Surviving anywhere in the world is becoming increasingly hard as many continue to struggle to navigate the harsh economic times.
As a man, you must therefore manage and use your limited resources judiciously instead of splashing it on ridiculous things. You must learn to save and invest your money.
Hence, he is five major things that are money-grabbers you must stay away from spending your hard-earned cash on.
Girlfriend allowance
Don’t let any lady, who’s not your wife, gaslight you into paying any monthly allowance to her in the name of girlfriend allowance. It’s a totally different thing to give some funds to your partner occasionally, however, making it a fixed payment is simply ridiculous.
It’s one of the easiest ways to lose money weekly and monthly. Save your cash!
Betting
How many times have you had cut one on that betting slip? Countless times.
A simple look at your betting history shows how much money you’re pouring into a pit of fire. Maybe it’s time to stop. Not everyone will make it from betting. Stop or bet responsibly.

Sex workers
A few seconds of pleasure is not worth it. Not to talk of the numerous health risks associated with patronising the oldest profession. Better channel those funds into other ventures rather than scouting for the cheapest joints in town.
Hard drugs
The high is temporary. Always temporary. Splashing hundreds and thousands daily to feed a habit that will only ruin your life in the long isn’t worth it. As a man, it’s important to shy away from hard drugs.
Don't sponsor a woman's education
There’s no point taking up someone else's responsibility as a young man trying to find his feet. Paying fees for your woman, someone you are not married to, is not a wise use of your hard-earned money. Think about it. Invest in yourself.
Subscription for premium adult content
It’s shameful as a man not being able to control your sexual desires. And it’s even more shameful that some men pay for premium adult content on social media platforms. Ridiculous! There are better ways to spend your money than subscribing to premium adult content, whether weekly, monthly, or annually. Stop.
Night Clubbing

Weekly clubbing is an easy way to go broke. Drinks are overly priced, entrance fees are expensive, and the pressure to try to impress a crowd of strangers is simply out of order.
It’s an expensive venture sure to lead any man to waste his resources and subsequently go broke. Flee from such wastefulness.
Don’t pay a women’s rent
Now think about it. Why are you paying another person’s rent? No matter how you think about it, you shouldn’t. Make sure you fulfill your personal responsibilities to yourself. Pay your own rent, and if possible, buy or build your house.
Instead of spending on a woman’s rent, think about all the things you can spend that money on. Who will pay yours if you are unable to? Spend on yourself.
