Is it really a thing? Does impulse control come in waves?

We know inflation, debt and violence do. What human behavior can possibly be the base cause for such effects?

Internalized concerns about time opportunity cost and sense of urgency and the aforementioned poor impulse control and irrational exuberance, a mix of all of them too.
Test it on yourself, when you are in a good mood or in a 'let's go after it' mood you are more likely to be speeding, the higher the mood, the lower the impulse control, it can drive you up to 120-130 mph maybe while your favorite song is playing and there is a stretch of open road ahead. Even 140 if your car is powerful, and you don't notice it. You are breaking a bunch of laws in that moment without realizing.
It comes from within, it has nothing to do with finances, job market, savings or any reasoned thought. Thank God! Being irrational and getting away with it, and then looking back in a moment of rationality is an emotion that makes us human.
