Backlog challenge

Just putting this out here for accountability haha.

I want to buy a 14" Macbook Pro M4 in space black with 16GB of memory and 1TB of storage. It's actually already in my cart and it costs ₱121,990.00 in Powermac. It's gonna be a very big purchase for me so I kinda want to justify it by working to deserve it haha.

Since one of the primary reasons I wanted to get a macbook is to edit videos, explore the apple ecosystem further, maybe develop apps, and be more ✨productive✨, I wanted to BE PRODUCTIVE first to prove myself worthy of this great purchase.

And thus, I challenge myself to finish all my Youtube backlogs FIRST before even considering swiping for this. I've been looking at credit card deals, even applied for a new card just for apple deals, so hopefully I can maximize my savings. In 3 months I'll most probably have the money to pay for it straight, but if I can stretch it to 36 months at 0% interest I can put that money in a digital bank instead so it's earning while I'm paying incremently for the item.

Anyway, back to the challenge, here's my current backlog:

⏹️ Tefal Purepop Garment Steamer
⏹️ Keychron K5 Pro
⏹️ Hurom H310A Slow Juicer
⏹️ Machenike K600
⏹️ Moyu Mini Washing Machine
⏹️ TCL S45H Soundbar
⏹️ Royal Kludge 104plus

They're in no particular order. Some items may even be obsolete already hehe. 

The footage is taking up too much space in my phone and ipad and eventually I'm gonna run out of storage for my weekly vlogs so I'm not just doing this to earn a macbook lol I also need to do it for memory's sake (pun intended).

So yeah! Let's see if this pushes through! At best there's gonna be a new item on that backlog haha ✨manifesting✨.
