Limiting Social Media Usage Can Improve Your Finances

[nomad]

You are scrolling Instagram and you need an ad for a T-shirt and you might end up ordering the T-shirt. Or you might be watching videos on Tiktok and you see someone you know with a nice bag and you might want it for yourself. These are just a few examples. Social media usage tempts you to buy things, even the things that you might not actually want. Reducing social media usage is very important to avoid financial temptations.

I agree on that, media is a bad influenced. It is best to limit our usages daily. We will be tempted of the different items sold. I am limiting my time on media.

It is a good thing that I do not usually buy things, either online or offline. I have been practical for so many years now. It is by choice and not influenced by others.

I understand the point that the poster is coming from but people like us that don't take social media seriously won't be victims of such.

Yes, you will come across ads on social media platforms that can be enticing, especially if you lack discipline. Hehe

I rarely use social media, except for tracking the fraud government employees who are cheating me of approximately $18000 annually since 2010.

The only time I make use of my social media is when I am searching for something or I want to make a post. Besides that I rarely visit social media.
