 +If the special store reaches 50 points after act 2 you can stop putting points into it if you wish, though if you are close to gaining next special training level or some other big things you may want to continue putting few more points there as having only one point/session to use is not fun if you end up in storage debt.

-If you buy bionics or other ways of getting more points, reduce the special store by that amount and if it and your active points are not enough then your active points go to negative and you only get 1 point/session to spend on things, all other points go to buying off the debt. In case of bionics it is often also good to buy a suitable nuisance effect that you can then freely buy off later. This represents that most people take a bit of time to adjust to new bionics(typically 1-2 months for minor bionics and up to 6 months for majors). +If you buy bionics or other ways of getting more points, reduce the special store by that amount and if it and your earned points are not enough then your active points go to negative and you only get 1 point/session to spend on things, all other points go to buying off the debt.
