Money, Money, Money

MuslimSisLilSis โ€”

This is sumin I'm always getting into trouble over

Daddy gives us monthy pocket money-(i.e. it should last a month)

I spend it in 1 week :oops:

My motto has always been-if u have money then spend it-if u dont then do without

I NEVER ask people for money-if I need sumin (aprt frm sis)

I always get into trouble for not saving it

SAVE IT FOR WHAT?

I always spend money on my family-I ALWAYS give to charity-but I hate saving

I'm an impulsive spender-I admit I do buy stupid stuff at times

stuff that I dont need or stuff that I could have got cheaper :oops:

and I cant stand stingy people

Whats your money management like?

I don't know of men who like shopping. Another thing, men are impossible to shop for.

The only man I've ever shopped for is daddy...I was at a loss as to what I should buy him.

My dads into computers/gadgets but I don't understand that stuff :?

I went down dad's wardrobe (he's really in to perfumes) and noticed that his Giorgio Armani and CK be/one was almost finished.

I just ended up getting him a bottle of CK be (cos Giorgio Armani was so expensive).

What do guys like? :?:

Well thought gifts for example, I think a pretty neat gift, woould be the last leaf to fall from a tree and the first daffodil of spring.

or a photo of a cloud that looks like a smiling face or a dinosaur.

something Heartfelt.

FDailing that a carton Semi skim keeps the smile on my face. Insha Allah T'ala. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

no just the artistic ones, some just like hot clothes and expensive cars.

MuslimSister โ€” Wed, 7 Dec 2005 - 12:28

Lol! Well dad is not artistic.

He's just into gadgets and perfumes. And shopping for clothes for men is too complicated...I don't understand sizes.

[quote="Darth V-Hayder"]but then again

im no different ๐Ÿ˜›

keep me away from T-Shirts...........especially over-priced ones with designer tags :oops:

im managing to kick the habit.....having no job certainly helps ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

i always spend a little more than my income within any month

bad, i know[/quote]

Men. :roll:[/quote]

lol

Nah, I wouldn't bother buying anything for bloke, we rarely appreciate anything, personally i just prefer the money instead, unless it something decent like books or something. But saying that men do tend to pamper themselves more nowhere days, was with one of my mates and he spend over ยฃ25 on creams and sprays, something i could never imagine doing, plus I know some people spend their weekly wages on a t shirt and jeans, according to them it make them feel good about themselves :roll: .

Ofcourse boy like recieving things, but rarely will appreciate it.

What are his hobbies? anyway normally these hit teh spot, a DVD of his favourite film, a Football, a PS2 game, books if he into reading, topup for his mobile something pratical is normally best. What would be cool if you got a picture of him made up by the people who make them funny pictures, like the one Chris Eubank gives out. There loads of choices really.

But if he a tart like most boys are today, then just buy him thing that any girl likes, sprays, clothes, caps.

That's actually a very complicated formula guys use with girls

Angel โ€” Thu, 8 Dec 2005 - 17:21

I dont knw if this happens to any of you guys but when i spend in the way of charity i always get money back (as in find extra money in my wallet, lying in my drawers etc)

Mum's b'day is in january...i always ask her what she wants, mum's b'day and mother's day are very close, which means she gets two prezzie's...

laila โ€” Thu, 8 Dec 2005 - 19:11

for brothers i buy dvds or p2 games for sister and women friends its easy but my mums the hardest to buy for she always thinks its a waste of money better spent on charity - she just doesnt get the whole presents thing and she buys me pop socks! - they stopped wearing them in the 80's

[quote="yuit"]I placed money near the bottom of my list, too much money will in the end corrupt u, i just want enough to be comfortable and able to live on. I really can't stand people who use their money or occupation as status, which is only able to happen because people allow them and look up too them, thinking they have actually achieve something, even though they have nothing of real substances in their life. The things that are important in people have become secondary such as character. My rant over for today. :wink:[/quote]
