The High Life

For those who might know, I have money, and I dam sure like to use it. Whether its buying random items, shopping with a purpose or spending for a party. Some of you may think that I go a bit over the top sometimes (i.e. formal) or really just buy things I dont really need. You may see it as a waste but I sure as hell dont.

So buying random items, usually very expensive ones is kind of what I’m known for. I have expensive tastes in accessories and chocolate. Buying expensive accessories is kind of what I like to do, although I dont do it often. This new hobby was only discovered this year, and I can say that I have done it only 3 times. And those close to me will know that its my own money which I use. My friends who are reading this can probably name two off the top of their heads – a Gucci wallet ($350) and an Armani watch ($340). One less known thing that I have purchased albeit through claiming health insurance is my pair of Ralph Lauren sunglasses ($350). Now as for my taste in chocolate, I will usually eat any chocolate, although I have the acquired taste of $95 a kilo chocolate from David Jones. If you disagree with the way I like to spend the money, I only have one thing to say – its mine not yours.

Shopping with a purpose, is something that I usually do a few times during the holidays. Now I like to collect television box sets, each worth at $40 a season. And some of you may have noticed the size of my TV on DVD collection, and would probably think that I have invested a lot in it – but its all worth it. Now the other thing I usually shop for with a purpose is cookware. Basically if you can shove it in an oven, or use it to fry something then I would buy it. Many people would see this as unneccessary, as you should only buy what you need. However I would like to point out I am merely being prepared. So you can take your thoughts and shove it up your ass.

Now splurging for a party is fun. I was telling my friends the net worth of stuff, I would be wearing or carrying on Formal night and someone pointed out to me that it was 4 digits. Although half the stuff, was not for formal only, and would be used during other occassions. Here is a breakdown of what I spent for formal specific stuff: Suit – $400, Shoes – $120, Shirt – $50. And then there’s the accessories: Wallet – $350, Watch – $340, and sunglasses – $350. So that comes to a grand total of $1610.

So I like living the high life, do you? And before you say anything think about how you would spend your money if you had any.
