Everything you want right now comes with a hidden fee you pay later.

Immediate satisfaction is rarely priced at the moment of purchase. The cost turns up later as a wrecked night, a strained month, a commitment you no longer want, and because the payment is separated from the pleasure you seldom connect the two. None of this is an argument for denial, only for looking ahead by a week.

When you want something right now, ask what the version of you in seven days will be handling. If the answer is nothing much, go ahead. If the answer is a real cost, at least you made the trade on purpose.
