creeping turner

A creeping Turner is a betting phrase used first in Thailand then more in the UK meaning a fun bet which starts small but then escalates to mammoth proportions through doubling up or adding to the original bet over time. Many people who have experienced creeping turner betting have described it as both terrifying but exciting

Ian had a creeping turner, he placed $5 about a month ago on Birmingham City winning the FA Cup and now he has $68000 riding on it!

Lifestyle creep

Lifestyle creep refers to a phenomenon where an increase in income leads to an increase in nonessential expenses (things you don't really need).

When this happens, things that used to be luxuries become your new normal, you perceive them was if there essentials.

This phenomenon can start a loop:

You get a raise, so you have extra money.
You have extra money, so you spend more money.
You spend more money, so you live check to check.
You live check to check, so you work harder.
You work harder, so you get a raise.

Person A: I just got this huge raise, any ideas on what to spend it?

Person B: I think you should save it, lifestyle creep is easier to prevent than to stop.

cable creep

The slow, monthly increase of cable television charges in amounts small enough for the customer to tend to ignore, but later result in significant overall increases.

A year ago, my cable bill was $88/month and now it's $117. I hate cable creep.

A few bucks in cable creep and now my bill is 30% higher than a year ago.

My monthly cable crept from $55 to $69 in less than one year.
