new month, but last month I was a dummy bitch. So let's see how much I spent in the month of June. Like always, it's not good. Don't judge me please. My income is just from my jobs. I don't have multiple streams. Don't know how to get multiple streams. Maybe I'll start a corporate clothing brand or something, I don't know, because I can't find anything I like, but let's just pack that for now. My subscriptions, can't say that word properly, okay? I spent a lot of money on subscriptions this month. To be fair, I was quite depressed, so I just stayed home and watched a lot of TV. I also accidentally paid for Claude, but I don't know why, because I didn't get more utilization. So that was a waste of money. On bills, I spent $1,808.65. I paid for quite a few cancellation fees for boxing classes, because again, I was very sad, decided to go to a boxing class, woke up, didn't want to go to the boxing class, cancelled, had to pay a fee. Between $9 fee is a bit diabolical, in my opinion, but kudos to up-state, they must be racking them in. As usual, I did overspend in my everyday spending. Somehow it came out to $3,120.59. That is crazy work. I did break a window in the apartment, so I had to pay for that. That was $440. I did not anticipate on spending. Was I stupid in the way I broke it? Yes. But that was last month. Okay? So the groceries, they do look a little low, but then I look at the takeout balance and that is crazy. Again, for one person. But remember, I was quite depressed, so I was in no mood to cook. And then I also cancelled my credit cards, so I had to pay $1,100 to pay that off. And then I also gave my sister $1,800 to pay for something for her kid, because I don't like giving Christmas presents and birthday presents anymore, okay? They need to learn to not be materialistic and expect things from me. I am willing to pay for some of the education, I am willing to pay for, like, an iPad kid, no more. Go play with some dirt, okay? I will not give you money for electronics. So yeah, I spent a little bit of money this month, um, $8,024 to be exact. I didn't earn that much, just to be clear. So I am well and truly in the red this month. I don't really have anything else to say, so I will see you in July spend.
