I don't buy "expensive" stuff, most I've paid is £500 for a guitar. there's a rule with me and wifey, if the moneys saved and you can afford it without plunging into more debt then no arguments can be had. Goes for both of us.
Family, bills and a roof over your head come first.
After that, well it's up to you, as has been said earlier, you cannot take it with you.
Bottom line is if you can afford it you don't need to justify it - If you can't afford it then you can't justify it
An other angle is what pleasure it will give you for 10 years and hopefully more - Of course £5000 or so is a lot of money - but £5000 over 10 years equates to
£500 a year - or £41.66 a month - so just over a £1 a day - repeat a £1 a day - that is less than a s*it coffee from any main street coffee shop - Now is it expensive ? - and bare in mind at the end of 10 years you still have all the collateral in the guitar and probably more
A friend was diagnosed with lung cancer, 5 weeks later he was gone.
A couple of years ago he bought the Les Paul he had always wanted. At least he had it for a couple of years.
If you can do it, then do it. You never know what is around the corner.
I'm sold!
Yeah... but Mark is a professional at this kind of thing! ;-)
2. Get it delivered to work/bring it home when she's not in. Claim youve always had it or that youve painted another of your guitars.
