Wait, what? You're wife is saying to spend the money? And you dare argue the point? It's your toolbox for your job.
You can't scrimp on your tools in your toolbox. (and sure, I totally get there are some tools that are overpriced for what they do, and others that provide value for money...). I'm regularly frustrated by Adobe products. I don't need them often so make do with the old version I have rather than spend big dollars on something I rarely use. My wife would say to spend the money on the Hawaiian holiday. Personally, I'd rather stay home for a week than go away for a week. The Internet is always slower, and I feel a sense of loss when I get home and only have memories (not always good ones either!). You could buy a sweet laptop for that, and you get to keep it after you get back from spending the $$. Each and to their own I guess. :) On Mon, Jul 1, 2013 at 11:22 AM, Greg Keogh <[email protected]> wrote: > I tend to agree. $3700 is a lot if you just want to play at home >> > > I'm a one-man business, so that's a pretty frightening cheque to write > every 2 years (I could fly business class to a Hawaiian holiday for > that!!).
