Friday Cartoon: Octopus Tech Envy

Octopuses, Tax Returns, and Sticking to the Budget. A Financial Friday Cartoon

Time for another cartoon about life and all the stuff that happens in it. Like envying cool stuff your friends have. 

We all know that sticking to a budget means doing without a lot of fun toys and gadgets. Darn, it's hard sometimes though, right? 

I figured this was appropriate since tax season is upon us, and I'm starting to see those first social media posts where people are showing off their new fitness trackers and flat screen televisions. 

Hopefully, if you are on track paying off your debt, or building up a comfy savings, you won't be distracted (too much) by all the shiny stuff. But it's okay to think about it, right? 

It's waterproof up to 20,000 leagues...so they say.

I can't say that I envy anyone's fancy smart watch (whether it tells you when to make an ink cloud or not), but I do have stuff I want. 

​For instance, right now I am coveting me some Copic markers, because I found this blog, and she makes me believe I can actually figure out how to use them. ​

And yes. If I had a sixth arm that could regenerate...then I might possibly trade it for some cool markers. Or maybe just a cheesecake. 

What is in on your secret wishlist this month, and how are you doing so far on your journey to financial freedom?
