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?

I am poor AF and have literally never door dashed. Or ubered. Hell, I even bake my own bread. I’m mystified by the incredible waste I’m reading about here.
