I am all about slow food! I’m struggling with the learning to wait. I’m just so impatient!

That is one of the points in your money or you life. You earn more to spend more. We often don’t realize the real cost of working. We work hard to get a promotion and pay raise and because of that hard work we reward ourselves with more spending because we deserve it/too tired to cook etc.

Work spending becomes a cycle which feeds it self. New promotion new clothes. Or new promotion more hours no time to save money on shopping etc.

I’ve often thought the same thing of drive throughs. I’m more likely to order the entire meal if I’m in the car with cupholders than if I have to carry it out and juggle the purse, food, beverage and keys.

Hi – Just to let you know that I am awarding you a Blog Award – have a look at my blog for further information.

I really enjoy reading this blog – it’s so focused and to the point (unlike mine which just veers off at a tangent!)

Keep up the good work.

Slower is also much healthier for you as well as better for your pocket. Great post!

I think you are spot on with this post. we just live in such a fast paced world and it does breed a feeling of impatience.

I like what you said about running our of things so you just adapted, one of our problems is that we live only one block from a supermarket, so it’s really easy to visit it if we run out of something which often leads to spending more than we planned.

Nothing better than to slow down. Getting to a point where you can breathe in the air and relax on the grass is the ideal. Good for you!
