[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here.

We are very frugal. Our house payment is 2800. Our cars are paid off. No student loan debt. All we pay for is mortgage, utilities, car insurance & gas, groceries, and a nanny half of the year. We don’t use credit cards.

Botox is every 6 months. Eyelash extensions are about 2x/month and $85 each time. I’ve been saving for cosmetic surgery. We’re not living beyond our means.

I guess if I have a personal interest in beauty and self care that makes me selfish. Ok. I’m willing to take that as a judgement if that’s how you feel. I don’t know what to tell you? I’ll stop doing it? What do you want me to say about how I choose to spend my time/money on if it’s not hurting anyone and not affecting our budget?

I guess because my STBXH takes issue with it. Well, it won’t be his problem soon enough then.[/quote]

You spend over two thousand dollars a year on eyelash extensions??[/quote]

The pearl clutching is too much. My friend’s husband regularly drops that much on golf weekends. My MIL spends $400 when she gets a haircut/dye. My SIL just bought a very ugly pair of Gucci mules for $900. Why does it offend you that people choose to spend money on things you wouldn’t? If you really want to be offended, be offended by all the money going to superpacs and lobbyists or be offended by billionaires buying yachts instead of choosing to pay their employees decent wages, foster ethical labor conditions at their companies, or fund a number of worthy causes. Do not waste your energy being offended by the OP spending $2000 on eyelash extensions.  [/quote]

And I’m a woman who wears no make up and spend no money on cosmetics or “self care.” But the sexism on this thread is is obvious it’s funny.[/quote]
