You need to be alive to fit all these.
We get things done sometimes even when we don't want to as we have no option but to do them.
These things are what keeps us going in life and makes us feel alive as if we don't do them we will feel like we don't exist on this planet.
One recurring expenses i have recorded in my list is the fact that i pay money everyday to my work place, as quiet as this may look but i have sat to look into it and discovered it's a whole lot of money but then there is no option as this has to be done if a man must really survive then he needs to work since that is what fits in the every bill that I spend on including the transport fare to work this is a most to do.
I once sat with someone who asked a question that sounds stupid but it was a crucial question that we couldn't comprehend what the answer should be.
“Do we eat to live or do we live to eat?”
That question I leave for whoever is interested to give an answer to it. As for me, since the two questions have the two important elements that a man will ever need for life to go on, then I don't really care which comes first for the fact that they complement each other that makes it reasonable to me.
I spend more money on food as it is a necessity in life weather eating to be alive or alive to eat that doesn't stop me from eating what my minds is craving for but most times i don't have to prepare these meals myself as i see them as time wasting so i just move into a restaurant and order that which i want to eat, eat and quietly go to my house but then this cost even more than preparing it myself. As a plate of food i eat from the restaurant can almost prepare a pot of that same food with just a little increment in the cost.
We can save for the future but then we also have to save our lives to see the future so all these are very important in our day to day living.
As we do that we also remember our loved ones who are not close to us. We need airtime to be able to reach them. This is another compulsory expense that must be done. I call people almost everyday if not everyday to be able to keep and maintain a relationship that has been established already.
There are so many others that i can talk about but this 3 are the most recurring responsibilities that has always get my money flying like no man business what then shall we say?
Only the living has even got the opportunity to spend on things like this.
I give thanks to the creator for even giving me life to be able to carry out all these.
Transportation expenses can be quite shocking when you actually calculate it over a long period. It's easy to ignore it when you're spending N500 to 1k everyday but by the time you calculate it for a month, you will discover that it is a lot. Some people spend over a quarter of their salary just on transportation, especially during this period where fuel price has gone up and transport fare has increased
With the hike in the price of transportation, I am left wondering how you manage to cope.
