Hello again Lemmy! I have another question.

Context: I took a motorcycle safety class, was nervous but enjoyed it, researched motorcycles, found a few I liked, talked to a dealer about them but ultimately, I couldn’t finalize a deal, talked myself out of it basically

I was curious how others might justify a purchase that has no purpose other than wanting something.

For clarity, I don’t need anyone to justify me buying a motorcycle. I want to read about your thought processes for buying something you want 🙂

As always thanks for replying and have an awesome day/night!!

    That’s what Xmas is for. Being asked what I want by family is frustrating because I don’t really want things, and few things I do, I just buy.

    So anything I might like but can’t justify buying goes into the Xmas list for other’s to buy.

      Hmmm 🤔 I wonder if I could get my family to buy me a motorcycle?! I’ll have to think about that one.

      Agreed though, any gift giving holiday is probably a good way to get something you may not buy for yourself. This is a good approach.

      Thanks for sharing you thought!!
