I find that it helps if you set a goal of what you want to accomplish. Problem is....keeping the goal from changing. Keep on telling myself that your building a comfortable oem+ touring car...over and over and over....

I set a goal too, doesn't really help.

"remember your building a monster, remember your building a monster"

doesn't seem to curb my spending.

i ment to say was there is hardly anything ever for sale. usually just 1 lip that more then 10 people try to get and then you have to wait again for something else. its not like theres a lot of mods up at same time. our marketplace is good though
