       Reading this news story on "Is #TikTok’s ‘shoppertainment’ sales model pushing Gen Z into debt?"My solution to refusing tempting discounts is simple. Whenever I see outrageous sales like 60%, I will be like, I stand to save 100% if I don't buy it  :blobcatfingerguns:https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/mar/16/tiktoks-shoppertainment-model-gen-z-debt

       To be fair, to reach this state of mind is not simple. I grew up with tangible cash in hand. So the difference between 100, 500 and 1000 was substantial. Digital currencies conceal this fact.Reviewing your monthly expenses and taking a look at the things you have to throw out in trash makes you yearn for #minimalism.
