How to escape a shopping addiction

Jan. 13, 2019

Introduction


It is my personal finance research. I am a single person my whole life. When I reviewed my citi credit card statements in 1999, I was so surprised that I spent over $10,000 on citi credit card without any meaningful thing left in 2019. I purchased over $8000 dollars things I want not what I need.

Shopping Addiction


It is time for me to study the topic called shopping addiction.

Here is the article to read.

1. Understand the phenomenon
2. Know thyself
3. Reflect on how you feel when you shop
4. Think about the time involved.
5. Take control of the situation
6. Start writing things down.

Another eye-opening way to get a grip is to keep a daily log of what you spend along with the feelings associated with the purchases. It's also wise to write down your financial goals so you stay focused on what's important.
7. Steer clear of unnecessary temptations.
