Steem4nigeria Weekly Contest :- My Financial Recap for the last 7 Days |#burnsteem25 by @sikan-eyen

I myself is faced with the obligation to satisfy my needs too, and though it proves really stubborn, i still try to trim my financial spree in spending, the reason being so i do not go a borrowing, because they say, ' he who goes a borrowing, goes a sorrowing'.

So basically, i try to cut my suit according to my size in management and keep track of my spending for review purposes.

I have chosen 7 days for a recap of my finances starting from the 27th day May to 2nd June, 2022.

---

The things i spent on during this 7 days was :

• Toiletries

• Hair products, &

• Feed items

For clarity sake, i have made these items more practical using the table below, it includes items, price in Nigerian currency (Naira),and the estimated worth in STEEM:

ITEM/EXPENSES	PRICE IN NAIRA	WORTH IN STEEM
Super pack noodles	150	0.966 STEEM
Schweppes mojito	220	1.416 STEEM
Johnson bath soap	350	2.3 STEEM
Venus body cream	800	5.14 STEEM
Face powder	450	2.9 STEEM
Hair treatment	1,200	7.8 STEEM
Toothpaste	250	1.6 STEEM
Activator gel	1,700	11 STEEM
Feeding money to my sick cousin	1, 000	6.5 STEEM
Airtime recharge	1,000	6.5 STEEM
TOTAL	5,120	43.822 STEEM

I got these items during these period just within my neighbourhood, there are a thousand stores within trekkable distances so i didn't use transportation and i have been indoors too.

Unfortunately, i have regrets as i went pass my budget, this was the initial list for the week i wrote out:

But as the days rolled out i had to spend on other products too i didn't actually budget for, like the hair products and handcream.

I have learned and think it is wise to always stick to my budget so that i do not lack later on because as it is right now i am short of money because of my out-of-the-line spending.

So it a positive one for me, in the future i will do better by managing my finances more effectively.

I hope you learnt a thing or two too.
