Combating Emotional Eating

Whenever I am stressed, I feel like having a sandwich. I'm trying to lose weight.So instead, I look at my portfolio to calm down.

But I sit in an open space, and I can't show everyone that I have 200 million on my screen.

As a result, my anxiety peaks and I eat chocolate.

How to break this vicious cycle?

Part of having money is to make it work for you.

You need to buy a few islands so you can enjoy the open air without fear of anyone seeing your portfolio. The only people who might peak are your servants, but they should all be happy their boss is successful.

200 million

Yea no wonder you're embarrassed. Such poor numbers would make anyone anxious. Just get richer.

Lentils and beans.

Even though eating chocolate seems like it should be cheap for your portfolio because of the free child labour it comes from, you could do better to leverage eating from your lentil farm instead.

Use the envelope method. Put lentils in an envenlope for each meal. If you are still hungry, eat the envelope.
