[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our hhi is over 1 million and I can't fathom what I would spend $1200 a month on just for myself. That seems really high. [/quote]

If you can't even spend 1.5% of your HHI on yourself, you have a mental problem: either you're a hoarder, you don't know how to do math, or you pretend that your gym membership is "for the family."[/quote]

But he said the $1200 doesn't include things like a gym membership. So this is money above and beyond. We're talking about clothes, nails, hair. You think I have a mental disorder if I think it's absurd to spend $1200 on clothes every month? I'd hate to see your cc bill. [/quote]

If the only thing you can think of spending on is clothes, yeah you do have a mental disorder.[/quote]

And here's some ideas to help you out:
A class to learn something new, that you've always wanted to do, i.e., drawing, photography, aerial silks, cooking

And/or classes to improve on what you're already doing, i.e., private lessons on tennis, golf, a stretching class

Or a higher end version of what you're already doing, i.e., a higher end fitness class, a better decorated office so they work drags you down less

Experiences that you love or want to try out, i.e., massages, football games, concerts, color analysis

Spending time with friends, i.e., going to a candle making class together, dressing up and going dancing

Convenience so you can do more of the things you love, i.e., weekly cleaning, grocery delivery

There's tons of things you can spend on for yourself to improve your own quality of life.[/quote]
