for me things have always been kinda problematic since we are not good financially, i even had to leave the career i wanted to pursue and took software engineering since my family thought "that's what brings money to the table" and not the career I wanted to pursue.
so money, lots of them. so that i could buy things that i always wanted to, so i could finally see the fruit of the struggle i have been going through at the cost of choosing a career I don't even like. but the sad thing is my desire to buy things will vanish as i become old and earn a good amount of money then, and this thought have been going through my mind for sometime.
