More often than not we like to indulge in a few guilty pleasures: chocolate, ice cream, carbs. You know, the usual.
So now that we are in a recession/depression, why are we suddenly feeling guilty when we indulge in something that makes me feel better?
A little treat now and then won't hurt and just because we can treat ourselves and others can't, does that make us bad people. I personally don't think so.
I'm not the richest person in the world but I do know that it's okay to splurge every now and again. And quite frankly, if you can afford to splurge all the time, go for it.
I always say that with my first real paycheck, I am going to buy a pair of Christian Louboutin shoes and I take a lot of heat for that statement. People say that I don't need a pair of $900, I could instead use that money for other good purposes, charity.
You know what I say? I donate my time and money all the time to charity and to others, I can take a short break.
Besides, Christian Louboutin is worth it. :))
