2️⃣116: 1 More Beer (Nobody Knows) 🫤
everyone's going through something

That was a great dinner, y’all up for one more beer?
I can do one more beer, I guess. I can only spend like $20, max. But nobody has to know that. If I go over that, I’m fucked. I definitely cannot use the credit card. That’s okay, though. They’re cheap here, only $6. I could have two beers, not three because I still have to tip and that would go over the $20.
You got a new job? That’s incredible.
I’m still looking.
You’re moving back home? That’s the dream.
I’m moving back home, too
(sort of).
I could go over $20 if I use the bank account for bills. I know I’m not supposed to touch that one, but the student loan payment went through, the electricity and water bill for this month also went through. I already paid the rent, I paid the minimum on each credit card, I paid the other monthly loan payment, and the gas tank is full. I have enough saved up to make four monthly payments, but in four months I can save up for another four months, or two at least. One month for sure. Whatever, it’s no big deal. What’s one night having a little fun? You can’t stop yourself from having fun forever. But you also have to make those payments. But it’s just one night, you’re not going to ruin everything in one night. You just need to stick to $20. Be disciplined. Just get a beer or two, it’s no big deal. You can’t stop living your life. This moment is only one moment. That’s how it starts, that’s how moments add up. “Just one moment” turns into several moments, and you look back, and you’re worse off than when you started. Fine, then, just one more beer. You won’t even spend $10. Now that’s being responsible. You got this. Don’t worry, you’ve worried enough. You made your plan. Now, relax and have fun. Just one more beer.
Okay, there’s four of us and I got the first round, David, this rounds on you.
Of course, no problem, I got it.
