Ah yes that moment when the email comes in saying a game from your wishlist is on sale. You've been waiting for two years for the $39.99 game to drop in price. Damn, $7.99, still too much. I guess I'll wait a little bit longer till it drops further and I can afford it.

And that one game that's been $24.99 for as long as you've wanted it, staring you in the face. Maybe someday, maybe...

I started removing games from my wish list when they would drop to insane lows multiple times and I would still not pick them up. 🙃

I got $4.36 in my Steam wallet from selling cards and crap. Its gotta cost at most, that much.

If you can eat 1.5 meals a day and pay rent, you should really be spending your money on food.

There are other things you can do for fun that cost nothing like going for a run, working out, going to a library, borrowing board game or cards from the library to play with friends….

I think if i have to spend every dime on rent and food, i would just kill myself since at that point you are only living to work.

[-] Broadfern@lemmy.world 9 points 19 hours ago

There are games that cost like $2-5 on Steam

Unless you spend more labor-hours on cooking vats of rice and dry beans (or similar “low cost, affordable” options) and sticking to that exclusively it’s not going to meaningfully increase the meals you can eat.

As long as OP only has themselves to feed I don’t see an issue with this choice.

[-] Empricorn@feddit.nl 9 points 20 hours ago

The downvotes are excessive, but if they have the disposable money to either up that to 2.5 meals per day or spend it on games, who am I to judge which they choose? (As long as they aren't underweight or nutrient deficient) Many people purposely eat One Meal A Day...
