Because some people save money, some spend it sensibly, and some end up wasting it, money is a complex topic. A number of short stories about people who lost their money in unexpected and surprising ways can be found in this collection.
The first story is about a guy I worked with who was in a long-distance relationship with a girl he had not yet met live. Abruptly, she informed him that she could take a plane to meet him in a month. He hadn’t mentioned it in their earlier conversations, but at the time, he lived in his parents’ basement. He found a new apartment in a panic.
A couch, tables, a dining set, a bedroom suite, a TV, and other furnishings for an entire apartment were then rented by him from one of those furniture rental establishments. The entire apartment was furnished with rental furniture, which can quickly become costly if you’re not aware. Finally, the girl appeared after all of this. She advised him to end their relationship when they arrived at his apartment.
