Fighting The Money Train!

What is the money train?

It’s this emotional response we always take in regards to incoming money.

I have this image in my mind of a moving train into the future we can not stop.

I had to come up with a name for what I was thinking about, and I was close to going with the Fighting The Gravy Train, but that makes no sense.

Just when I feel I don’t have anything new to write about something comes to mind; something that bothers me; gives me an idea for a short article like this.

I invented a name for a syndrome I run into every time I am about to receive money. That syndrome is my inability to stop pre-mature spending.

The money train syndrome is like a train that is coming at your head and your mind starts spending what you don’t even have yet. That’s what I refer to as “Fighting The Money Train”.

I start thinking let’s get Starbucks this morning. If there is a Dean & Delucca around, even better.

I start thinking let’s go out for the better sushi, not that supermarket grade.

I start thinking maybe I will not be buying food at Aldi’s month.
