Transcript

I don't buy things unless I have to and that's how I maintain a steady bank account. The last time I bought a pen? I hope never. I never buy pens because there's always a place giving out a free pen. Let's talk about it. Let's see what pens I have. I won this nostalgic, like, multicolor pen. Remember these? This pen is from a restaurant called Waypoint. Cool. This restaurant is from my job. It's called Josephine's. Never bought it. But it's in my rotation. Two pens from my wonderful church called Hope Christian Church. Another pen from a consultation group, no idea. I just grabbed it and used it. It's not stealing, it's free marketing. And this lead pencil, I never buy lead pencils, so I probably just got this for free and kept it. I'm not buying random stuff and keeping what is useful for me. Stay frugal.
