Bound to Buy/Spend
Creature
of bad habits yes that pretty much says it all.
I can say no to Starbucks if I’m sitting at home on my couch watching a
movie, however when I am walking through the mall and see that wonderful green
and white sign with the strange cartoony lady it is not so simple. I know I have read the articles and seen the
commercials for “You can save over X amount of money a year”. I live to be happy not to save money and when
I am in a position of something I want and I can afford it I usually will
purchase it. Starbucks is actually my
cheapest bad habit by far I would say my worst habit would be gambling. I love Vegas, the lights are cool the clubs
are fun but the casinos are where the excitement is. Too my dismay I have never come home a winner. I only do it because there is the chance of
winning I have had winning streaks that I have won over nine thousand dollars in
a less than 4 hours before. Unfortunately
the fact remains that I have never left Vegas with more money than I arrived
with. The motivation for Starbucks and
gambling will stay due to the fact I do it because they make me happy, and that’s
what is most important to me after all.

I used to be like that too. When I'm home, I'm cool. But as soon as I pass a corner store or gas station I had to buy a Black and Mild cigar. Once I gave up the habit of smoking. I created the habit of going to the gym. So I basically gave up my bad habit and created a good habit. seems like it work pretty good too. Instead of wanting to smoke, I want to hit the gym
