>>10023847This is why you have to budget. I've been in your spot, spending money on toys in the past.
Go research the bucket principle, and maybe read or watch summaries of The Richest Man in Babylon, which is a book about money that's pretty great, and features the Bucket Principle. If you follow this principle, you'll always have money put aside for the toys you want.
I'll give you the skinny so you're not completely lost: Basically, you put your money in buckets related to percentage of your own money:
60%=Everyday Necessities(Food, Water, Electricity, Bills, Taxes, Etc.)
Then the remaining 40 percent of your money is what you save up or spend, and you do it with the following 4 Buckets or categories with 10% of your funds each:
>Emergency Funds(Self-Explanatory)>Recreation Funds(Money you would spend on things you like for fun, Toys for example)>Investment Bucket(Money to put away or use in ways to make more money or save it, could be gold, a side-hustle, or bitcoin, Stocks, etc.) >Learning Bucket(Self-Explanatory)
