Feast caveman

Cavemen didn't store food. When it was plenty they eat it. When sources were scarce, they starved. When hunters were fortunate and killed a big beast, like a mammoth, the whole tribe was feasted of it. Therefore the common eating is inherent in every social event today. The leftover went back to Mother Nature. Ten thousand years ago, the invention of agriculture has changed everything.  Complete cognitive revolution was necessary. But our brain remained the same. Human brain is approximately one million years old. Or at least evolution-belivers say so. Compare the last ten thousand years to it is nothing. That's why lots of people can't manage their income. They live from paycheck to paycheck or they are already heavily in debt. The same old mindset is the reason why 90% of lottery winners spend all the money within a year and a half. Your brain is a caveman's mind. Especially in financial matters. There is a wrong software running. No worries. You can change that software by three things. Learning, compulsion and changing habits. You can learn from your parents or in the school. Both of them are fucked up in modern societies. So, forget it. Compulsion is good. The only problem that noone else want to change these things. Is it the interest of the banks? Or the government? Or your employer? Forget it. A well-indepted person does not rebel, very happy to has a job and shots up. He pays the mortgage, banks are thriving. A meek man, held at bay, comes in handy for everyone. There is only one thing left. Change your habits. Horace Mann said once: " Habit is like a rope, a new batch of fiber is added every day and it soon becomes nonrupturable." If you forming good habits, they can operate and take the results. Habits are rooted in practice - and not on intuitively wrong way of thinking. Plan once what you want. Reasonably. Act by the plan. Be consistent. Be responsible and finally you will get out that lukewarm shit, you are in at the moment.
When you will stop feasting finally and put some in the fridge for later on?
