Reply to comment by RoastedRhino in LPT: A good financial habit to get into is treating money as hours of work. Ask yourself how many hours of work something would take if you buy it. The awareness of the amount of time you put into purchases helps reduce compulsive spending. by humvee911

I dont think this lpt is saying this is a replacement for budgeting
