Did this one year I was annoyed at some friends on my bday from the week before, that purchase was a way better expenditure than any drinks/food I could've made hosting a party that time and brought me personally years of joy. Friends were fine, the purchase was luxurious for the time.

I am not saying over pay like getting ripped off. I am saying overspend like actually just buy the items you want, buy that couch ( and not the knockoff) but the one you actually wanted. You work hard, you should reward yourself and having nice things is fun. Tracking a record player down or a specific chair and then finally acquiring it and putting it in your house is part of making your house a home.

there's something so thrilling about spending money you don't have. the idea of "well i could get creamed by a car tomorrow so i'll buy this $30 art print that i won't frame for two years" encourages appreciation for the fleeting nature of life. that, and i really wanted that art print. it's a hamster saying "no thoughts, head empty." that's worth $30 to me.

Even if you end up having to go somewhere else, there still will be culture to get involved in, people to meet, things to learn, realizations to be made. All of that is still right there for you and it will be open in a way you won't even realize until you've done like a year or two. So it's truly still exciting times. As long as you feel generally good about the place you ultimately choose, your time is coming.
