A Little Selfish For Christmas

How's it going, myLotters? I got a new job that pays higher than my previous one, and I just got my first payout yesterday. The payout includes a "Signing Bonus" so, to cut the story short, I bought myself a new cellphone. It's an LG Optimus L3 E405.burner I'm actually using it right now posting this discussion. It's pretty neat to use even though its OS is Android Gingerbread only, I don't really care as long as it's 2.2 or higher. Enough with the bragging, do you have any plans on buying something for yourself for Christmas? It's okay to be selfish every once in a while. Too much giving can be disease, especially to your wallet.

I think buying for your own is not being selfish unless you go buy stuffs but you still have debts that must be paid. Sine it is your first salary in your first job, that would be fine. When I also had my first payout, I did buy stuffs for me then gave the rest of the money to my mother. It is always your right to think about your self sometimes.

Yep, I guess it's not selfishness after all. I've been a good boy, I guess that entitles me for a new phone, right? So what did you buy on your first payout?

It's not called selfishness. It's called rewarding yourself. Hahaha. Well, I wanted to buy an Iphone 5 for myself but budget still is not enough. So I guess, I have to save a little bit more to buy my dream phone.

You have a point there. Since I was able to find myself a new job with a higher pay, I therefore reward myself with a new phone.

I got myself a shirt dress. Actually, I wasn't really planning to buy anything for myself coz I was more focused on buying things for my loved ones. It just so happened that I was able to save a few so I was able to by something for myself.

That's sweet. I have something in store for my loved ones as well. Although I also love myself that's why I bought the phone. I've always wanted to have an Android phone since 2010, and it was worth the wait. It's great that you also bought yourself something. I know someone who buys stuff for everyone else but not for herself. I think that should be considered a sickness. That's not selflessness anymore if you ask me.

It's not selfishness, it's called rewarding yourself. =) Well, I wanted to buy an Iphone for Christmas.Even just the Iphone 4S but my budget still didn't make it. I guess I have to wait and save a few more months before I can buy my dream phone.
