Impulsive Splurking is a condition where you splurge on impulse, often with disastrous results. It's like a shopping spree, but with better clothes and worse consequences.
Causes of Impulsive Splurking:
Financial Strife: The Dark Side of Impulsive Splurking
Credit Card Therapy: A New Approach
Meet Jane, a 35-year-old marketing manager who spent her entire paycheck on a timeshare in Cancun after seeing a 30-second commercial on TV.
Meet Bob, a 28-year-old software engineer who bought a rare, first-edition, mint-condition Pokémon card after stumbling upon it at a garage sale.
Prioritize your spending, and try to make smart financial decisions.
Set boundaries, like a 30-day waiting period before buying anything over $100.
Find a support group, like a book club or a therapist who specializes in Splurking.
