I am one of those people who just can’t seem to understand the virtue of saving money, probably because we get more fun in spending them rather than saving them. Besides, I guess that it is my natural instinct to spend as much as I can. However, it may sound a bit odd, but even I saved up some money against my natural instinct because I wanted to buy something special.
The money, I saved, was to buy a pure leather jacket. Of course, one may ask as to why I was really so broke financially that I actually needed to save up some money to buy some kind of jacket? I mean, was I really not earning enough to even pay about a couple of hundred dollars to buy a leather jacket?! Well, the answer is, yes, I was earning enough, probably more than enough, to pay for a jacket without using any saved up money, but I still needed to save up the money because I had spent a lot of money in buying an expensive motorbike only a few weeks earlier.
So, I was essentially “broke” when I wanted to buy a leather jacket which was made of pure and expensive leather. By the way, I wanted to buy a leather jacket because I was essentially getting tired of wearing a winter coat, made of fabrics, which needed regular cleaning. Besides, a winter coat, which is made of fabrics, gets easily worn out, and as such, I needed something more versatile and all-purpose coat. Anyway, it didn’t take me long to save enough money to buy my favourite jacket because I managed to buy it only after a month or so after buying my motorbike.
Anyway, it was important for me to buy that jacket because it was really becoming cold during the winter where I lived in my country. Besides, I also needed to buy it because I would be able to use it for any occasion or in any place during the wintertime without worrying that my winter court would become worn out and old quickly.
