Have you ever heard of “conscious(有意识的) spending”?According to Ramit Sethi, conscious spending is all about spending money on the things you truly value and cutting costs as much as possible on the things you don’t need. It’s about knowing what you really want and then spending your money on the things you need.
The term “conscious spending” suggests that people experience unconscious spending nowadays. It’s almost like unconscious eating. We don’t make a plan, and we’re not really paying much attention, especially when using credit cards.
The most important way to deal with unconscious spending is asking yourself some questions. Where has my money been going? What do I love spending

money on and why? How much do I need for the things I must have, such as food and bills? How much do I want to save and why? How much do I want to keep for unimportant buys, such as coffee with a friend or a movie ticket?
▲ Your answers to these questions agree with what Sethi calls “rich life”— the life that is special to you and not influenced by what anyone else thinks you should do.
When you’ve already thought about what you really want, you will no longer have to feel worried or unsure about how you spend your money.
