So lots of heavy hitters here really cutting back on spending it seems. Question is when Trump opens it back up are you going to go back to your old ways so the economy doesn't suffer further? Is it F the economy I'm saving mine? Are some of your changes now permanent? I'm all for independence, saving, and self reliance. Just curious about y'all's psychology after this settles down.
I will be changing a lot of my habits:
Things I will not be doing include:
- Going to sporting events until October or November most likely. I'm still going to try and avoid mass gatherings until this virus is controlled.
- Eating at restaurants as often. I've thoroughly enjoyed cooking on top of just grilling. Will probably only eat out of the house twice a week instead of five or six times a week.
- Drink coffee exclusively at the house. HEB's Taste of San Antonio is the tits.
- Fly anywhere outside of work travel. I'm avoiding airports where I can. I may even drive within five hours of any client I am visiting.
- Avoid travel to large cities. Will likely spend more time vacationing at my parents' condo and enjoy the beach.
Things I will be doing include:
- Probably purchasing more groceries.
- Taking the money from the extracurriculars and pay larger amounts of my student loan monthly.
- Give more to my church. I know they are hurting and will likely hurt for the foreseeable future.
