If it makes you feel better, some very expensive bags, just like Patek Philippes, go up in value over time

The same way you view her shopping habits, is the same way I view your “frugal-ness.” I’m not being insulting—but I truly do not understand people who aren’t into spending on expensive nice quality designer clothing/accessories when there’s so much disposable income. If our savings/investments are great and so are the kids accounts, why not splurge. I enjoy fashion and luxe, same way some people enjoy camping or playing an instrument it just makes me happy lol
I’m so glad you’re understanding! Im sure she appreciates that a lot..because no one likes to be shamed for the things they purchase especially if it makes them happy

How much do you invest each month as a household?
If she’s pending it out of her pocket, let her. However if she as so complains once about money…well you know what to do.
Because the quality is different.

Listen, I don't understand it either, I can't even bring myself to spend $300 on a purse, but as others have said - if she's got her own money and it's not hurting your family financial goals, maybe just let it go
You seem like a joy
for 3k that purse better be doin' laundry and dishes
I would never spend that much on a bag. The max I spent was $200 on sale like 4 years ago and still using the same one. I work way too hard to piss away my money on a $3k bag
😂😂😂😂😂
Why do you care if it’s not your money? Is she telling you how to spend yours? Live and let her live. My opinion would be different if she was jobless and living off you.
