The Joy of Bidding Online

When every bid feels like a gamble then you just have to stop yourself from going overboard. People bid to have fun with the possibility in mind that you can win that gadget du jour, but if you think you're bidding impulses are tide into this overwhelming urge to get high on a sudden win. Then you're headed for a major downfall and not an auction windfall. Bidding til you're broke is a habit that's just too excessive.



I cannot stress enough that I don't find online auctions or even penny auctions as gambling. They are far from being casino slot machines. Some people just don't know when to stop, same thing happens when they're out on retail therapy swiping their credit cards away til their maxed out. With shopping or anything involving money, you always gotta have a budget in place and a financial plan in mind. Same for doing the rounds with online auctions, you just gotta have a strategy in mind, you gotta bid at the best possible moment.
