《金钱:一个爱情故事》的作者 Kate Northrup 要求我们对每一笔花销都心知肚明。首先我们要看看信用卡额度。我们是不是在买好东西,还是这些东西可有可无?
Once we complete this step, we move on to step two. How did we feel when we made each purchase? If you actually do this step, you might find out that the purchases you made while feeling bad, needy, or lacking, are not the ones you are proud of.
一旦完成了这一步,就来到了第二步,买每一样东西的时候是什么感觉?如果你真的做到了这一步,也许会发现买这个让你有点难受、窘迫或者缺钱了,而不是让你骄傲。
