By only thinking about following a luxurious lifestyle, of course this will drain our financial income, I myself think that I am more concerned with basic needs than following a luxurious lifestyle, because even by fulfilling a luxurious lifestyle it will not necessarily make me happy. The income earned must be balanced with the needs, if for example the focus is more on the lifestyle, I am afraid that the basic needs will be affected.
It is clear that it will be affected because I have also seen some people who don't care about their basic needs apart from only caring more about their own luxurious lifestyle. I also don't know how people like that think, because they are so willing to endure hunger just to be able to fulfill a luxurious lifestyle and they will even be very happy when other people praise their lifestyle. But they are not aware that by continuing to do such things they are causing damage to their own health, because perhaps they do not have a commensurate income to continue to indulge their desires in this lifestyle.

Yes, I agree with you, I will balance my income and basic needs, then the rest is to be enjoyed more, even if the income I get is limited, in my opinion it is very mandatory to save even if it is in a small amount it doesn't matter. Because if we don't save, what I'm afraid of in the future is that suddenly there is a problem and our financial situation is bad so it is difficult to deal with it, Nakmun, if with the savings we do at such times we will not be too confused and will not borrow here and there to deal with problems that suddenly come.
You can think about this now or in the past if the goal is to save so that you don't experience economic difficulties when economic conditions start to get worse. And what's more important is that you also have to know how much you earn each month so that you can balance your own expenses in several ways. This includes lifestyle because daily needs are things that are very important so everyone will definitely prioritize these things before prioritizing their own lifestyle. Except for people who are not wise in using money and are willing to endure hunger just for the sake of their lifestyle.
