Who ever said maoney cant buy happiness; dint have a lot of money!!

Oh money, money money!!

Long gone are the days when a big fat amount used to get deposited in my account every month!! the Best day for any working individual - the salary day!! It's quite funny how i always used to take money for granted. i mean it's only very recent that i have considered that salary as a "big fat amount"!

With the salary in the account and the debt card in the bag the whole world used to welcome me. Window shopping meant a way to find the best thing available and grab it before anyone else. This is not to say that i was a shopaholic or extravagance buyer. i have never owned a credit card nor will i ever. They are just not my thing. i am very happy with my debit card, until recently i went to the ATM and the machine blinked "Amount not available". Talk about service quality i sadi to myself as i moved to aother near by ATM just to find the dame message being thrown at the screen.

The system must be down for the entire area i thought to myself as i put the car in first gear and moved to my second fav shopping spot. After finding a parking spot near the ATM i was so sure i would get the desired tiny amount that i almost had to skip a heart beat when the same darn message popped up on the screen and started at me, mocking me, hitting me for the very first time that maybe it's not the system but MAYBE it's my account that actually doesn't have the desired amount. I felt a strange feeling. Oh so this is how it feel whenu want money and u dnt have it! Oh so that means i dint have money. I could have started to cry right there and then if the person outside the ATM had not knocked on the door.

I dint cry but i did realize that Who ever said money cant buy happiness; dint have a lot of money!!
