Really need to quit that.

Oh, you telling me. I am so bad and I consider myself selfish due to these impulse buys. Like really, I bought a $1200 cell phone for $675 a month ago, kept telling myself to sell it (thankfully got a offer close to what i paid), so didnt loose much. But it wasnt easy, I loved the phone, but I kept telling myself I had to do it simply to accomplishing my goal in becoming a less selfish person. I knew it wasnt right for me to own it and it wasnt money well spent. But then what do you know, i ended up buying it again (same model phone) a week later for $750. I wanted it back that bad, I regretted getting rid of it.
And now Im trying to force myself to stop being a selfish B, and give it up for good. I give up the $750 invested in the phone, and get a $250 one, what do you know thats $500 in my pocket right there (though I wont get $750), but that just goes to show much it can go a long ways.
I simple have to put a STOP to this all, or I wont be able to reach my long term goals - buy a house, etc.
