I was talking to someone I used to work with and we were talking about money and stuff. I told him about me spending £40 on makeup recently and he said that I really need to save money and stop wasting it. Yet in the next sentence he was talking about buying a video game that’s about £40 also. So makeup and stuff like that is a waste of money but not video games?

I’ve noticed that with a lot of people. They talk about xyz being a waste of money yet spend their money on stuff that’s really not necessary either. What gives?
