I recently encountered someone who talked about spending their money fast or slow. It got me thinking what are the differences. Basically spending your money fast means when you get money, you end up losing it immediately to buy whatever it is you want. Spending your money slow means once you acquire your money, it takes time for you to spend it but at the end... you still spend it anyway. It made me realize that even if you save your money to spend it eventually, you are still somehow losing money. The point is not when you spend your money but where you spend your money on. You can spend your money immediately but are you spending it on something worth its price? Something valuable? Something that is necessary?
If money is spent on knowledge that can help us earn more money in the future, then that's worthwhile and even a better option. But spending money solely on temporary pleasures is something that should be avoided.
So, the issue isn't whether we spend money quickly or slowly. The issue is what we spend it on. I could be misunderstanding this topic. But the bottom line is that I don't mind spending money quickly if it's an investment for the future, whether in the form of knowledge or something else. This means using money to generate more money in the future is the best option.
