Your Type
After buying something, a profit-and-loss statement automatically pops up in your mind: 'How much this cost, what my disposable income is, what percentage this represents, how long to fill the gap'. You enjoy spending — you just need to balance the books after. This calculating behavior keeps your finances clearer than most people around you, but also means you often go through a mild self-blame period after purchases. What you need to learn isn't how to calculate but sometimes to acknowledge: 'I was happy when I spent this, and that happiness itself has value' — then close the ledger.
