self control

[Z-tight]

sometimes i feel like even with utmost self control you still don’t end up getting rich due to expensive prices and lack of salary in general

Self control, which i would prefer to call discipline is not only what is needed to become rich, but it is an important part of it. However, you must add investing to your discipline and you must invest in the right assets, some people still save money in the bank and they expect to get rich, that is not possible. You save money and then you put them in investments that rise against inflation or maintains their value even in a crisis, BTC and gold are very good examples.

in order to save money, is it enough to just prevent oneself from buying things unnecessary or limit ourselves to only what is needed to survive? is this a way to live? is there no other easy way aside from earning so much?

To become rich, there is no role in stopping unnecessary spending, but you must spend money on the things you need. If you do not spend money on the things you need, you will be deprived of your basic needs, which will prevent you from living a healthy and normal life. And then you will not be mentally healthy, which will prevent your progress. So just reducing unnecessary expenses and finding multiple sources of income and getting involved in business is very important to become rich. No matter how much money you save, if you do not have enough income, you will not be rich.

Self control alone hasn't and would not make anyone rich. You will not get rich even with the highest level of self control cause while it does help greatly in managing how and what you spend on along with your overall savings, it doesn't help in making you more money. With self control, you would have the will to turn a blind eye to what is not needed and not having to spend frivolously.
If you want to get rich, self control would greatly help in the journey but the wheels to get there is majorly acquiring one or more jobs to increase your income, along with investments of course.

Self control is just one of the things you need on your journey to becoming wealthy, it's not that only thing you need to learn but it's very important. There are so many reasons they you must learn to discipline yourself. A reckless spender cannot be wealthy for a long time, after a short period of time they end up broke. When you ares still on the come up in life learn how to control the little you have otherwise when your opportunities come you would misuse them

Saving money alone without any plans to make it increase isn't going to make you rich, having self control and saving automatically doesn't mean wealth, though self control is needed in your journey to wealth and also preventing yourself from things unnecessarily especially things you don't need is also a good way to get rich but that's not the only way. Being reckless in your spending will leave you at the button financially and if this habit isn't managed properly then you have no business being rich, self control can also be referred to as discipline and it is a key factor that contributes to riches.

I am sorry to break it to you but, self control is no longer enough in our today’s economy as we may have it.

Many of us don’t even get to buy what we don’t need or consider unnecessary anymore but even then, we find ourselves living difficult lives. It’s what our societies have turned out to be with inflation being the order of the times.
Self control would certainly help you to some funds but, it doesn’t change the surging prices of commodities in the market. They are what drives the economy more.

If you want to get rich in life, create your own life’s strategy. Saving may be a good start, but once you’ve earned enough, be wise and smart where to put your money then. Investing could be the key in getting rich, but always know that not all investments can make you earn riches, but investing on the highly potential assets like bitcoin may open doors for you to achieve your dreams and goals in life.

Furthermore, diversification creates more opportunities for you to get wealthy in the long run. Invest and reinvest, and invest into other profitable assets as well that suit your knowledge, passion and skills, that way you will always be motivated to keep investing and grow your current wealth.

[Shadiq]

This is the wrong way to get rich. No one can ever become rich by saving money, rather you have to take risks by saving money, i.e. investment. Naturally I do not want to tell you about investment, because it is beyond the scope of the subject.

Avoiding unnecessary expenses will not be enough to save money, rather you have to learn to produce. It can be anything for your daily needs. If you have a lot of vacant cultivable land, then you can reduce the cost of meeting daily needs by cultivating it or you can sell it and earn extra money and save more money. Or you can try to find the hidden talent in you and produce and reduce the cost of meeting daily needs and earn extra money. There is no alternative to production to save more money. But my advice would be, do not save money and leave it, but invest it with risk. Due to struggling with inflation, you will start reducing the value of your money.

In the current inflationary times it is very difficult to reduce the amount of expenditure despite your desire. After fulfilling the basic needs as your income increases the additional needs that you have gradually become basic needs and you cannot reduce that expenditure so easily. As your income increases your mental readiness also increases similarly your expenditure also increases. If you are an earning person you will see that the income and expenditure flow that you had five years ago has almost doubled or tripled. As your salary increases every year your expenditure also increases. Along with the basic needs additional needs also come together. I have tried to reduce family expenses by applying various strategies to save money but in reality the demand also increases with the income. As the income increases, your expenditure also increases.

Self discipline is what you mean, I think. Everyone controls their self. Not everyone has learned discipline.

you can’t control yourself without discipline and since you said that you not everyone has discipline we can say not everyone controls themselves

there is a difference between not doing things because you have no choice and not doing things out of your own will

Lack of salary? Why depend only on a salary in a world where you are free to make money with anything? There are girls selling bathwater and guys posting with an ad in their signature on the Bitcointalk forum for a weekly pay. There are many different ways to make some extra money.

