Living in this city, my spending has gotten out of control. I live on 13th street Sunday through Thursday. This has me spending money everyday. I have to buy food and all that good stuff. I also have a shopping problem which doesn’t help me at all. I always feel like I need something to complete my collection of things. In reality I don’t need anything but my heart is telling me to go shopping.
My parents trusted me enough to give me a credit card. This was a huge mistake on their part. As I said, I have a shopping problem. This started when I worked at Abercrombie and being surrounded by clothes every day. I needed all of the new things that we got in the store. But that was okay because I used my own money to get it. But now that I quit my job at Abercrombie, I don’t have any money to use to buy all the things that I want. But the shopping problem is still here. So now I have this nifty plastic thing in my wallet that lets you just swipe it and you can get whatever you want! I don’t pay this bill so I have no idea what the cost of things are. But this card just makes it so easy to get anything your little heart desires.
This acquisition of a credit card has ruined my life. But not really. It’s basically ruining my parents wallets. I don’t buy expensive items with the card but I do buy a lot of inexpensive items. And these really are adding up fast.
I need a reality check with this card. I have seen the bill for this card but I don’t get it. You buy all this stuff with it and then when you get the bill, you only have to pay such a little amount back. How does even work out? The total costs from the card was hundreds of dollars but you only have to pay as little as 25 back. That made no sense to me. Credit cards really confuse me.
