I love how you explain and teach about pricing and value, and this is very important and very helpful for kids to learn, which is about comparing costs and knowing how to spot marketing tricks. Even your Vegemite story I smiled while reading it. Just by paying extra for a taste of home.
It's somewhat relatable. I've been in that kind of position. It's a reminder that we must balance desires with the choices we make. And we need to make smart choices also.
Sometimes I'm thinking how my impulse has caused me to make so many financial mistakes and reckless spending. So thanks a lot for sharing this kind of lesson.
When we have an impulse, unless our life is in danger, we should slow down and think it through.
