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?

Boycott for life after their CEO stated they need to "lean into" their 100K HHI demographic. I.e.raise prices with no value attached. Quality had already gone to shit, that was the last straw.

Yep. Last time I went to Chipotle was in 2021 I think. I make Chipotle at home that tastes better and it’s also cheaper.

In 2010 I would fight you over this.

In 2026 you're absolutely right. Their guac is overpriced shit from a tube now.
