Current Events > Made a relatively compulsive purchase ($1600+) today and feel guilty/angry

(+) Yeah! (+)

Even though I have several years of savings stashed through a few investment accounts and several thousand dollars readily on hand.

In short, I can definitely afford it.

I just feel really gross. It's not like when I bought my car where I like needed it. It was a gift for myself.

I don't know, I've always been really weird about spending money I guess.

When its a single transaction, it's always kinda weird unless you're just so filthy rich it scales to the equivalent of buying Red Lobster like in a Monday - out if place but doesn't hurt the wallet at all.

I had to spend a similar amount of a laptop in a couple hours notice (sudden wfh)

My decision to commit to a $15k purchase earlier this year was also a bit quick. About $10k due immediately. I'm not that rich (or at all really) , but I think more than lately it's a question of "are you ever going to do this shit or waste time always thinking about it?"

Lol it was just computer stuff. New desktop/monitor.

The one I had prior to this was purchased back when I was in college like 6 years ago.
