What is your budget breakdown, or in other words how much of your budget do you spend on hobbies or video games or fun things?
The vast majority of my money goes to spending on takeout, and my recent weight gain happily attests to the same. Our full time cook can't, and after eating her cooking for 18 years of my life I can hardly stand it.
When it comes to my other hobbies, the costs were front loaded, my current PC is worth about $2k going by new part pricing, and was built up over the years.
I rarely buy games, even with regional pricing they're expensive af for Indians, so ongoing costs are minimal. I'm not immune to the allure of a Steam sale after all so there's a bunch just collecting dust in my inventory.
Of course, I'm not working at this very moment, but that's from sheer laziness as my GMC application is processing rather than because I can't. It still annoys the fuck out of me to work for like $3 an hour here even if thanks to PPP it's not as bad as it sounds.
But yes, having any particularly involved hobby is difficult on Third World salaries, but the end of that is nigh.
I believe in you! Keep fighting the good fight you’re clearly intelligent and driven enough to get to America where you can make more money and spend it all on bullshit like we do.
I usually pirate games myself just because I’m cheap, but I just got my hard drive nuked for the first time. Kind of sad, hoping it’s recoverable.
Backups are important. I recommend keeping two copies of your data at home and one in your car.
