In short, the money we didn't work hard for is easy to spend, but the money you know you worked hard for is sure to be valued truly and rightly. There is the feeling that you will value every single cent of it.
I don't believe that money made without much effort is easy to spend it is dependent on the individual that has the money to decide whether to make judicious use of it or to spend it on frivolous things. You can't tell me that because you made money so easily is enough reason for you not make good use of your money it is a very wrong narrative
Thats why every hard-earned income should go to meaningful things. If you want to gift yourself, it's normal, in my opinion, as long as you take the consequences, whether you're going to do it for good or bad purposes.
There's is no money that is meant to be set aside for meaningful things and less important things, every money you made needs to be spent wisely be it had earned money or a money you got without much stress. We should change this narrative of spending money with made through a hard means carefully and the one we got in a platter of gold extravagantly, money is meant to be valued therefore it should be spent on meaningful things
