Sometimes Being an Adult Sucks (kinda gaming related, all finances)

[vlad321]

I never understood this. I once asked some co-workers "why do you invest?" and then they said "o make more money from the investments." Then I asked, "so what do you do with that money?" and they just said "invest it again for more money."

Let me tell you, they were a smart bunch with masters and PhDs all. They also had unpaid houses, cars, however not that much debt outside of that. That said, money is not for investing and saving. Once you have that cushion for the 7 year WTF moment (statistically something horrible will happen to every 7 years that will require a bunch of money to be used up), the rest should be your spending money.
