10 Reasons Not to Buy

  1. Don't buy it because there are 200 points left on your Bonus-Link card (or whatever card) you just gotta have the free gift that comes when you hit that level
  2. Don't buy it because your friends have bought it and you can't bear being the only one not having it
  3. Don't buy it because you're already "there" and, sure you've got quite a few of those items back home already, but what the heck since the latest ones look so good
  4. Don't buy it because you think it should be a good investment, for if it's investing that's on your mind, you should either go to your broker or real estate agent
  5. Don't buy it because you want to impress people (or tick them off - you can buy it for others and by all means do)
  6. Don't buy it because Justin Bieber or Pierce Brosnan say they like it
  7. Don't buy it because you've got money to spend
  8. Don't buy it because the sales executive is drop-dead hot
  9. Don't buy it because you're running out of time and you feel you can't leave without purchasing something
  10. Finally, don't buy it because you'll feel empty without it (which is a variation of #5, only worse because then you'll be feeding, and thus enlarging, the void within).
