money
My general rule on money is that if you're going to spend money and your unsure about it, wait one day. Sleep on at one full night, get up in the morning and have breakfast, think about it a little bit more and then make your final decision that day.
If there is a deal where it's not going to be there tomorrow just let it go. Google was a good deal the day it started and it was a good deal 6 months later and it was a good deal a year later. Now it's not all that great of a deal today because they've been around for 25 years. But you could have easily slept on that one day and it would have still been a great deal.
Almost every deal I've heard of that's too good to be true was. It was too good to be true it was a lie or it was a deception or it was some hokey way to waste money. Satan's going to come to you with those kind of deals and they come mask with relatives and with friends or with just high pressure sales tactics from guys that are like get in on the ground floor and all this kind of stuff let all that go okay you're way better off to just sit down and pray Jesus I love you if you want to give me some money I'll buy a lottery ticket okay you see what I mean?
General a big ticket items operate like this. Cars, houses, business startups, buying some piece of junk for a quick profit. And occasionally a good deal gets away. I've had this happen with cars. Some guys selling a car and it seems like a price that's too good to be true, well every once in a while the guys just trying to get rid of the car. He may be leaving town or it's a ex-girlfriend's car who abandoned the car and left him the title and he just wants to get rid of it this stuff happens and so okay you missed it okay so what?
Also I use the pounding heart rate test. If my heart starts pounding wildly I do not spend any money. That is always a really bad idea. Somewhere out there in the cosmos God is somehow running up your heart rate to tell you hello do not do this.
