Is anyone else compulsive with money? I just dropped more than 20k on something I don’t really want, don’t need and knowing resale is difficult and worth half of purchase. And, this is at a time when I need the money.
The only thing that felt good was the seller making me feel important while I was inquiring, considering and paying. Guessing the seller was good enough to know I was an easy target.
I’ve tend to do this every couple of years and I believe it’s either from trying to run away from myself… to do something really big hoping it will change my life or who I am. Or, just a masochistic move.
Ironically, I am a serious penny pincher and live frugally by choice. Except for the times I’ve done this. Now I have strong regrets and I’m a whole lot more broke.
Aspie thing or something else?
