I actually a coonsumer, who has stopped coonsoming for the best, the best is beat over your head that you need the shit that you want to buy, however live a little, think about your finance how much you can spend and how much you can put into stocks/crypto, I have set to put 95% of my salary into investing, and denying myself spending on stupid shit.

stop your urges and think before buying. Accept that all ads are your enemy. They are trying to manipulate you by appealing to your subconscious emotions. Don't fall for products you think you need for social status or identity signaling. Buy used where you can.

I agree. I used to be a /fa/ high end consoomer where I bought Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Jordans, and Nike sneakers.

As soon as I got exactly what I wanted, I felt a slight dopamine rush and then felt the same before I had it. I now just buy $10 Uniqlo t-shirts and stuff like that. I see that all I need is basic clothing with no logos and stuff that's functional. I'm not saying to be some overly minimalist fag but less is definitely more.

What worked for me was buying all the crap I thought I wanted, stuff that I thought would make me happy. I was making good money with some websites I had, I mean i even bought an exotic bird for like 3000 dollars just cause the idea got in my head. After that experience I realized that most the shit I bought did not make me happy and would just be left unused after the first 2 days of me owning it. It’s true once you have money you see it really isn’t the key to happiness.
