Costing habits

浪費錢的小習慣

You don’t negotiate

你不還價

From negotiating the price of your car, to negotiating your salary, you have a lot of potential to save thousands of dollars. Yet beware, negotiating is not something most people are skilled at. I recommend buying books and then spending 1000x more time actually practicing the books’teachings with a friend.

無論是買車還是談論薪資，你都有可能去省一大筆錢。要記住，討價還價并不是大部分人都擅長的事情。我建議買本類似的書，然后和自己的朋友把書里的技巧默默練習幾千次吧。

That’s how you’ll walk into a negotiation with confidence and ready to tackle anything that comes your way.

這樣你就能自信的開始討價還價，讓一切都盡在你的掌控。

You think short-term vs. long-term

短期/長期計劃

We often don’t really take into account the effect of our actions in the long run. For example, you not negotiating a $5k increase in salary does not just cost you $5k this year, but maybe next year as well.

我們往往不會考慮自己的行為在長遠時期的影響。比如，你不會要求漲五千美元的薪水，也沒有意識到今年不要求，明年也會沒有。

In your next job interview, the employer will try to pay you according to your past salary. Your negotiating position will start from $5k less than what it could have.

你的下一個面試，老板也會試著按照舊工資來付薪水。你至少可以要求漲薪五千美金，這樣才不會比本可拿到手的低。

【知識點講解】

我畢業后可以不費吹灰之力地找到任何工作。

'set a trap for him to walk into, eh? "

“ 設下圈套給自己鉆, 是 嗎 ? ”

You'd walk into the room with a chip on your shoulder.

你總是盛氣凌人地走進房間里.
