[quote=Anonymous]I don't think I've ever looked at a purchase from this perspective. If it's something we want and can afford, we buy it. If it's not a smart purchase or is going to be a money sink, it's probably not something we'll buy. We're not extravagant by nature, but we're also not going to deny ourselves or our children because of what other people think. My spouse grew up LC, I grew up blue-collar MC, and both of our families think that we are rolling in it as UMC professionals. What "looks rich" is entirely subjective. I have a set of rings (engagement, wedding, anniversary) that are modest by DC standards but ostentatious by our family of origin's standards. Honestly, it's not a game you can win, so why bother trying?[/quote]
