1. Which of the following could you do without? TV, Computer, Mobile Phone.
I think I’m like the majority to go with TV. It’s nothing but a giant computer monitor nowadays. I often watch my shows on my phone and only turn to the TV when my phone is nearly out of battery or my eyes are becoming blurry from watching on the tiny screen.
I can’t live without my laptop, though. I prefer to do my typing on a physical keyboard and it’s easier to edit photos on my laptop than on the phone since I need to blow the photos up to see the details on the 27-inch screen beside my laptop.
2. Do you have a lot of old photographs in a box, or did you put them in albums?
I have lots of old photographs in a box. I tried to fit most of them into photo albums when I scanned them into the computer last Christmas but there were so many duplicates that I just don’t know where to put them.
3. What was the first thing you bought for yourself when you started work?
As an adult, I truly don’t remember buying anything that special, perhaps some fancy groceries for myself? As a child, the first thing I bought after earning money from babysitting and other gigs were music CDs.
4. What is the biggest thing you have bought that did not require finance?
What is considered big? Let’s see. I had to finance my house, my car. Hmm… I think the biggest thing I bought without finance was my braces. I was going to finance – make a down-payment and pay the rest over the life of braces – but I decided to make the full payment in cash using the money I saved the last 3 years so I don’t have to worry about it.
This is Another Story 
Are braces that expensive in America?

I paid almost $6000 for mine a few months ago. I think that’s quite a bit of money.

Oh yes, it’s too much. When my kids got them it was 60000 Rs, and at that time $1 = 100 Rs. So it was $ 600! And we paid every month.

My phone is my favourite but my laptop is also a must. I can do without TV.

I must also admit that I don’t need a TV because I can see news and stuff on my phone, so I am not avoiding the content, mostly the dreary adverts and other content I can live without.

There was too little of interest to us so it wasn’t a hardship. We can catch up on the news on our laptops or the radio when in the car.
