This a
challenge to not spend any money “Aside from the bare essentials (paying the
mortgage, phone bills and an extremely tight food budget).” Finding other
things to use, like free stuff, or go to food banks, having fun with free
things. This is to help you save money for if you want something, or save it
for a Childs future. It’s a hard challenge to do but many have done it. (http://time.com/money/4661049/this-british-woman-went-a-year-without-spending-heres-how/ )
What should be changed, and what's wrong with it?
I feel like they don’t have to be so
excessive about not spending, if you need a towel, get a towel, if you need a
shower or food, take a shower, buy more food, keeping yourself at a tight
budget and basically starving yourself is wrong, you have no free time what so
ever because of shopping and getting around, if you only have ripped clothing
or not enough, go get clothing, spending stuff to keep yourself at full health
is not over spending or need to not spend on, you need that.
if you’re doing no
spending it should be no spending of going out for food, or getting gifts, or
stuff to put on the walls. You need dressers to keep your clothing, you need a
good bed so that you sleep comfy, go to the doctors when you need to, and you
need medication. This stuff shouldn’t be taken lightly and thrown away because
of a short budget, keeping yourself healthy first.
Quotation on why not.
"it forces
people to re-evaluated their spending and identify the purchases they can
reasonably part with. But there’s a balance between curbing your spending
habits and joining the monastery, and it’s choosing a financial plan that helps
you save without costing you your well-being” ( https://melmagazine.com/the-misery-of-the-no-spend-year-71117cc0e4dc )
