No, I was saying that saving money by spending less isn’t worth it if you don’t have a good quality of life.

That’s entirely dependent on the person in question and what they feel is worth it. For me, it makes sense to make coffee at home instead of buying it from a cafe, for example.

But like I said, if you don’t need to cut back the things you mentioned, I don’t think many would consider there to be any issues in spending money on those.

And, like I said, we need to cut back on things. We’re down to one income in fact. But we still spend money on certain things that don’t make our lives as dismal as they could be. Does that mean we might go more into debt? Maybe. But I’d rather be more in debt than never have anything nice.

I have no idea why you think that’s so odd or unprecedented or whatever.

Maybe it was just the talk about deserving that confused me. If you can afford the tea and smoothies I don’t see why someone would have a problem with it or think you don’t deserve them. If you are struggling financially then of course the suggestion is to cut back where you can. What those things are, I dunno. If you don’t need to cut back on tea and smoothies then of course you don’t have to
