The Money Marathon: Day 2 (Tuesday)

16/2/2016

6 Comments

Well done everyone who answered yesterday's questions! Today we continue to examine the patterns of your perception and behaviour in regards to money. 

Today, you get £3,000 (or $4,400) to spend under one condition: you MUST spend it before the end of the day. You cannot put it in the bank/save etc. - everything must be spent before Wednesday!

1. What will you spend it on? 
When writing an answer to this question, please be as specific as possible. I.e. do not generally write "I'll get a private tuition with a piano teacher, go to the restaurant, book a massage and buy a dress", but specify, what you will eat (study the menu!), what kind of dress it will be, where the massage will happen etc, and what it should cost.

For instance:
- Private class with a piano teacher in The Royal Opera House - 200 pounds
- Buy a beautiful long purple dress made of silk in Harvey Nichols - 850 pounds
- Buy a train ticket from London to Paris for 250 pounds to go out to Jules Verne restaurant, ordering the experience 6 course menu for 230 euro.


Got it? Really do your research, study the website or go out and check the place where you'd love to go!

2. What is the sensation in the body when you are working on this task?
Do you feel excitement, warmth, or are you short of breath, frozen etc? Are all parts of your body feeling the same? Where exactly do you have sensations you can identify?

Post your answers below and check this space later as I might ask you extra questions!

Reposting again the previous comment, would appreciate any insights ;)
1. Spending 3,000 pounds:
Assuming that I don’t have to repeat what I’ve spent on yesterday, I will use 800 pounds to pay towards the credit card balance (when writing, I realized I had an internal conversation going on as I initially wanted to use the money to pay all the debt, but then thought it would be no fun if I won’t have cash left. Hence only 800). This leaves me with 2,200, of which I will probably spend 500-700 to get a decent website for my business, and then I’m torn between spending it on a new IKEA kitchen or just saving it. Oh, hold on, I can’t save it – would spend it on a new kitchen, then. The new one I like costs a bit over 2,000, so I will probably add my own money and get one.
2. Sensation in the body:
Wow, this feels like a big relief imagining that I have this money, and feels like a big sum. Enthusiasm decreases thoughts once I have to spend it, actually – apparently, I like the sensation of having a lot of opportunities in front of me, and not having to choose. Then when putting it towards the credit – feels like a necessity, but a bit heavy around the chest, feel sorry to let it go. Thinking about website feel more energetic again, it’s an investment in what’s important, and also has a visible result (not just wasting money). And around kitchen the sensation is different, but also good, like doing a proper cleaning – feels like bringing things in order.
Interesting, looking forward to the next one!

I would spend £1,500 on a personal development course that I want to do - they hold it in different locations around the world, but this amount of money would allow me to do it in Mexico :) This price includes accommodation and food too.
I would use another £500 to extend my stay in Mexico, do some scuba diving and some beach-partying.
I would spend £700 on the flights to get there.
I would spend £300 updating my wardrobe, as I haven't bought any new clothes or shoes for a very long time. I would shop in Long Acre, Covent Garden.


Feelings around this - It was enjoyable to imagine what I would spend it on, although I immediately thought of lots more things I also would like to spend it on after these things, and then I felt a bit of anxiety around having spent it all and was it on the right things?
I felt a bit of tension in my stomach thinking maybe I should spend at least a portion of it more wisely and in a less self-indulgent way.

Lisa, thanks for your answer! Try exploring this voice telling you about spending money "more wisely and in a less self-indulgent way". What is it suggesting? Who does this voice resemble of?
What is the belief that you have around money, when looking at how you spend it, and that voice has? Try to formulate it

Helena, with you I am getting a sensation that you want to "put money to work" (based on your body feelings), but something is blocking it. May I suggest you try to identify this blocking part and see what it looks like?
