A direct disciplined from money louder than voice.

Here is another week to bring our creativity into writing. It's that time of the week where we rob our minds together.
But before I start, money is every man's necessity. In fact to live without money is like being half dead. To some extent, I know money can't buy everything but money can solve 99 out of 100 man's problem.
Money does not bring happiness but money supports happiness let me put it this way.

To me I felt money was something not to be overemphasized. Not until I left my parents house to start higher institution. Before this time, I was already used to spending money without budget, spending money without thinking how and when the next one will come.
So I carried this lifestyle to uni.
Few weeks after resumption, I ran out of money. Like...how did my money finished. I started tracing back all my transactions. And I noticed the amount of money I have spend. I was shocked.

At this point, I could not call my parents, it's just few weeks to resumption and my parents will only send money for my up keep at the end of the month..
The thought of how do I survived? crippled me. How do I sort out my bills.?
As this thought ran through my mind with no solution. I started feeling feverish, I felt sick. This time not malaria but moneria😅

I wasn't exposed to borrowing and I didn't know how to go about it. The only thing that helped me was that my food stuffs were still intact.
I discipline myself by forced to eat cooked food. I no longer ordered food.

The little snacks I used to eat, that will cost about two thousand Naira was replaced with cooked food. I no longer stroll around...
Like... Money just disciplined me.
Few days later, I reach out to my parents, that I needed money and they transferred some money to my account. That was how I became well.

I learnt my lesson the hard way though, to always have my budgets and not exceed it.
With this I was able to stay without being broke.
