Do you ever feel guilty?

Spending such large sums of money for what is ultimately just decoration? Just dropped $115 for a statue and I feel happy and sad at the same time LOL. I only have a few statues as I only buy statues of my most favorite characters, so I can kinda stomach spending $100+ on a statue if it's of a favorite character of mine.

But then I see people who buy a garage full of different types of statues and I'm like bruhhhhhhhh

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

I get where you are coming from. With the prices of some of the more expensive stuff starting to sniff around the same cost of a modest family get away I do find myself questioning what is the best use of my discretionary money from time to time.

Sometimes.

I can't afford much, so statues/figures often feel like an indulgent purchase to me. I feel like I could be spending the money on better things, but they make me happy, so...

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

115$ in this hobby......haha! I've had a few remorse buys to which were cancelled or sold. Overall, life is short. Buy what u want, $ doesn't come with you when yr dead. We work hard for our $, we can treat ourselves.
