[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I have a very similar situation. My DH lost his job during the federal mayhem in spring 2025. He got a good severance but it was very stressful time since we have a special needs child. We did have a very healthy savings but just really tried not to think of it as something we could or should freely dip into. Fast forward to late fall, DH landed a [b]significantly higher paying job[/b]. It was such a blessing and relief. He bought me an expensive piece of jewelry a few weeks ago and we didn’t give the purchase a second thought. It was a hard year. I look at this piece of jewelry every day and just delight in the beauty of it. It feels like a symbol of a fresh start, as another PP mentioned. I say go for it. [/quote] Let's see if you can spot the significant difference in your situation and OP's. Hint - I helpfully bolded it for you. [/quote]
