The money is gone

Good day friends
Yesterday, I received 450 euros from my brother, as part of the salary he owes me for the work around his computers. But yesterday I also paid my son's fine of 350 euros.
The washing machine broke down and it will cost me about 50 euros. Definitely no money stays with me.
My head hurts from all this.
Are you a money magnet or are you like me?

I must admit that recently me and Yvonne have managed to save some money.
And I managed to buy a new bike recently.
Our new home only costs a fraction to heat etc than the last one so we have saved on that.
Lockdown has saved us a lot of money as well.
So we are doing ok.
Washing machines breaking down are a real pain.
What is wrong with it?

@JimBo452020 No, it's usually empty, so I don't know if that's the reason.

I do try and plan ahead.
Have you been over loading the machine?

Just like you.
I receive 600 rupees from a friend and the next bill comes up as soon as I receive it.
cant save money at all.
well, I also hate my habit of overspending on things I don't require, so that's another issue.
But recently I saved some money and bought myself a phone.
Writing about this right now is making my head hurt.

@Prabhatsingh Yes, it probably is. And why are you buying unnecessary things?

But look at it this way at least you got the money from your brother otherwise you would be paying it all your pocket.
Until recently we never had much money but now things are better.

@Nevena83 we all have to spend the money we make for our food, clothing and shelter and to help out out kids. Are you making your son pay you back?
It's just different for your because your brother doesn't pay you often enough. Which is a crime really.

@MarshaMusselman No, I don't expect that from my son, but I would really like him to find a job after school in order to have money for himself.
Yes, my brother just wants to keep the money for himself.

It always seems that there's never just one thing that needs to get paid. At least you were able to get your sons fine paid and have the money for the washing machine.

Yes, sometimes I think the end comes only when I have no money. I'm glad I finished paying that fine.

Friend, like you I am a magnet for money, but with the same poles (we repel each other) .LOL.
When I get some extra or significant money, something always comes up that makes me spend it right away.

I am a bit more like you than I wish to be! I had to replace my washing machine last month...now I have the huge bill to deal with. I put the new washer on a credit card.

I am a money magnet most of the time. Why isn’t your son paying his own fine?

He was fined for driving a car that did not have all the necessary documents. I'll leave you a link, so you can read it if you want.
Good day friends I’m not in the best of moods today, so I’m not sure how active I’ll be here. Basically, today my son was stopped by the intervention police....

Thank you. I would also like something to change, but sometimes it seems impossible.

Sadly I am also not a money magnet. Within 15 days of credit of my salary almost 90% vanishes. Some goes into essential expenditure but most of the time it goes into online dress and skin care purchases, that I regret later

Some are a very good magnet for money, but I definitely can't keep the money, there are always unforeseen expenses.
