Hi Everybody,
Let me know what yall think of this idea.
I remember reading that one way that people quit smoking is by having this website make a contract with you and every time you buy a pack of cigarettes it takes money out of your bank account and donates it to an anti-charity of your choice (think KKK, or NRA, or bleeding-heart liberal charity of America, Etc). Even though I quit smoking years ago, I was thinking that I would love something like this for diet foods but for some reason, it just doesn't seem to exist, or if it does it's impossible to find.
I have always struggled with buying junk food and spending money on unhealthy food, moderation has never been my strong suit. Even if I don't buy it when I get groceries it isn't enough of a deterrent for me because I love moving around and doing things. So I always end up just going to the store to get whatever craving suited me at the time. Sure self-control works for maybe a month or so but I always cave and end up getting Ben & Jerrys at some point and the endless cycle continues.
I think it would be a huge hit because it's exactly the thing I would be looking for to help me stay on track. I hate losing money and to think it would go to some awful group like the KKK would make me never even dream of buying an unhealthy option outside of a planned cheat day. It wouldn't even have to be an anti-charity it could just go into a mutual fund acorns style and sit there for a set period before you could touch it.
Shit, I know maybe five people off the top of my head who could benefit from this idea and I know I can execute.
Tell me what you guys think I would love any feedback
