Is having expensive tastes a good thing

Scroll to see replies

Like true religion jeans cost like £300 but fully worth it great quality style and fit etc
Of course - as long as you can afford it. Lefties will tell you that it's "classist" to enjoy anything that costs more than a dime but they're talking rubbish as usual.
I don't think it is a good or a bad thing.

I get that expensive items are often better quality but they don't really do anything for me. I was given an expensive watch and while it is a nice watch, so what? It doesn't make me any happier.

But expensive items do make some people happy. If they make you happy and you have the money, then good for you. You should do what makes you happy. It is not a bad thing.

Everyone has different preferences. I think my wife is wasting her money when she spends £100 on make up and she thinks I'm wasting money when I spend £100 on a night out.

If you like buying expensive clothes, foods watches etc


If you can afford expensive things, then why not.
I have a bit of a expensive taste, I think as long as you are not stupid with it, it is ok.

And while some more expensive things may be better quality like shoes or clothes many expensive things are just ripoffs.


But I do enjoy buying Expensive things, I bought a watch about a year ago for a lot of money and I dont regret it. nor do I my shoes and boots that i bought about a month ago. or my computer.

I mean when i went to prom my whole outfit was £1600 over all.

I Am also planning when i turn 21 or I stop growing to get a suit from
Savile row.

The money included the watch and a really nice pair of Italian leather shoes I bought.
Even Armani watches are expensive

If you can afford it, then it's fine to enjoy finer, better things. After all, you have to use your money for something.

Such as Superdry or Timberland clothing ranges. :u:
Yes, you might as well treat yourself because you are worth it. What is the point of saving with such rubbish interest rates.
