I understand the impulse to save money.

if you go to a seminar just leave your wallet at home...don't impulse by anything, not even a book....you can get it used on ebay or amazon later on.

So please help me out.Thanks Brandon and Vikram for this impulse.

My brother did numerous tours in combat zones, and I have several nephews who have done multiple combat tours and deployments.You clearly have anger and impulse issues, neither of which are uncommon. 

On the more level headed, practical side I don't want to let my emotions take over and impulsively jump into a potentially bad situation.

That way, I know that whenever an impulse buy is made, I will need to spend time documenting and justifying it on the ledger.

It's like every nasty primordial evil ape impulse in our savage little minds and, oh yeah, we made some things a bit more efficient along the way too, lol. 

Were these just Covid "impulse" buys or is the STR market so slow now that owners are compelled to get rid of their investment?

really had a hard time managing my finances before, i even got my credit card maxed out because i am an impulsive buyer ( I admit). but glad that i got my way out of all that trouble and now i can say that i am managing my finances well. 2. don't buy clothes that don't fit. not only clothes, but also anything that you don't need. there's a huge difference in the things that we want and the things that we need, so better stick to the needs.

When you are tempted to stray, be impulsive, or simply want something you can't afford, your WHY will help you stay on course.4. make an expense plan.
