What, if anything, are you contemplating buying for yourself, that is completely ridiculous, and silly, but you don't care?

I've got mad rhythm, so why not? My cajon is great, but I need more options and sound!

My desire is to buy a Video Camera plus a still camera with large zoom lens.
Video Camera - $600?
Still Camera - $800?
Zoom Lens - $1000 minimum.
Not prepared to spend that amount of money at this point in time.

@Gusman Nice list!
Yesterday was my birthday and I bought a box of TastyKake chocolate cupcakes. I ate 4.
That'll be about it for this year. 😏
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@RogueLodyte Lol. Good for you!

It’s simple really. I want a Swatch.
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@Secretsmile What design? There were so many!
Secretsmile · 51-55, F
@LadyBronte there is a man inside falling down.
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@Secretsmile Neat. I don't thinkI've seen that one, but there were so many!

The only expensive item I ever bought personally for myself was my DSLR.

Bought a new fridge for about $2.5 K AUD this year after using the old one for 15 years.

I believe in simplicity and hence do not buy many materialistic items.
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@scorpiolovedeep I've purchased a few things for myself these past 3 years or so. I don't have much that brings me joy these days, so I look for it myself in distractions, and hobbies I can immerse myself in. It's worth it to me right now.
scorpiolovedeep · 51-55, M
Understandable. I have experienced those situations too@LadyBronte
I bought a mannequin last month.
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@Gingerbreadspice Nice! I have a friend with several of them. She displays her vintage clothing. Very cool.
I would love to learn to rock the drums.
I cannot think of any frivolous purchases. I am single and I have to take care of my home, my jeep, my dogs, etc. It is enough. Sometimes I buy little things. I keep life simple. That works best.
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@PoetryNEmotion I understand. I have purged nearly every room in the house and garage - ridding myself of anything I don't actually use anymore. I don't spend much on me, but when I do, I budget and save to buy exactly what I want. Most of the time, it has been worth it.
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
Nothing.
I'm a practical Nelly.🥱

I dream of a new refrigerator,but budget says keep the old one.

I would like a new laptop,too much of a cheapskate to buy one, though.
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@Justmeraeagain I'm stuffy and
practical most if the time.
But when I've got to purchase something I buy the best I can so I hopefully don't have to keep replacing it. Doesn't always work out but I try.
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@LadyBronte makes sense
Another lifetime, in the same places, with my same friends, and do all the things that I was afraid to do in my first lifetime. No inhibitions, no problems, because I'll be a lifetime wiser.
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@cinsac Would be nice, huh?
🤔We should jam sometime.....

Maybe not silly, but completely uncharacteristic of me, I want an electric guitar with amp, and an effects pedal.
Not to play heavy metal or anything, I just love the tones and the resonance you can achieve, not to mention the scope of effects available.

Was inspired by a music Prof turned producer, and a profile of some guitar rigs.

Something as subtle as using a soft, flexible guitar pick with dimples can give a double strum quality, used to craft your own playing style.


I think the drums are a great idea. Especially if you're sense of rhythm is good.
They can be a gentle backing accompaniment, a soft brush like in jazz; or the center of a solo.
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@SethGreene531 Nice. You should go for it! You might be amazing and it could turn into a light be a life long hobby !

Absolutely yes on the jam!
@LadyBronte Great advice! I entirely agree.
There's exciting new worlds waiting, if only we try new things. Spontaneity is the spice of life.

☺ Looking forward to our first sound check. 🎶 🪇 🥁 🎸 🎶

Fingers crossed it works like that here, too.

HobNoblin · 36-40, M
Not sure, mostly I find stuff then I make something out of the stuff. So, I buy bolts ,saw blades, cuttoff wheels, welding rods and wire, screws.b
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@HobNoblin Nice.
Lilymoon · F
You should def go for it..
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@LilymoonI might. ☺
Cool 😎......
SpudMuffin · 61-69, M
It's not silly if it puts a smile on your face, and I bet it will!
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@SpudMuffin Thanks.
WonderGirl · F
I just bought a new laptop, and I love it. I got it as a backup for my other one. I see it now on sale with a larger SSD, and I want to get that one, too. It is crazy having three virtually identical laptops,
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@WonderGirl Sometimes you just have to go for things like that.
twistedrope · 26-30, M
>:/ A nixie tube alarm clock. I want it badly.
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@twistedrope That is cool! I've never seen one. I must investigate further!
Donotfolowme · 51-55, F
I am buying things for my son without thinking too much about the use or price. I am not very pleasant looking so seldom anything looks good on me so I don't waste money on myself - dress, shoes, make up or hair etc
Donotfolowme · 51-55, F
@PoetryNEmotion Aw thank you for saying that, not sure what made you say it.
I don't know what I can do 🤔
@Donotfolowme Because I see you on here. You are a good person. A kind one. So take some of that kindness and share it for you! You could take better care of you. Stop dissing yourself. Think. You have many good qualities. Concentrate on them. Praise yourself. Then slowly your attitude will reflect more positively. You manifest what you think. So think kindly about YOU. Any questions?
Donotfolowme · 51-55, F
@PoetryNEmotion Okay thanks I will manifest 🙂
smiler2012 · 61-69
[@ladybronte ]😆 too go crazy with your money and fork out on a craving 🤔you need too decide is do you want it that badly and worth the investment and you are simply not wasting your money on a fad
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@smiler2012 It's still a contemplation.
Musicman · 61-69, M
Go for it! You can be the next rockstar 😎 As for me, all of our money will be going to rebuilding the duplex. It took some damage during Milton.
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@Musicman Hope you can get everything done in a timely manner. I know all the insurance adjusters and construction companies are backed up there.
Musicman · 61-69, M
@LadyBronte I know and we have our annual seasonal renters coming January 1st.
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@Musicman Yikes! Good luck to you!
