The ‘Absolute’ Eve!

(By the time I post this one, New Year would’ve already dawned; but I actually started writing this on the New Year’s Eve)

This is the day of a yet-another joyous New Year’s eve; and for employees this day is better known as the day of their salary being credited!

I personally consider this issue alerting me on this eve - my wallet going out mercilessly empty when I took out the last three notes of cash for my lunch.

I was not this much pathetic ever before, even when I was pursuing my collegiate education; I'm, this time, forced to mull over this incident for quite a while. Although I don’t have legitimate reasons to substantiate the scarcity, I think excessive confidence (that I’m self-sustainable) and reckless spending have become the primary reasons for this crumble.

This empty-handedness will not seem to pose big problems until when you fall really sick or until when you find a penny missing for the city bus fare after you just board it!

Money-consciousness has now become a global issue and probably quite a handful of countries have already started dealing with this so-called ‘financial crisis’. While you cannot simply apply all the measures being carried out across the globe on your each ‘financial day’, you can take up certain measures to make your wallet weigh still heavy on the last day of any month: 1. Thinking twice before spending a buck on anything, 2. Finding reasonable reasons to lend money to someone, 3. Not investing too much for some time (until you get revived) on things that need periodical overhauls.

May be too difficult to go ahead but this time I am desperate to follow these to prevent myself from going bankrupt.

Though this occasion seems to be terrible on my side, I have learnt a pretty good lesson (probably the best) in this New Year’s Eve! And I forgot to tell you this: Thanks to one of my colleagues who actually bailed me out today with 200 bucks :)
