I’m glad I know how to spend within my means.
Financing a GPU has got to be one of the dumbest things on the planet to do

Top ramen for 3 months ain’t a flex
– rtx 4090: financed
– iphone 14 pro: financed
– instant noodles: believe it or not, also financed
My main expense on Amazon is vup noodle (though I get the fancy ones that are like a $1 ea.
So when I signed up for an Amazon card I technically financed cup noodle!
I mean, I put the 5090 on my credit card so I could get the points – I then paid it off the next day.
Not to dunk on anyone, it’s just a matter of different practices I suppose, but to my European(/Belgian) brain this is nigh incomprehensible 😅 For ‘regular’ consumer goods, I’d only consider buying them if I can afford them, like, right now. Only big expenses like a house would be the exception to that.
Okay, here’s my somewhat controversial take:
Financing stuff is fine, as long as it provides you with actual value and it’s done in a way where it doesn’t overwhelm your monthly budget.
ngl would have been funnier if the instant noodles were the only thing financed
Some of us just have jobs bro
You haven’t seen the TV commercials advertising flex pay for fast food? Times are not great!
