spending can be the result of several different factors such as
impatience, a way to deal with stress, or to boost your self-esteem.
Part of the way we spend our money is based on how we feel about
money. To some, money means power, to others status and prestige,
and still others associate money with security, because of this
there are many different spender
types. To make matters worse, as consumers we are constantly
bombarded with "great
deals," however, if we take the time to really look at
the offer, do a little comparison shopping, and consider whether
or not it is something we really need,
more often than not we come to realize that maybe it isn't such
a great deal after all. Additional
