Just enough to afford the basic needs of life.

Hello, everyone.

I welcome you to my blog. I believe everyone walking the face of the earth is struggling and working towards attaining financial stability; there is a feeling that only financial stability can offer you, and we all strive and give it our all to make sure that we get to experience that feeling in our lifetime. Some of us were not born into rich families and have experienced what it feels like to be financially incapable of affording the basic needs of life or the on and off seasons where today you can comfortably afford the basic needs of life and tomorrow you cannot, and that leaves you reminiscing on the periods when you could do so without flinching.

Financial stability is something that everyone hopes they attain someday; it is something we all work towards achieving, and some people have even vowed to do so by hook or by crook and are willing to do just anything to make sure they attain financial stability before they leave this life. Attaining financial stability gives you freedom; you are free to travel to wherever you want, and you can buy whatever you want as well with no restrictions. Attaining financial stability gives you access to places that the lack of it will stop you from entering, which makes attaining financial stability very important.

To the prompt for this week: how much money is enough for me to stop worrying about finances? For some people there is a particular amount they need or want to never worry about finances anymore, but for me there is no particular amount in mind, but all I need is just enough to afford the basic needs of life for myself and my entire family, enough to buy what we want and need without thinking about where another will come from, enough that we can spend as much as we want and like without the thoughts of "How do we recover or replace this spending?" crossing our minds.

Once you have attained financial stability, you buy the things you need without thinking too much or feeling sad. When you are not financially buoyant enough, you spend on needs and necessities and still feel sad for doing so, but when financially buoyant enough, you can comfortably buy needs and necessities without feeling sad. That is the type of money I will have, and I will not bother about finances anymore when I spend on things without feeling sad or thinking about how to cope after the expenditure.
