What the problem was

Recently, while I was drafting my assignments and I noticed that my screen was getting darker, to my fate, just in a few seconds it turned out to be totally dark and the window screen was just not visible. The screen of my device was completely gone and my work had just stopped and also the problem was that there was a meeting scheduled in the next one hour.

When it happened 

It happened in the evening time and I did not have anyone to help me. I called up my technician and it looked like I had a bad day as the executive did not attend my call. 

How you fixed it

Immediately I rushed to the nearby market and found a shop where they repaired laptop. Looking at the shop’s banner, I just felt a sigh of relief. Quickly they diagnosed the problem, they installed the anti-virus software, and just restarted the entire system. I just had to pay for the licensed version of the anti-virus which cost a bit hefty but that was just ok, as the loss without being with the device could be even more higher.

How you felt

I felt really bad as I had to spend my hard-earned money on something which was not planned and that I had saved the money for some other important purpose. My broken heart had no other option but to go with the flow and realize that computer repair was much more important than the financial loss. I just relaxed and diverted my mind to some other joyful activities to forget the loss. 



Who this person is & where you had the conversation?

We have daily conversations with different people on various topics. We remember certain conversations, as they leave an impact on us. I remember one such conversation with my grandmother that I had regarding money management. We had this conversation during lockdown when we were having dinner.

What you talked about?

The conversation started from how everything was on a hault during lockdown, and money had to be used wisely. My grandmother told me how important it is to save from what we have. Saving should be a habit whether the amount is small or big, one should develop a habit of saving as you never know when the need arrives. Life is a roller coaster and we do not know when it takes a turn. When we save, in the need of hour, we can optimally utilise it.

And explain how you felt about the experience.

The experience was an eye opener for me, as I realised that if I develop the habit of saving while I am young, it will prove to be helpful once I grow up. It is for our own good if we have ample amount of savings at our end to be used at the right time or when the need arrives.
