Beyond The Empty Wallet

There is nobody that has never experienced being broke before so it's nothing new to everyone. In this kind of era that we are now, no one is ashamed of being broke because life keeps getting harder day by day but then we all are doing our best to keep moving.

As a man, being broke shouldn't be a surprise because there are many responsibilities, we all have family to care for so spending the last cash on them is not something that should bother a man.

As for me, even if I am broke I don't mind as long as I can provide for my family. It's better to be broke by taking care of your family rather than being broke by showing off and your family is suffering.
I can go any length to provide for my beautiful family even with my last money.

Unstoppable desire despite being broke

Aside from providing for my family, there is one thing I can't do without even if I have to stay hungry and buy it. This is Data.
We are now in an era where nothing is funny even life itself is not funny anymore so staying without data on my phone might switch my mood to something else and instead of letting that happen I would rather buy data and be hungry.

I work with data because there are some projects that I get online, and aside from my work my blogging matters to me a lot and if I don't have data on my phone I can't be active online.
There was a period when I skipped work since I had no projects to do; instead, all I did was sleep and wake up.

So during that time, I took my blogging seriously. At first, I made sure to buy enough data to keep me online always and it helped me a lot during all the time I was at home.

But, there was a time I went from being broke to being poor.

What happened was that all the money I was saving was used for one particular project I have been pursuing for a very long time and by the time I put in all the money I have with me I was left with nothing. Not even data money and that was when I realized that if you still have money for data, you can still make yourself happy rather than having nothing.

You can find something on the internet that will make you happy, and nothing makes me happier than to see my wallet smiling at me. My wife noticed how sad I was and told me, "This is happening everywhere so don't think about it too much," as if her words had already entered my head; as a result, I got positive and looked for a way to buy data.

While I was looking for a way to do subscriptions on my phone, one of my friends that was doing well with his business called to ask for my help financially, and I was like being broke is now what we must learn how to live with because life keeps changing every day. And I guess brokenness is what is invoked nowadays.

Everyone has the potential to become bankrupt at any point, but the most important thing is to avoid being poor.
