What is something that you'll never buy no matter how much money you have?
 
Brand new car, ALways in my family got a used car. I mean why spend $30K for something that it's just a box on wheels. Then again there are many many more things that I never buy. Big list but it's mostly things that I do not need. Why spend money on things even if they are on sale and you do not even need them.
 
I second the new car thing. I learned from my history teacher that a "New" car is technically considered used and instantly loses value the second you drive off with it. So why would you buy a new one? You can't even argue that new is objectively better because manufacturers fuck up all the time. New =/= improved.

This and a brand spanking new mansion. Not to mention the property tax would be high too.
 
alcohol/tobacco and stuff aside, i will never buy a first class flight :P

almost thrice the prize of an economic ticket to feel absolutely the same.

It is very high, I'm in a five-bedroom home and the cost is double. Council tax is higher then a three-bedroom home and not that note the cost of heating and electric is going up
 
A super expensive cell phone would be too easy to lose. I have a problem with it. In that case, unless insured, I would never buy it. Basically, I would want to avoid anything easy to lose and expensive.
 
A Peloton cycling machine.

Not after they ruined the 2019 French Open by running their ads constantly through it.

Yeah, two and a half years later, I'm still mad about that.
 
I will not buy things that I do not need. It will be a waste of money if I do it. Besides, I am always on the practical side.
