Foregoing Instant Gratification to Prepare for the Future

So, late last week, I decided to make a conscientious effort to stop impulse shopping. If it’s not on my shopping list that I meticulously planned, then I don’t need it.

Then, I had another thought — an epiphany, really — and I amended my plan.

Now, the deal I’ve made with myself is — every time I get the urge to impulse buy something, I will suppress that urge and instead buy an amount of bitcoin equal to the price in fiat of the item I was about to impulsively purchase.

Great idea, right?

Last night, I put it into practice, and it felt really good!!

What do y’all think? I’m sure this strategy has been discussed ad nauseum in bitcoin forums, but it’s new to me, and I think it’s going to be the catalyst to a major change in my household assets.
