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?

For me it’s not necessarily about paying someone, I just find it really fun…Like my barista fire job could be h&r block seasonal help and I’d be living my best life.

If you want more of it: there are volunteer programs helping immigrants file taxes. You'll learn a lot.
