How much money will give you financial fulfillment?

Everyone wants to make money. But how much money will make you fulfilled differs from person to person. When I was younger, I had a figure in my mind but as I grew older, I realized that I keep changing my figures majorly because of the kind of economy I find myself in and the depreciating nature of my currency too.

My first job paid me somewhat felt like a lot of money in my head. But when I started receiving that amount of money, I realized that before the month ran out, I had exhausted the money and even gone into debt too. Those days weren't really to hard as it is now. If it was now, I wouldn't dare take that kind of amount for the job I was doing because it won't even be enough for me for two days not to talk of a whole 30 days.

My spending increased likewise my needs too. I heard from a podcast sometime ago that as your income increases, so does your needs too. Those words didn't make sense to me until recently when I started spending on a daily basis for things that really needed to be sorted out. I can tell you that I want more money now and that's why I have delved into having multiple streams of income.

For a lot of persons, it is with so much struggle that they can afford a decent meal. While for others, they find it very easy to eat whatever they want to eat, whenever and wherever. I cannot particular say a particular amount of money brings fulfillment to anyone but I can say that if you can cater for some certain needs then you may say that you are fulfilled.

If you can take care of your feeding, clothing and shelter, then you are living a fulfilled life. This is so because these are the basic needs of everyone. Every other thing comes after that. One thing that I have noticed too is that people care more about material things and neglect their health.

Medications can be expensive if we don't also take care of our health early enough. So I will add this to the list of things too.

Every other thing can be managed easily or even cut off for the main time if the resources aren't available to purchase them at the moment. However, while some people can manage with whatever income they get others may find a reason to work harder to increase the income they get. This is generally an issue because for me, I think that big money, big spending. But that doesn't mean that aiming for an increase is a taboo.

Financial Fulfilment for me is the ability to be able to cater for first my basic needs. This perception may differ from persons to persons based on what income they receive. If you sit down and think of how you spend, you will notice that sometimes you spend more than you should and if you discipline yourself enough to save some money that comes into your hands, I think at the end of the day, you will be happy with yourself.

So many people spend not because it is really important but because they just want to do it. For instance if I have a very good phone, why do I need to keep buying brands of phones all the time when all I do with the one I have is just to make and receive calls. You have to spend money widely if you want to be fulfilled financially.

Financial fulfillment is 100% possible. There is no particular amount of money that can make you financially fulfilled. Just spend according to your income and cut down on unnecessary expenses. That way you can be happy with yourself. What truly matters is your peaceful and happy life.
