[quote=Anonymous]Off the top of my head, it sounds like you are not being unreasonable but cutting it a little close financially. With the medical expenses and technology and other incidentals, you are taking up 13K of your "discretionary" 15K. That's not a lot of wiggle room, and certainly does not allow your wife much in the way of similar indulgences. Plus, medical expenses can be very unpredictable - I imagine a bad year (even if not fatal!), could run you far more than your budgeted amount. Seems like a good place for a compromise. Return the tablet but mention that you are saving up for a ____. Or keep the tablet but make a concrete promise to take a break, limit other purchases for the next 6-12 mos. [/quote]