If you lack self discipline of course you are going to lose all your money everytime a new I-Phone comes out. 

we can still call that a salary no matter where it comes from it’s still money and honestly it’s not as easy to make money no matter how much options we have now

No, self-control is not enough to sustain our needs. We need to find a decent source of income to enable us to have money to buy our needs.  Discipline cannot provide us funds for our necessities but it will definitely help us to control everything we already have.

To survive, we need food, to buy food we need money, to have money we need to work.  In this discipline can help to have a decent life but without money we can never achieve this.  So discipline is not enough in this economy.  Btw, we still need to have critical thinking, smart decisions and many more.

Self control by depraving urself of buying things in my opinion is futile, you'd eventually spend your money to buy those things you want.

It's always better to just earn more, you can buy things and stash money for investment.

I just never really agree with the idea of saving, it just doesn't sit right with me. Saving money bits by bits until it stacked enough to invest then what happen if market turns bad and your money gone?

Would you want to go through the path of ascetic again? I just think it's plain foolish. Just improve your skill and do side hustle man.

[Cryptohunterkill]

Yes I know self control matters, but I believe once in a while you need to listen to your self and enjoy your life, life is just once brother, even in the midst of your challenges in life, after too much thinking without a solution on how to become that really rich guy, go to a bar, grab a bottle, and have peace of mind.

You used two terms, you first said "in order to save money", and then you said "end up getting rich", so let me clear one thing first; saving money doesn't make you rich in no part of the world, it only allows you to have some extra funds that you can use for something in the future, and that becomes a possibility only after some years because you can't save enough money to be usable within a month or two, unless you make a ton lot of money, in which case you don't even need to save but anyway.

Self-control and not buying unnecessary things or spending money unnecessarily can make things better, but it's not going to be a long-term solution, especially if you live in a country where inflation is gradually rising over time. The only way for one to be able to save money and have a balance in their life financially, it is important for them to have more than one sources of incomes so that they make more money than they need to spend in a month, which is the only way they can save some of it.

I think the right word to use here is discipline, self discipline. After discipline that’s where self control comes in, cause if you’re not disciplined, you can’t have self control. Being disciplined doesn’t make one rich, everything boils down to your income. You can choose to be disciplined, save money and deprive yourself of some certain wants when you don’t even receive good income and at the end of the day does that your savings make you rich, no it doesn’t. What can make you rich is your mindset on how to invest does money you aren’t spending, into something more profitable that will multiply that money.

Mind you not all investments becomes profitable, that’s why as someone who wants to be successful, you need to choose wisely on the investment you want to do, so that on the long run can fetch you good profits. Not all investment makes you good profits immediately, that’s why it’s always advisable to have patience when going into an investment, with patience you can succeed but without patience you go into regrets.

[SmartGold01]

Self control plays a very vital role in our lives because this could help to narrow down things we don’t want or need in our lives, it would reduced unnecessary expenses and how much we do play with especially uncalled celebrations, outings and shoppings.
When you have self control you can save up money and do not allow your money to control you whereby you would be wanting to buy everything at all cost living a showy lifestyle and wanting to impress everyone that comes across you could actually leads you to lacking.
The best practice is to avoid all these and live a cool life and mind on what you spend.

Inflation is rising, and minimum wage still remains the same; there is no way one can survive on salaries.  Saving in this condition will be a near impossible task even if you live extremely modestly.

Seeking other sources of income, like securing a side job or starting a business, would be good options if you want to save. Saving would later be channeled to investments such as real estate,  Bitcoin, or precious stones.

Of course, if inflation rises, salaries will remain the same, making it difficult to cut expenses and limit unnecessary purchases. This won't solve the problem and may be temporary, but it won't help in the long run.
The best way to address this situation is to increase your income by finding a side job or doing something else that can supplement your income so you can still meet basic needs without having to cut back, especially on food. Spending money on non-essential items is inevitable and shouldn't become a habit unless absolutely necessary. And by having a side job, you can increase your income, which you can use to save and invest. This doesn't have to be a large amount and you can do it gradually; even small amounts can add up over time. To cope with inflation and a fixed salary, we need to be independent and smart in dealing with it because no one can help us but ourselves.

[traderethereum]

No easy money that we can earn without hard and smart work. We can self control to prevent buying unnecessary things and remind ourselves that we don't need that. We need to save our income some portions for our future so we can still survive if the situation worsens.

But we also need to reward ourselves if we can earn more money so we can remember that if we can do many things, we will get something positive for ourselves. We can live simply without following the life style because that is not important to us. Let others do that because maybe they have more than us.

On average it's about survival for most of the world economy. Dreams, visions, and expectations are collapsing on daily basis, innovative minds find no sponsor or motivation to go ahead. Life gets cruel each morning with rigorous tax policies on citizens, where all the generated money are not accounted for. Savings doesn't help so much, citizens are faced with a high hit of inflation that brushes back up money to get leaner. However, it's fine to reward ourselves, it kind of revatalize energy to face what's after us - poor governance.
