on this one i want to talk about financial setbacks
ok so one thing i'm big on is basically anticipating financial setbacks my job canceled our insurance mid-year so they could start a new plan.. and before they told us, i went to the dentist so what ended up happening was... i left the dentist thinking everything was covered.. but i ended up getting an invoice a few weeks later for $92 another thing that happened was.. after my time with my last job ended they sent me an invoice for over $500 that sounds crazy but it really happened.. they said something about how i had to pay for vacation time.. it didn't really make any sense to me but here's the point i want to make i think its important to anticipate financial setbacks.. don't live your life at the top end of your budget.. try to live beneath your means i remember back in 2010 i got a $50 traffic citation on my birthday... at the time it basically kinda ruined my day.. my parents felt bad for me and they paid it but when it comes to the recent $92 invoice and the recent $500 invoice, i paid them with no issues whatsoever i'm saying this with humility, but i live different today i basically live with an awareness that at any moment life could hit me with some unexpected expense so all i'm saying is, try to live in a way where if a financial setback comes, u can just handle it and get back to living a peaceful life u don't want to be like i was when i got the citation in 2010... u don't want a financial setback to ruin your day or your week, and u don't want a financial setback to put u in a position where u can't afford something that you want or need the simplest way i can put it is like this: are u a person who keeps an umprella at all times just in case? or are u a person who is likely to have to walk into the office soaking wet if it rains? just keep an umbrella anticipate financial setbacks, and when they come and ur equipped to handle them, handle them immediately and get back to peace and normalcy... and forget that the setback ever happened
