That may be true Cyclops about noise. But then, how does hypnosis work? The suggestions given aren't silent, yet they work.
I think subliminals aren't proven to work because they are below the threshold of human hearing.
Binaural beats aren't below the threshold.
Yeah, I might not invest any more money in this technology, though I will use what I do have already.
I have this problem where I try self-help technology to improve myself because it is said to work effortlessly and meditation was too hard.
I put myself into debt with all my impulse buying.
So I have to stop buying stuff that I don't need.
And that is hard.
I'm like $10k in credit card debt now.
Plus I owe student loans.
Most of the debt came from trying to promote my book. I spent thousands marketing it, and failing.
And when I looked at a picture of orgonite on the web, I felt energy from it.
It was a pressure that I felt.
I thought it was doing something positive, so I spent over $3000 on it.
That didn't go on credit cards though. It was when I cashed out my $70,000 401k, which now only has like $1000 left in it.
I did it at like 40 years old, so they penalized me $40,000. I did it anyway.
And I have only $1000 in savings now.
I don't know why I do this to myself. But when I was working for my mom and giving her all the money, my disability was taking an additional $400/month from me,
which reduced my savings. Plus my expenses were adding up to $400/month more than I was making. So over 2 years I drained my savings by $800/month.
And she'll never be able to afford to pay me back. She won't see that she even has to. It wasn't "her" fault that they charged me 1/2 of what I was making.
Then I decide to buy her a $1000 new computer because her old one locks up on her. And I buy my dad a $400 laptop because his old one crashed.
So I get things for other people, and self-development for myself. But I still feel like crap at times. There is upheaval that comes out, which is natural.
Now, after cutting back expenses, I am able to have a surplus of like $1-200 / month. Though this last month I was still $200 over what I made.
I am putting the surplus to one of my credit cards. Till I can pay it off.
But my disability only pays me till May 2020. Then they will have to determine if they will keep paying me till I'm 65.
I hope so since a psych test said I can't work. And even so, I have no 401k practically, so my retirement is ruined.
But as I pay off my home and stuff I will have to be disciplined and put all my money towards retirement.
