I trimmed my money tree.

April 20, 2002

I trimmed my money tree. What's the point of money if you can't spend it, eh? I lightened my Wheel of Fortune load on thursday by buying some Paradigm speakers I've been dying to get since I first heard them in August. I'd been saving up to get them and once I got my windfall it was tough to turn them down.

I know I shouldn't go wasting all my cash on lust objects, but I think part of the point of getting "free money" is spending it on stuff you couldn't/wouldn't have bought otherwise. How many times have you said "I would buy so many CDs if I had $1000 fall in my lap?" I've said it a lot. So I bought my speakers and I can't wait to listen to the best speakers I've ever, possibly will ever, own.

Hey, you buy nice stuff and you don't have to buy it again. You'll probably get 20 good years out of those speakers. Enjoy 'em.
