What ARe You Willing To Pay For, That Others think Are Extravagant?

Wine & Art.
Last night paid $85 for a bottle of Chateau La Tour burgandy - 93 points.
Joining the Wine Spectator website for $75 was the best buy I've made this year.
Before I joined their database I was pouring crap wine down the drain,
now I go shopping with a wine list I know I can trust.

anything for my wife or my baby
Food, specially in a good restaurant
Electronics (think, for example, high fidelity speaker cables...)
BBing-related things (Protein, etc... Hell, you eat that, no shortucts with food)
finally, Cooper S tuning parts (though I'm running out of options already)

Good. And you are right you are better off single until you find the right gal. Then you are better off married. Oh btw you still skirted the question about why you were in jail. Clever, but I caught it.

LOL, that's why I love you man. Anyway, I would not pay his bail. And in keeping with this thread, I have thought about paying certain escorts for a good weekend, but what I want, I can easily get it for free, so why pay?

Also, please see one of the first posts on this thread. I specifically mention first class airline tickets for vacation. And no, those tickets would NOT be used on Curly Top.

Shoes...
Not so much for Fashion, but for quality, comfort, fit, and support.

I'll pay top dollar for good shoes because they last you longer and my ankles
are bad and wearing cheap poor fitting unsupporting shoes can wreck your day..
I just picked up 2 pair of Nice Casual Rockport Oxford Shoes last weekend for work. My feet are in Heaven..


Sunglasses

I'll pay top dollar also for good quality Optically perfect Sunglasses.
$100 -$200 or so.. I swear by Oakley or RayBan
I'm not paying top dollar for the Style or Fashion of the shades, but more
for Optical and Technical quality and materials reasons.

Living down here, they are a must. You wear them every day for hours.
Buy a hard case as well for them and they should either be on your face
or in the case at all times and they will last you 4 years.

Sunglasses are as much a neccessity for any of us Floridians as blue hair dye is for anyone living in Boca Raton
