[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Money is a tool to live the life you want. Spending money is a skill. There is no virtue in living a smaller life than you have to. If you want this and will enjoy it, lose the guilt and buy it. Who cares if you are rich when you’re dead!?[/quote] You might care when you are 60+ and cannot retire because you cannot afford the future. The fact they didn't have a 9-12 month emergency fund until they were worried about loosing their govt job indicates they were not fiscally sound prior. Their retirement funds are low for age. There is a happy medium between "living life" and being prepared for the future. I'd argue they can save for the jewelry, but most of us wouldn't be spending $5K based on their descriptions [/quote] OP isn't going to be unable to retire because of a 5k bracelet. [/quote]
