I also don't want to offend or sound harsh, but it just seems like you have some growing up to do. You may need a cell, but you don't need a $1200 one. You may need work clothes, but you don't need a $400 Prada skirt or $550 skirt. You can look good without spending that much cash. You are being frivolous.
I have been on a fairly strict budget the last couple years as I was putting myself through school and one thing that really helped me was writing down all of my purchases, big and small ones. It really helped me see where I was spending my money and how much I was wasting. You may want to try doing that.

You are right, I dont need a $1200 phone, nor a $450 skirt. I just dont know why its so hard for me to justify it. For instance, like I said I have a person wanting to pay $600 on my phone, and I already have another one that I paid $130 or so for it. So if I downgrade thats almost $500 right there. But why is it so hard for me to do it? when it should be easy. Because im so greedy?
