Sorry desertblues. I did not see your post: it was on the page before.
Yes of course, you are right. That is the main point of the whole thing.
I am pretty sure that we can afford something like that without having to think twice about the practical aspects. (without being rich). It means that we do not have to make alternate choices. Note the we as she is the one that manages finances. My role is just to gather the stuff, hers to spend it. Nah it is not true. Being both intellectual we do spend nothing, may be she a bit more than me on shoes and bags and clothing. Me on food maybe (gave up smoking and drinking), certainly not on cars or betting or anything else. I'd like to buy art, but it is way out of my range by order of magnitudes, so I just forget about it. Travelling I am fed up with. When the baby will be 8 or 9 we will travel again. What turns me on is not something that money can buy.
I really like to be loved, but I rather be loved just by magic or by chance or by even pity than by merit or prodigality. It is more spicy. Anyhow, she deserves it for sure, much more than that. Ciao. thank you. I appreciate it.
