The problem of earning money is deciding what to do with it.

If there are no responsibilities involved, then do with it whatever you want... drink it up if that will make you happy. If there are, then you have to choose.
If you earn money enough, then you can act responsibly while living up what's remaining.

This is my case. I have my full responsibilities in place. Need to pay for my daughter's needs.
That is my only responsibility. Not a cheap one, but I can live with it. What to do with the remaining money?

One year ago, I decided I would invest it. How? real state.
I bought an apartment. Nice, little, very well ubicated apartment.
Now, I year later, I have to pay for it...

Did I made a good choice? my friends would say: "Bea, there is nothing like having your own stuff, you are so lucky you can go and finally live by yourself without depending on your parents"
Yes, that is very true, but not depending on your parents means to start paying for your own cable and internet service... leave alone water, electricity, phone and the huge loan I am stuck with for the rest of my working life... hahahaha now... with all this taking into account, there is no remaining money... actually there is even a ~$500 deficit if I wanted to move into it...

Should I have made another choice and just go and travel my way around life... go to countries, meet friends, take my daughter into a cultural endeavour...

I said I never wanted to be a normal person, actually for my culture... I am not normal. (No one in their correct state of mind buys an apartment at age 23 and thinks of leaving home to be independent without being married).
Compared to nomads... I am way too normal.

Where does the balance lie? Still confused. In the mean time, need $200 to get electricity connected to my new house. It only has water running.
