I support a local CPA. We also have a good chat while I’m there

Reply to comment by pzzia02 in LPT: A good financial habit to get into is treating money as hours of work. Ask yourself how many hours of work something would take if you buy it. The awareness of the amount of time you put into purchases helps reduce compulsive spending. by humvee911
Is that your regular hourly or adjusted after taxes and fixed expenses?
I’d recommend figuring that number out, and use 8 hour days (or whatever your usual shift is) to determine how long it would actually take for you to earn that money, after paying your other obligations (rent, utilities, food, transportation, etc)
Unless you’re living at home and don’t have bills to pay, my guess is that it would take at least 2-3 months to earn enough extra to pay for $1,000 phone if your non-adjusted hourly wage is $9.

Also, if they’re separate, I don’t know which utensils I’ll need until the end. Sometimes need all 3 but usually just need a fork.

I paid $65 for my first thumb drive: 128 mb.
That’s megabytes, not gigabytes…
