Most of the times while studying I found people enjoying their lives, chatting, eating, gossiping and most importantly spending. During those days I thought what a life would have been if I had few thousands of money as freebies to spend and enjoy my daily life.
As the time passed on I completed my graduation and got admitted to one of reputed institute of my country, an IIT. I took a sigh of relief, not only did I got more self-confidence but as well we were getting a grant of 12.4K monthly of which no one was my sharer. I used to spend them as and when, where and on what. This was the time I enjoyed most in financial terms. After my post graduation I started working at TCS via campus placements at a decent pay attest 10 or more times of what I had as my stipend. During these fun times I started realising that with greater autonomy there come some responsibilities and these responsibilities started to overtake my fun mode. Thereby, I started acting more responsibly. Overall I think there are different phases of life of which money is an essential ingredient and once shall suffice all.
