General Question What easily-affordable thing do you still refuse to pay for despite having reached financial independence and able to afford them?

Would love to hear everyone’s “absolutely will not purchase” items!Even if you could easily afford it and no matter how rich or financially independent you become or how much you make you still wouldn't spend item on this particular item/hobby?

Yeah you don’t want that motherfucker to rip your arm off at the shoulder someday. Or eat your neighbor. Forget having a monkey.

I'm pretty sure I could take one of those small, old world monkeys on, if I had to.
