So I'm frugal. Painfully so. I get physically nauseous if I spend a large sum of money.. even if it's necessary (i.e. a $1000 repair). I make good money and have a good chunk of savings but I still don't take vacations or treat myself at all.
I've wanted a motorcycle since I was a kid and have been thinking about finally buying one this year. All in for insurance, gear, a training course and the bike itself I'm looking at the ~4000 ballpark which is fine - I'll still have 8 months of expenses tucked away in savings left over. I know I can comfortably afford it and will get a lot of use / joy out of it but I have a feeling that I'll end up backing out because of how cheap I am.
Anyone else have an almost unhealthy relationship with money like this? How did you get over it?
