., so a big part of your plan is how well you can control your impulses and stick to a long term plan. 

If you want a more concrete list, some of the worst ways to spend money (in my opinion):Going to the movies, buying drinks out regularly, trendy home decor (that will soon be out of style), buying a new car, eating out regularly, impulse buys (of basically any kind, to include travel unless it's an insanely good deal), books you won't read (if you know you'll read them it's fine), anything to "keep up with the Joneses", basically anything that won't last. 

I also asked for the analyzer on impulse because it could be such a valuable tool.

She ate about a hundred frozen healthy choice meals, placed the tray back in the box, and placed the box in the kitchen cabinets. she had tons of shipping boxes and appeared to be doing a lot of impulse shopping.

Charles ....yes the life lesson is do not being so nervous and impulsive with having a large vacancy.

@Nathan G.Sadly, the reality of a landlord's having to maintain their reputation in a small town or in a close-knit neighborhood, in the age of social media, has expanded to many larger communities.My first impulse would be to set out the facts of the matter from my perspective, along with the appropriate documentation.

Sure I had to make some big changes, but all of the cuts I made in my spending were impulse buys that didn't bring any fulfillment to my life.

Sometimes our impulse it to fire back at a negative review, but I have never regretted waiting to cool off.

It'll take a while to get to your first good year.If you have the strategy/shelter to plan for the bad years, then I  prefer a 1099 check.However, if on your first big sale, you want to buy a Porsche, think I'd stick with a salary as a control on your impulses.

I’m very impulsive but I won’t have the income to invest till the end of next year due to paying off debt so I really want to get things right
