I resemble these remarks but I'm working on it. Permission to spend is a highly personal matter.

Christina, thanks for sharing! Yes - its a highly personal matter. Everyone feels slightly different depending on their situation & history with money. My general premise is that money is also meant to be enjoyed now, not just in 30 years

Agreed, but old habits die hard. I'm working on it. I forced myself to book a trip with my husband for a belated 30th anniversary gift that is 5x what we've ever spent on a vacation before. Progress.

Love to hear that! Enjoy the trip - you've earned it
