[quote=Anonymous]I'm in the camp of: If you feel crappy about some part of yourself, then get it fixed. It's not some risky slippery slope to a codeine addiction, and it doesn't mean you need therapy.

All that said, I'm surprised no one has asked OP yet if she works, or if that $275k hhi is all or primarily her DH's income.  In the DC area, a breast lift will definitely cost more than $5000 from a good doctor.  So let's say it ends up being $8000.  It fits within the household budget, probably, but it's not chump change either.  I'm not of the mindset that non-working spouses don't get to participate in household financial decisions.  But this is a lot of money that her DH has to work hard for, and clearly not where he anticipated his money going.  I think the working spouse should be able to veto such a large financial decision that they don't think is at all important. I think the answer changes if they are both making $150k and there's room in the budget. Or if her DH makes all $275k and wants to spend $8000 on hair implants.  [/quote]
