You don’t actually spend money…
You are expending your life energy.
Joe Dominguez and Vicki Robin wrote a cult-classic book called Your money or your life. Initially published in 1992 the book has sold millions of copies and has been updated (at least twice from what I know) and re-released in 2018. The book had a massive impact on me. It changed my relationship with, my thoughts about, and the way I used money.
