Windfall Spending

Windfall Spending is a financial behavior in which individuals allocate unexpected or unanticipated monetary gains, such as bonuses, tax refunds, or lottery winnings, to discretionary or non-essential expenditures more readily than they would with income from regular earnings, due to the perception of these funds as "extra" or low-cost within mental accounting frameworks.
