Very enjoyable read. My whole fucking box is “high regret potential” - I’m totally fvcked. 😂

That said, press the green button dumbass.

Wonderful post. It has me thinking about the watches purchased vs capital allocation to other areas. At times I have preferred to have the watch and not the investment opportunity. The watch simply meant more than an ROI. This makes me also reflect on Housel’s writings and your write up on his book “The Psychology of Money”. I heard Housel speak about paying off his house. He’s said anyway you slice it, it was a bad financial decision, it doesnt pencil, but paying off his house was the best money decision he and his wife ever made. That stuck with me. The difference in money decisions and financial. I Have reflected on this difference and your post on utility. They seem to communicate a similar sentiment. Sometimes the watch I wanted is worth the decrease in cash. Other times it’s not. Well written article
