The more money, the more drink.

Since my last post I've been drinking quite regular - most days or every second.
Having regular highish paid work in the trades I've found I'm drinking alot more now.
I was doing alot better with my drinking when I had no money. Lol.
I'm not doing stupid thins when I'm drinking like I use to do but I'm drinking less alot more often.

Hey Kimura,

Whenever I had extra money I would justify having a big night at the bar, like "woohoo! It's time to party!" Instead of using that money to buy something I needed or wanted, or saving it. I started adding up what I was spending in the bar each month, and it was staggering. I can think of nothing more wasteful than spending hard earned money on drugs or booze. Do yourself a favor and save that money for something cool.

I get paid well considering I don't have kids to spend money on and as my salary went up, so did my consumption of food and booze. The truth is that I also neglected my bills so now I am left with paying off loans and credit cards. The only way out is to stop drinking then your life will improve.
