While the economy is basically stagnant, but the Stock Market is booming, many people are still watching their pennies. But I was thinking is there something that, no matter what, you always splurge on even if you know you shouldn't, or even can't afford it? Some people splurge on clothes, on cars, on accessories for their homes, and even on that morning coffee. Do you have one thing that you have top have no matter what the cost?
I thought about this for a while and basically, myself and my wife, are pretty frugal about most things. It's not that we can't afford something but growing up more poor than middle class, I refuse to way overpay for something, knowing I really wouldn't enjoy it if I did.
That said, I guess our one 'vice' is cruising, which we do no matter what. We love to travel, but cruising is our nirvana in that we just love it no matter what. We have been on over 40 cruises and if we count up all the money we have spent on it over the years, yooowwweeee, but it is our passion as we age. We never did this while our kids were at home, but now, again, it is our one true expense that we will indulge in no matter what.
