Fear the turtle!!! This is why we save, so we can do the things that mean something to us. I’m safe, though. UK sucks this year!

We Save To Live. that’s a good motto, don’t you think? what’s money good for, after all? what’s your life good for, for that matter?! you’ve found what’s worthwhile to you, and that’s awesome.

Oh, I understand. You are saving money for what you consider important. This is what it is all about! we only live once. Only spend on the things that matter to us.

Good for you! It's your money, and you should be allowed to spend it (if you have it) for what's important to you.

Who cares if others don't understand? Lots of people don't get why my husband loves Magic the Gathering, which can easily become an expensive hobby. But it gives him hours of entertainment and is really his last bastion of spending on himself.

We all have something we love that's costly. I think the really brave thing -- in the PF world, anyway -- is to own up to it without being defiant, defensive or embarrassed.

I'm sorry to hear your team lost. But I suppose it gives you something to watch for next year, right?
