Over my life, I've noticed that my expenses for living fall into one of three buckets: 1. Exciting buys 1. Wise purchases 1. Necessary costs But I'm mostly curious about that first one... #### What is your favorite kind of exciting buy? My exciting buy might be a new musical instrument even though I have plenty, a new video game, purchasing art, a vacation, a luxurious meal, etc. And less on the fun side of things, my other categories would shake out like: - A wise buy might be investing in a house or business, putting money away for savings, or spending a premium on [a BuyItForLife kind of purchase](https://sh.itjust.works/c/buyitforlife) to avoid buying a new one every year. - A necessary buy is probably the same as most others: housing costs, utilities, clothing, household goods, food, transportation, etc.
