That snack pack at 3am.

Spent $800k on a house remodel. We gutted it and rebuilt it.

I did all the plans myself, I got them approved by the city, I made all the interior design decisions (my wife had veto power but left 90% of it all to me). In theory, in my area, the house has gone up in value by equal to or more than what we spent.... but realistically I overspent. The amount I pay for loans is enough to make my very hefty salary seem low, but I don't regret spending the money (It didn't help that interest rates went up right before we pulled a $500k loan!). The house is awesome and it's MY/OUR house since I did the design myself and I worked with the contractors throughout the entire process. I know every trade off we made and I can tell you why we made every decision. Doing this was a bucket-list item... but yeah... I overspent.

Tossed a hefty chunk of change on a Maschine+. AKA fancy beat pad for finger drumming/music production that can operate as standalone device. Did catch on sale, but still a hefty investment.

While not as "responsible" as other things I'm saving for, it's been a fucking blast! Always fun having an easy way to kick beats without schlepping a full kit, and tbh I have so much more potential for making weird noises with the pad.

My previous bass guitar had one of its machine heads snap off, and I had rehearsal that same day, so I looked online at the used instrument stock at local music stores and found a bass guitar used that was a very unique, discontinued model that I'd been essentially dreaming of for a while, and happened to be there.

What I probably should've done is replaced the machine head, which would've been a very quick and cheap fix, but I instead bought the new bass and then took it to use at rehearsal. Now it's my daily driver and I'm very glad I got it.

Tickets to Avatar: The Last Airbender in Concert and the merch I bought at it. I spent something like $200 in total, but it was WORTH. EVERY. PENNY.
