You have to treat yourself sometimes!

Hey guys, I just wanted to remind you that you have to treat yourself once in a while, after all, you only live once!


Many people here are completely invested, live almost at subsistence level and hardly treat themselves to anything.


But you should treat yourself and not invest every cent, especially young people.


I know you all want to get rich and lead a chilled life in old age, but think about now and today. Money comes back, great memories don't.


To cut a long story short, yesterday I signed a purchase contract for a semi-converted campervan and will be picking it up next week.

There's still a lot to do but it's perfect for us as we don't quite have the time to work on it for weeks/months but we can still contribute our know-how and personal touch for a few days.


17.500,00€ and another planned 2500€ for the final finishing are planned.


An investment that won't (or at least shouldn't) increase in value like on the stock market, but represents an investment in quality of life for us and our 3 animals.

Since we often had to leave our two dogs and the cat for vacations, we have solved this "problem" and can travel throughout Europe without major costs and enjoy the world 🥰


Have a great week and don't always just think about investing ❤️


Ps:

The price of oil can now drop again 😁

I got married last weekend and set a good example in terms of spending money to treat yourself. Have fun with your campervan!

Full agreement! You only live once, as far as we know.😉 But I'm sure Musk will soon come up with an idea for eternal life in space!

That's right. This year we treated ourselves to a new Tiguan and a second-hand Polo. We also had a patio built in the garden and bought a Weber barbecue.
However, the deposit has only shrunk slightly.
It used to be at 200k and is now at 180k.
But it's true, you only live once. Treat yourself to something from time to time.

I just got myself a new Vespa and a Q7. It's just fun . With almost free travel, you're wrong about camping.
We have one too, but with fuel, tolls and camping it's just as expensive as a flight and hotel and you can't stand anywhere free. But I recommend the Parkfornight app

Wow mega cool, congratulations! 🎉

Greetings from Saint-Raphael on the Cote D'azure 😃. 10 days with the family and a 4-night city trip with a buddy at the beginning of May. September vacation is already in Planung✌🏼. Investing is important, but vacation even more😉

... don't tell me, I've just bought two new 3D printers plus a new laptop with my girlfriend... D In total almost 6,000€ all together. That must be enough money to spend until the end of the year. XD

(And the bill doesn't include the running costs for filament or other things! XD)

@Metis I didn't write "everyone here" either 😇

I'm happy for you 🥰

@Metis what do you do with such printers? Sorry. I have no idea. Just interested.
Best regards 💥🗡️

@He-Man Basically everything that is too small or too complex to be made in wood. :D Brackets, holders, adapters, decorative elements (my girlfriend prints them...), we are very individualistic and often never found the exact matching things to buy... so we design and print them ourselves. :D

Also thought about a new TV .75 inch
The old one from 2009 and 43 inches is still top but the eyes are not getting better 😅

That was clear, everyone treats themselves to everything at once! I don't even treat myself to a kebab and prefer to eat an 80 cent salad 🥗😋 with tuna. Of course you're right Chris and have fun on your travels 💕

That is the right attitude.

Cool thing, I'm also looking in that direction, although I'm more interested in a Defender and then departure with roof tent and co.

Apart from that, I treated myself to a nice gravel bike last winter and a few little things on the side.

My biggest expense so far is coming up in 3 weeks: the rest of my wedding ^^

But after that, I'll be investing more again for the time being, no more indulging.

@Artiskon would also have been my first choice but with 3 animals simply too small :)

I treat myself to quite a lot in terms of vacations. Japan last year, Southeast Asia and South Korea this year and today I bought NFL tickets for London. If the price is okay or I can book with miles, I fly business. I practically never eat out and don't drive a fancy car.

I bought SUV cash a few weeks ago. Nice feeling.

I grant you! Signed the purchase contract for a new, used car on Wednesday. Also has more than one radio and four wheels. 😁👌

I've been putting off vacations for 8 years, when I have time again (probably 2028) I'll go to Scotland, Norway, or both.

You're right! I bought the BYD sealion 7 excellence (with state subsidy 44k) and last year a Honda cb650r, which I converted myself. Since it was stolen the day before yesterday, I now have to get a new one, maybe it will be the new BMW r1300r for 20k😅

@dividend_champion_1570 shit, good luck that she comes back 😬
Unfortunately I don't think so😭 I'll make the best of it, refund the purchase price and parts and then I'll just get something new that I haven't driven yet (boxer or 3-cylinder)

Have fun with the camper and older people should also be able to afford something 😉.
