How to Hack an Expensive Camera
"My wife and I always wanted a Leica camera and suddenly we realized that if we didn’t buy it now, we will not be able to for a while."<p>Is this the mindset of "better buy the expensive thing before we can't afford it"? I've seen this expressed before and it's not sound reasoning. If you wouldn't be able to keep that money in a savings account because you know you'd later find other uses of the money to provide better value then you shouldn't be comfortable spending it on a depreciating asset immediately. The only way it makes sense is if you trust your future self's reasoning less than you trust your present self's.
