You can’t take money with you when you die, so why not spend it on fun things? Obviously you need to be able to “afford it”, but what that means depends a lot

Obviously you need to be able to “afford it”, but what that means depends a lot on subjective opinion and risk appetite.
For me, I have bought a handful of new and used vehicles in the last several years. Probably something like $300k total in 5 years? They are fun.
Bragging about spending less is no different than bragging about spending more.
- TehShrike 3y agoWhen I die I want to leave my kids an advantageous amount of money. Even if I didn't, vehicles are way down the list of sources of fun I would spend money on, especially if we're talking double-digit percentages of my budget. Presumably these are a part of the cultural difference between me and people who spend so much on vehicles. How much "fun" do you think the subjects of the article are getting from their vehicles?
