Money Management (Guys VS Girls)

saw this topic debate held on the sgforums site. lol. girls mostly spend money on appearance, fashion, outlooks. guys spend their money on IT stuff? i shud help them edit the topic. guys mostly spend money on hobbies? lol. electronic gadgets, cars, stamps, models, games, computer IT stuff and etc.. but as when we reach a certain age.. we'll find tt we dun really have much time on hobbies and stuffs. work whole day n accompany partners or frens after work. so the result will become : guys mostly spend money on girls orrr to impress girls. haha. most of the pple in the forum thinks tt they spend 50:50 fashion:hobbies. coz nowadays looks DO matters. no matter which line u're in or who u wanna impress. for me..

i think i spend most on food! n life enjoyment. haha hobbies wise would be my 'Lao po' and computer stuffs. fashion.. just good enough to stay in trend would do. lol.

most guys wun have good financial management bah (im 1 of them) jus like when sum1 ask u to buy something for them at sheng shiong for 8.40 jus becoz the mama shop nearby sells 8.70. for me i would tell him/her "i pay u 30c -_- u buy at mama shop bah". normally guys dun really look out for discount or shop around for diff price n offer for the same item. any reasonable price will do. grab n go. result in "dunno how come my money gone so fast leh -___-" abit abit here n there sums up to a mountain! lol!!

girls shud be diff bah. coz they ENJOY shoppppppeng! even window shopping can can last them whole day longgg -_- financial mangement wise, they're much much better. "everyday shop everyday shop but how come they will nv get poor de!" lol from some real life example i've seen. they work during schdays n even in holidays to save up money for the shopping spree. n most gals always "Diet" pocketmoney can save abit here n there. they dun really spend money on inpractical, unnecessary stuff. so most gal shud have at least quite a sum of money by 18yr old. once a while go out with fren splurge on food, fashion and movies.

not a must but most gentleman would treat a lady for a meal or movie when they're going out. this is one of the factor why guys shud work harder n earn more than girls!

last but not least. Mood. one of the biggest factor where money is concern. most pple spend money depending on mood. when u're happy, u tend to be more generous with ur expense. giving treats and buying gifts. oso when u're not happy or rather sad. u will go all out to poison urself with junk food, alcohol, or maybe even 'charity' to singapore pools. Be it angry, emo, or moody, try not to make ur wallet suffers. every single cent comes from blood n sweat of ur parent and even u urself.

a simple normal handphone of 200 bucks will take around 80hrs youth of a teenager working in macdonald with base pay of 2.80/hr!

all these are jus my opinions. might not be true. no offence.
come to think of it. its almost the same as Time Management (Guys VS Girls) to be continued.
Philosophy
Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so love the people who treat you right, forget the ones who don’t and believe that everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said that it would be easy; they just promised it would be worth it.
