Ever wonder?

Have you ever sat down and wondered how others live their lives? I often wonder how people get by with seemingly less money than others yet continue to live full happy lives. Now don't get me wrong, I know that money isnt everything but nowadays with the cost of gas and everything that goes along with those rising costs... It seems close to impossible to get out there and take the vacations, the nice dinners etc. that we all deserve. Granting that I have a unique financial situation where I really dont have control over my money (read I screwed up and now a financial advisor... Mom... takes care of things for me). It must just be that that makes it seem so much harder for me... I know I have the money but I can't use it.... say i think that PS3 game looks really badass but unless I have an extra bit of cash from my weekly "allowance" then its not something I can get.

Now Im sure you are saying to yourself well thats good for you... it will keep you from spending frivolously. I can agree with that however it would just be nice to splurge now and then and not have to wait for my tax return or company bonus. Everyone splurges even during strict diets people splurge so they can feel guilty about what they ate and go back to their diet. I feel the same about my situation. Hell I've had an outline of a tattoo on my arm screaming to be finished for well over a year now... I WANT IT FINISHED... but at $300 its a bit steep to ask my Financial Advisor...Mom... for the cash.

I dont know how others feel, and I know that I'm not going to get any feedback but I thought I would just vent a little.

Anyhow I'm glad that people can be happy living their lives as they do and I know its not just me that has problems.
