How do you save money when there is a grand convention next week,and a new awesome game is released, together with the announcement of the distribution of the Bluray version of your favorite anime, plus another must have anime figurine hit the market?

You must understand that happiness does not lie within things, but rather, within yourself.

Don't buy anything and tell everyone online that you did.

By having a full time job. You're too busy to know half of the things you love are even out. As for games waiting for the game of the year edition or selects edition and so on.

It is easy being frugal if you have steel will.

Most of the shit you mentioned fall into "toys for a delusioned weeaboo" category anyway.

1. Determine what must be bought now due to limited qualities (i.e. a figurine) and what can be put off for later (Bluray)

2. Find out how to siphon money from your parents. Discover their banking habits and how you can sneak costs in at certain periods or what certain charges look like on credit bills. i.e. Buy your animu off of amazon and claim it to be text books for University. Or even buy figures from amazon.co.jp . Then just pirate the actual text books.

3. Find ways to shave extra money off of food bills. You should be skinny from malnutrition, not fat. It's not hard to NOT eat. High protein diets help keep off cravings while building muscle if you ever do anything physical.

4. You shouldn't be very social, so you should be saving extra money that normal people would spend on booze or girlfriends.

5. Pirate the game and anime you want

It is easy.
Work.
Make sure your salary > food/living cost
With the leftover money, spend it all on your hobbies.

Living with your parents is one way to save money. I wish recording equipment and instruments were cheaper.

I rarely buy things, so the little money I do get just piles up. And I certainly won't buy something that I can just pirate.

>> No.7350253

Pirate the game buy it later on. Don't go to the con. Wait on the Bluray and buy the figurine.

True NEET:
never go out, especially not to conventions
dont watch anime unless it is NEET related. In which chase they still dont buy any physical media, but download it from the Internet.
never save money because they can use his father's credit card to buy anything they want

You are a horrible person.
I mean, I don't like to judge others, because I'm a worthless waste of air - but you are a scumbag.
Just take a moment to imagine George Takei telling you you're a deuchebag.
