If you were rich, what is something that you would refuse to buy?

Question

Leapfrog00 · Accepted Answer

A new car. Used cars are so much better because you can find out what has been recalled and what kind of bugs and kinks they have.

And expensive restaurants, yuck! I ate at one a couple of years ago and it doesn't even come close to a cheeseburger, fries, and a nice cold Pepsi. I do not know why people spend $50 for a plate of food that looks like something that came from the bottom of a pond.

I swear, if I ever decide to publish any of my books and become rich, I'm sticking to Taco Bell and Applebee's! (Yeah, I can never give up good surf N turf!)

Though, most art is a waste of money, I wouldn't mind having a painting of "Nighthawks" from Edward Hopper. I always wonder what the people in the diner are thinking!

Designer clothes.

I would not buy very expensive food unless it contained special nutrition or it was a birthday or wedding or valentines day. I would not eat too much lobster cause it contains a mild taste. I also would not buy designer things unless it was unusually high quality, so no Hermes bags. I would drink grape juice instead of ice wine. And I would not buy a sports car cause an SUV is safer for avoiding violent accidents.

There would be a couple things. Not a big fan of the big retail stores, like Gucci and Prada. Yes they have some nice things, but I can make them cheaper at home. I’d also say a mansion. I mean I’d like a nice house, but I’d prefer it to be outside of a town in the country with a couple acres. Nothing too fancy though. I do like classic cars and Shelby GTs so I will have those.

thatshydork · Answer

Anything that I know for certain I can make myself or anything that’s wayyy too expensive. If it’s a reasonably priced item, that’s fine, but if it’s overpriced (like for example: name brand bags) and I can find pretty much the exact same thing for less, I’m buying the one that costs less.

midnightmoon05 · Answer

I am happy with what I have in terms of wealth. I am comfortable to buy whatever I want.
I will continue to not buy junk/processed …and buy better quality/natural stuff.
I am not into materialistic stuff…I am more into life experiences… such as travel and understanding people.

mobiusforniner · Answer

Rich is a relative term. It has less to do with ones quantity of money and spending power and more to do with ones perspective towards life.

A truly "rich" person is approachable, well learned, educated on many subjects and overall just a well rounded badass such that people want to be around him. He wears whatever he wants and feels comfortable in, because he is not out to impress anybody.

WanderingLoveWizard · Answer

I don't know if this counts as a purchase, but I wouldn't give any to charity. You get rich and suddenly everyone's got their hand out. Well piss off, I earned this money

Anonymous · Answer

I have a lot of money and I have a house and a car and clothes I like and if I want something nice sometime I buy it. But I go to parties where there are absolutely ridiculous people who buy every expensive thing they see with no intelligence or imagination. That money could be put to much better use helping other people.

Unit1 · Answer

Apple products like Iphones. And Bugatti's. Louis Vuitton and similars. Overpriced jewelry. Basically many things the gangster rappers did without having any backup plans and they ran out of money. Their stories are almost all the same.

Except One Ferrari maybe just so i can feel rich and wealthy and unlimited.

BasedBaeBecca · Answer

I would refuse to buy things that are useless to me. For example, I wouldn't buy expensive brand clothes, just because of their high price tag. I would rather invest my time and money into things that are beneficial to my well-being.

Raaj4you · Answer

I am already living a good life. I am naturally attracted to lavish lifestyle. But I can't afford to buy all those things right now. I have bought only necessary items. When I become a billionaire, I will not limit myself. It's my dream to be a successfull and wealthy man. I will buy everything: Villas, apartments, supercars, resorts, farmlands, industries, IT companies, restaurants, 5 / 7 star hotels, yachts, islands, gold, silver, platinum, diamond, gems, jewelleries, etc.
