Crisis?!?
I randomly choose words, expressions, phrasal verbs etc, from my flash cards and my task is to incorporate them into meaningful sentence/s or a short story.
TAKE SOMETHING DAY BY DAY, SPLASH OUT
After the financial crisis of 2055 he’s managed his money wisely. He’s used to taking his situation day by day and splashes out only five million, seven hundred and forty-three thousand, six hundred and twenty-two dollars and nine cents in a day.

I've never heard the term "splash out" before. But also, five million dollars is a lot to spend in one day, so your sentences seem contradictory, considering you say he is "managing his money wisely."

It depends...That's why my story is called 'Crisis?!?' For most of us that sum is extremely huge amount of money, but for him it's just a pocket money.
Mostly it was written just for fun.
Thanks anyway for your corrections.

Splash out isn't exactly the right phrase here, it implies making a big, out of the ordinary purchase on something that's unnecessary. Saying he does it every day doesn't make much sense. "Spends" or "Gets by on" would be better here.

It depends who you are...That's why my story is called 'Crisis?!?' with questions and an exclamation marks in it. For most of us it is extremely huge amount of money, but for him it's just a pocket money.
