May have lost their jobs and the shopping tradition has changed. May also prevent themselves from going out. However, I've seen some people being not affected at all. They seem to splurging as usual. What about you, my dear Mylotters?

I need to save money because we don't know when we can come back from adversity.

I don't think so. No one isn't exempted from this dreaded disease of COVID-19.

Spend moderately. I am not really affected so far but there are still possibility that I might. Future is an unknown prospect after all. You may never know what's really in store for you.

The pandemic doesn't seem to have affected my splurging--it's more my new home and finances being different.

Our finances have grown even more since the pandemic. We don't eat out or shop like we used to. Had to open another savings account.

We are retired so we haven't really been affected at all. Our COVID numbers are low too so that helps us go on as normal.
