Ill probably get roasted for this but it’s a genuine thing I think of a lot. Me and my husband both work, he works full time me part time. Until recently things had been really rough, everything kind of snowballed, planning a wedding, having a baby, mat leave, then almost immediately after Covid hit, I work in an industry which was quite heavily affected so was furloughed for a very long time. So ended up in a great deal of debt, missing payments etc it was hard work. Anyway my husband got a new job earlier this year and earns a considerable amount more now. We are paying all our debt back and thing seem more manageable. We now have, what I think of of as, a good amount of disposable income however looking at other people’s lifestyles it feels like it doesn’t go far enough. I constantly see people, who I know will have a similar income to us, making huge splurges all month, £100 here and there on clothes, brunch’s with friends, holidays, nights away. In my head feel like our disposable income should cover this, but it doesn’t.we don’t do anything extravagant through the month but feel like we have nothing left at the end of the month. I feel like something needs to give but I’m really not sure what we can cut back on. I’m not sure what the point in this other than I feel like I’ve constantly got terrible fomo and comparing myself to others all the time.
