Name the most expensive personal item you’ve ever purchased (not your home or car).
The most expensive personal item I ever purchased has to be my digital SLR and lens. It was, is, a Canon 7D Mk II purchased to replace my ageing Canon 10D. I think the 7D cost around £1500. And I agonised for weeks before I ordered it. Putting up many arguments against buying it.
I think there is always an element of guilt, that this money is truly being spent on me, for my personal use and I know my wife isn’t going to be using it. All other major purchases are inevitably for the home, for the benefit of both me and my wife.
Which is why I am applying the same logic/guilt to buying the big lens that I want. It will cost probably twice the price of the initial camera purchase and that is why I have been ruminating for the last eight years
