More like a budgeting plan.
I know how much I need to have each month to meet
financial requirements (ie. bills, books,
college, transportation). I also know how much I
will get to meet these.
Whatever's left is what I call "luxury money".
Sometimes I don't spend all my luxury money, and
sometimes (like this month) I do. 9.9;;
When I first started cel collecting, I thought
$50 was WAAY too much. Sad to say, my idea
of "too much" has gone way up. ^_^;;
I don't spend what I don't have. Plain and
simple. My strategy's more "Which do I want more?
A cel of "X" character or a trip to "X"
convention?" It's simply a decision on what I
want more and whether or not it fits my "luxury
money" budget.
So, spending $400 on my most expensive cel, was
not so much stressful to my wallet as it was to
my waiting for it. ^_^;; (However, it doesn't
mean I'm going to spend $400 on EVERY cel or that
it wasn't expensive to me. Only that at that
particular time, it wasn't.) ~_^
