Why money is that for me?

Why is money so easy to spend but so hard to earn? Every single penny matters to me now because I'm really not rich with money. With little money I have I learn to appreciate even coins that come to me.
Maybe for some people money just flow easily but not with me and some unfortunate others. Maybe with lucky few this is not the scenario. For me I struggle with money and when money comes you spend it so fast.
Do you feel the same or no?

@averygirl72 You would think but Jay Z made one good point 99 problems and a female is not one meaning money leads to more problems. Most take the money and deal with the problems but never fixes anything.

@averygirl72 Some people are so lucky, the money seems to drop in their pockets.

You have to be smart with the money you earn because yes, it's definitely easier to spend it than earn it. I'm holding onto my money these days due to rising prices on everything so when I spend I want to make sure it's something I need.

We have to be hardworking and smart so money will come to us. Even if money is easy to get but if we spend it too much we will end in debt and poverty too

We are kind of on the same page here, I also find it easy to spend than to earn.Getting a real job will be better since you get to earn more than the online job. But am working online for inorder to spend on myself so I can't blame myself for spending.

The solution to this is find a stable source of income so you will have enough and even save some

A lot of people have trouble with money and getting more of it because they tend to think of it only as something 'earned,' rather than something that has lasting value if saved, invested, and grown. If you change your mindset to the latter, suddenly having more money becomes much easier.
When you understand the FUTURE value of money, the here and now matters less, because any money earned today has a longer lasting future value attached to it.

Good answer. I think it is not really that money is hard to get it is our ability to produce it. It teaches us to value money and don't just spend excessively because it takes a lot of hard work to earn it

@averygirl72 But that is part of the point. It is only hard, or even necessary to work so hard to get it if we aren't saving or investing it.
A paycheck pays you once. A saved and invested paycheck pays you virtually forever.

Yes, at times in my life it has felt that I never seemed to be able to have enough money, even though I made a lot. My goal for my future is to live on under what I earn, and to save the rest.

For it to be easy we should make a way to have stable income and learn to be frugal

@Kouponkaren That's good to know that you feel you have enough than you feel you always lack from money

@averygirl72 I actually have learned to be much more frugal now than I was when I was younger. Maybe that's why I feel I have enough money now.

At the end of the day we can actually still live decently even with little money

Most people do, they just good liars and for some reason protecting a system that does not work very well for most just because the people they disagree with would probably do well that way. So we all struggle with money while people battle over being called names.

@averygirl72 I do not even like it my pocket to be clear. I was taught at an early age from Streets of San Bernardino, not really. But not San Berdo I did come from streets of St. Louis, but first thing my sister did when we came out here is take us to this guy.He lived there
He goes I drive this car and I dress like this because no one robs a poor person. Scratch that no one robs a poor person unless they the pretending to be rich and may have no house but have a sweet car or wear a nice suit. What they do out here is fake it to you make it and in the hood they look for people like that, way easier to rob than rich people.

Most people feel the same way. It's hard to get but easy to spend away

That's life. Our ancestors didn't have money but used to hunt and gather their food, they spent most of their time thinking about food and shelter. Now we spend most of our time thinking about money.

Money is so important that it affects the quality of our life. We will still be in trouble even if money comes to us easily if we are not smart and wise in using it

Money doesn't come to me easily as well so I guess that has made me a frugal person.

Me too. It teaches me to be simple in life and to be content with little. It made me wise with money
