Delay Is Your Friend in Most Things

delay is your friend in most things, whether it's going out to eat or buying running shoes. You build any kind of delays into your spending patterns, then three quarters of the time it passes. Part of the reason that people buy the fancy shoes or the wind breaker is because they want to look good on the trail. And i appreciate your desire to optimize, but what's going to matter more to you than your nikes and your long term financial health?
