the one in front of you.
In countless worlds, anything is possible.
We do not mistreat basic living, but we also do not rely too much on consumption.
Today, let's take a closer look at how we managed to earn over 1000 yuan in living expenses for a month. What do you think about this?
·
1) I only buy clothes when there are clothes in the wardrobe that need to be eliminated.
I don't have the idea or desire to buy clothes every month or every quarter, I don't always feel like I'm missing a piece of clothing.
I am very satisfied with the current quantity of clothes.
I won't actively go shopping or browse apps, nor will I care about any related consumer information, unless they need to be replaced. What do you think about this?
In recent years, my husband and I have spent around 2000 yuan a year on clothes, shoes, and hats.
One person earns less than 100 yuan per month.
·
2) We only spent less than 300 yuan on dining out in the first half of the year.
On average, one person earns less than 25 yuan per month.
I have also introduced this aspect before. I am good at cooking and do not have a strong desire to dine out. Don't forget to share your experience!
Free trials on some platforms are already sufficient.
·
3) We hardly spend money on milk tea and rarely eat snacks.
Hemari Fresh Milk is my top tier milk tea.
Good to drink, cheap, and healthy.
As for snacks, I don't really love them.
Our expenses in this area are almost zero yuan.
·
4) We know how to calculate when buying groceries.
Firstly, buy as much as you eat, without leftovers, waste, or spoilage.
Because I have been cooking for a long time, I am very proficient in how much meat and vegetables are needed for each meal. Don't forget to share your experience!
Secondly, prioritize buying the discounted dishes of the day.
Many grocery stores and supermarkets have popular discounted dishes for the day, and I will prioritize buying them.
Finally, don't miss out on the discounted dishes for the evening.
Like yellow beef, originally priced at over 40 pounds.
If I go to buy it at a discount tonight, it's only over 20 pounds.
I'm not available on weekdays, so I can go shopping on weekends when I have a break.
In the first half of this year, our family's dining expenses were less than 450 yuan per person per month.
·
5) Our household's water, electricity, and fuel are not high.
In months without air conditioning, the monthly electricity bill is only over 30 yuan.
Turning on the air conditioning will be a bit more, but the most expensive electricity bill in July is only 117 yuan. Have you tried this before? Share your story!
The monthly water fee is around 20 yuan.
The average monthly gas cost is around 33 yuan.
The monthly property fee is around 200 yuan.
The house is small, with few appliances and fewer people, so the cost is low.
·
6) Our monthly internet fee and expenses are only 41 yuan.
Mr.'s phone bill will be covered by the company.
My phone bill is 20 yuan per month, with 10g of data usage per month, which I won't be able to use up. Have you tried this before? Share your story!
Our internet at home costs 21 yuan per month, which is enough for me to work and watch movies and TV shows. Let me know your thoughts in the comments!
·
7) I consume very few skincare products in a year.
Last year, I only used a bottle of lotion+a bottle of face cream on my face.
I haven't used half of the face cream I bought at the end of April this year, so I don't expect to buy face cream this year. Don't forget to share your experience!
In the first half of the year, the expenditure on skincare was only 252 yuan, averaging only 42 yuan per month. Don't forget to share your experience!
Don't worry, I haven't become the legendary yellow faced woman.
On the contrary, my skin is quite good and I look young.
Because good skin comes from a healthy lifestyle, not hoarding skincare products.
·
8) We only take public transportation when we go out.
I don't have a car and rarely use Didi.
I'm afraid I take a taxi no more than 5 times a year.
I usually consider taking a taxi when the weather is bad and I am unprepared.
Thanks to the well-developed public transportation in Guangzhou.
So, our monthly transportation expenses alone are less than 200 yuan.
·
9) Finally, let's talk about the social and personal relationships that people often mention.
Our social expenses are almost zero.
My husband and I don't have many friends.
Occasionally we gather, either to share a royal meal together, take a walk in the park to see exhibitions, or have a picnic with some homemade food on good weather Don't forget to share your experience!
We also spend very little on personal relationships.
Living alone in Guangzhou, with no relatives or family around.
There aren't that many relationships to maintain, and we won't make a big deal out of it.
More importantly, they settle down separately and forget about each other in the martial arts world.
So, there will only be a small amount of personal expenses during the Spring Festival, two to three thousand per year. Don't forget to share your experience!
