There are things that we don't need for ourselves or business but we still buy them for future uses.
Have you ever bought thing you don't need in expectation that you or your business will need it later?
I've bought things which are not the current need of the business but
bought it because it's on sale.

I've already outgrown this phase of buying things I don't need. When I first started working, I realized the importance of money. Earning money is difficult, especially these days. Inflation is a real thing.

I didn't buy such things because if I don't need it, then it is a waste of money.

There comes a time when you may borrow or buy certain kinds of things in your life and then regret it later. This is why it is much wise to think before you spend.

That's what we call unbudgeted spending. I don't do it. I just buy what I need per time.
It is extremely possible to buy whatever you do not need but you don't have to because it could be a waste of money and everyone need to be prudent with spendings and it's very important.

I think I can relate to these, I buy what I don't need in given moment because most of the time when I have these things that I really want to buy and need, I buy some extra numbers of it for future usage, in that way if I consume the first one, I wont worry about the next stock that I need to use.

I used to do this before but not anymore. Ever since I realized how hard it was to make money, I only buy the things that I need.

Yes, I sometimes buy things that I don't need right now when shopping online, but I will need them in the future, for reasons of saving on shipping costs. But I rarely do it when shopping offline.

Sometimes Iike to buy what I fi not need. It's called attraction. If I'm attracted with the item I would gladly buy it and never regret it like a new bag, despite I already have many but I still buy.

It is not a bad move. I bought a scale which I didn't need to use immediately because I knew I would be needing it in the future. By the time I needed to use it, the price had increased two times.

Yes, there are instances when I buy things that I do not need at that time. I just like it and just keep it at home. Most of the time I buy only what is needed at home and for my personal self.

I do not always buy things that I do not need but there are times when I buy things I will need but not at the moment so I just buy them in case I don't have money

It becomes a waste of money if you buy what you don't need. You have to be sure that the thing would yield utility for you before you buy. Unless you know it would be useful to you in the future.

During a past construction project, I intentionally bought more pieces of roofing sheets, based on the idea that I would use these materials in future projects. I made this decision so as to save myself from the hassle of paying transportation costs in future.
