This was an interesting comment the other day where a person asked to meet up to discuss about a potential project. It was suggested that we meet at a restaurant. He then made a comment how he will take out the order and we can talk somewhere outside as he felt I usually do the smart thing financially and not spend money dining out when I don\u2019 have too. It\u2019s was funny hearing that because I usually don\u2019t order anything when I meetup with people at like a cafe which makes people think I don\u2019t like the place.<\/p>\n
I mean in reality if I knew money was never going to be an issue even one hundred years down the road who wouldn\u2019t like to splurge and eat some delicious meals correct? Even when I visit things like a fair I often don\u2019t purchase the food and beverages as spending say $5 on bottled water as an example feels a bit excessive. If I had to dine out in those cases I would often go find a local business that would be way cheaper.<\/p>\n
If I was dining out for the experience then that is a little different. Because there it\u2019s basically like treating it as a form of entertainment or life experience in many ways as if you were taking a trip somewhere. Then technically you can save money in some aspects since you would normally spend money for your daily meal where that is a part of the experience. I wouldn\u2019t normally have the mindset of dining out to a $20 meal as my regular food budget. Because I find that can encourage you to have the bad habit of dining out too much where you justify it by saying you need to eat as it is essential.<\/p>\n
Needing to eat for the day and wanting to the convenience and luxury of going to a restaurant is different in my view.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
