Let's see how financially well off CE is. My guess is most aren't/live in fly over states.

This is for wants. Not needs. Such as buying a watch, taking a trip, or just blowing it for fun.

this makes it sound like you think being well off financially only 'counts' if you live in a place with an exorbitantly high cost of living.

Right now at this instant, for a want? Maybe 3 or 4 hundred.

Really want something in a few months? A few thousand.

Probably about 1k in a month (on stupid crap) is when I would start getting stressed.

I'm okay with my credit card balance being no higher than $2000 (unless it was higher due to a vacation or big home repair I wanted to get my cash back on). So I'll go with $2000.

That's a pretty terrible metric. Just because someone is responsible with their money doesn't mean they're poor, and if someone spends like crazy, it doesn't mean they are good.

About 8 quid a pint. 20 euro taxi. 10 euro food.
Say 8 pints a night that's 64, 20 is 84, 10 is 94.
So about 100+ when you include shots

More like 3 times a week.

I don't particularly care if you believe me or not. But there's my drinking budget explained.
1500 goes by fast actually.
It also incluides anything that tickles my fancy while drunk.
Like takeout for 30 euro

you will have to forgive me for being skeptical that someone who binge drinks like a college frat boy half the days out of the year can hold down a job, let alone one that pays well enough to support all of that nonsense

I Make anywhere from 3-3.5k a month, after my benefits, taxs, and 401k(30%) are paid and my bill's amount to only around 500 a month. My car loan, cell phone, and credit card payments.

I probabaly blow about 1k on restuarant and other miscellaneous items though. And the rest I just save, I guess to buy a home down the line but I dont really care much now.

The topic title and the poll question ask two different things. I stress over all my spending, but I could spend $80,000+ in one go without it hurting financially.

If I dip into my savings almost 20k but if not a few 100.

Not in any dept and I have 2 jobs so I just save most of my money I dont spend much on anything besides necessity.

Right now I bought a new house and still havent sold my old house... so not a whole lot

but hopefully once I sell my house Ill have $100,000 cash on hand, plus I just started a new job making 20,000 more than my last one

so by the end of the year it should go from not much to a great deal

I could afford a lot more, but I'd definitely feel uncomfortable spending a grand or more on a random purchase.

In regards to actually hurting me? Not to humble brag, but six figures.
