it was shocking when he said that..

He probably just started earning money finally and is happy that he finally has his own money to spend and do not know how to save or make better use of it. Give him another year or so and he will likely learn once he has more responsibilities such as bills to pay.

The money is his to spend since he earns it. The lifestyle is his to choose. When he goes broke before the next payday, the problems are his to shoulder. It is a matter of his personal choice. Just be thankful you have a living example of how NOT to live like. He will probably not listen to you or anyone about being prudent in money management because he has lots of other friends who think otherwise. Hopefully, in due time, he learns through the hard knocks of life.

I think it is always good to budget in our lives and budgeting helps to spend money that we earn and to spend money wisely. I always think that hard earned money should be spend wisely and believes that it is good to spend money and to use it carefully.

Obvbiously no one has taught him the value of having monery and how to handle it or else he cam from a rich family or else he is a fool. Probably a fool. We have to budget and try to keep to a budget but the budget must be realistic. Anyone in today's world who has a job should endeavour to keep it. |he could have a night out maybe once a month and that is that. Nothing wrong with young people sacrificing now for success later

enjoying with what you have earned is fine but there is a limit for everything. if one spends all his earnings in such a careless manner then god only can save him. life is full of uncertainity we dont know what will happen tommorow. so its better to save a portion of our earnings for our future needs. and as humans we should not only think about ourselves. we should spend a portion of our earnings for charity....please kindly advise the guy that when several millions of people die due to starvation its not nice to spend money like he does....

I think he's still immature. From what you said he seems to have just completed college, which means there is a chance he never worked a day in his life. I have seen many people like that, who like to show off what a great life style they have, and how great their life is than others around them. In most of those cases, the person is either too rich to care about the money, or the person believes the illusion that that's the best way of life and keeps doing that even if it's hard to make ends meet and end up taking loans, or the person is just lying to look hip. In this guys case I think he's the third type of person. New to job, new atmosphere, new people and new life. He must have thought that would make him look cool or something. Some people do that, when they feel the pressure for the need of blending in. He won't be the same person after a few months in the new office. I for one think twice before spending on anything. Spending on things we need and things we love, is fine. Because in the end we are striving for a happy contended life, not a life filled with just money and no time to even spend it. But then again, I guess it is different for every person.

He obviously never had to live without money to be spending that way. He will soon find himself living without it though if he's not careful. I mean we all probably make purchases we really shouldn't to some extent. I mean I buy things I really don't need, but I also don't go on a spending spree. I'm usually fairly careful with what I buy. I have to live on a week to week basis, as we don't have jobs that allow us much room to save money. I could probably save some if I cut back, but it's hard the way the economy is, but if it came down to it I would. Needless to say though, this man really should stop and think about what he spends. I am usually good about buying things on sale. My BF hates shopping with me, because I take my time and look at sales and etc. but it pays off. I have saved a ton of money on clothes by buying them on sale. The point you can live fairly reasonably and have room to spend on some leisurely activities if you're careful and don't make a habit of going and spending every last dime you make on such luxury things. If you save in some areas you can spend more in others, but to just go out on a spending spree like that every week is crazy. What he spends in a week sounds like something I would spend once a year for a vacation if I'm lucky.

Well first of all he could be lying because normal people don't spend if they don't have. He could be just trying to brag about his lifestyle and how he lives it up. If he is really spending money like that with no regard then he is mentally and financially inmature. People who do this and I have known a few are so aggravating because then when they are broke they go around looking for a loan from someone. When I worked before my kids and after I always made sure I paid all the bills and there was food on the table. I could never go and spend knowing money was tight.

Pity on people like that, on my first visit to ship as Junior Engineer,i worked for eighteen hours non stop and then after four hours rest,i had to clean bilges for two hours. This was just after three days of my joining.That day i realized how hard it is to earn money.That guy has not seen harsh end of the life,sometimes you learn just through the hard way.

Its very sad to see people like this in a country where people don't even have money for a meal a day.People should know the value of money and should always think about their future and family.I value money a lot and try to save as much as possible and think more than twice before I buy even a gadget or stuffs very necessary.Its very much essential to use money wisely because you cant say when it will be with you and when one will struggle to earn it back or without it.

I do not earn too big, but whatever I earn I make savings and do expenses within control. Even when I would get pocket money from my father I was very careful with it. After I started earning on my own, I began making a budget and keeping an account of every single rupee that I spend. I feel painful to see people spending money lavishly and that too on things that affect their health adversely. I wish people could value money and spend it on their family or loved ones and for their own well-being. Instead of wasting the money in night clubs he should plan holidays with his family.

Hi yes some people spend lavishly and also make fun of those who dont do like that. Spending should be in a limit and we should learn to save even when we earn small amount. I have seen people saying that they will save when they earn some big amount but they wont save when they earn small amount. I dont agree with this. No matter how much we earn we should learn to save first .saving doesn't meant that we should not eat or dress properly. Because i have seen people making fun of those (especially the young ones) who speak about savings ,they try to pull their legs and hurt their feelings.

Well, I would say that he's such a big spender. But it really depends on the person, If he loves to live his life to the fullest then he must have a lot of money, having such lifestyle, clubbing and everything. Let's face it, majority of us plans for the future and budgets our hard-earned money. There would come a time when this guy would get bored with his lifestyle and hopefully when he comes to that point its not too late for him to get back on track. Come to think of it, maybe he was just saying that, he must have the hot for you and wants to impress people in a totally uncool way =p

A happy-go-lucky guy maybe? he has the right to choose whatever life he wants to live in :) YOLO, he is just basically enjoying his life to the fullest :D Each of us has different way of enjoying ourselves :D But as for me, i cant afford to do as i please as i dont have enough money to do so :D LOL

Obviously he is not worried about not having money. He must come from a rich family. But even so, he must need to learn to value money so that he may have something to use in cases of emergency. \ With this kind of lifestyle, he seems to be buying friends to have a life.

Maybe he wanted to experience the other taste of life which is worry free and free from prisoners of money, he's good in my own opinion since I myself is locked up for the needs of money and always weighing things on how to spend I know somebody who has the same scenario as he, and it really amaze me in some manner
