The Ten Second Rule
The Simple Dollar » The Ten Second Rule
In short, the “ten second rule” says that any time you are about to spend any money at all, count to ten slowly and spend that time considering whether or not you should actually spend the money. It’s quite simple, isn’t it? It’s something that anyone can do, but it’s something that most of us never even consider doing as we’re writing a check or handing items to the checkout clerk.
I find this interesting, especially now that I have a real job and apparently am supposed to have somewhat more money than I did as a poor college student.
