Hello everyone, my names Brad. I'm an entrepreneur of 22, I started Bora Skin awhile ago and so far things are going smooth, I'm wholesaling to a few stores, and have website, so things are getting pretty serious. One thing I notice, even though money comes and goes frequently, I'm spending a lot of money on quick snacks, fast food, and junk food all the time. I work at a call center for Cigna in the morning because my business doesn't need my whole day to run, I mainly work for benefits, 401k and to pay for inventory, but still have a lot left over as well. Anyways, my work has a built in food store in the break room, with 4 different fridges full of soda, quick snacks. I saw that I'm buying 2 monsters everyday. And occasionally a few bags of chips. I checked my statesments and I'm spending a lot on these things. I tried bringing my lunch, my own snacks, but I still have the need and want to buy a drink to keep me awake in the middle the day. Money isn't tight, but I'm wasting my money. My question is, what do you all do to keep yourselves from spending money on unless junk food, snacks etc?
