For myself, a toaster and a car are both needed whereas the camera's a
luxury item. It hurt me so much to part with my hard-earned dime, that
I never want to do that again. Does it hurt me to buy a car? Sure, but
I'm sorta forced to, if I want to go anywhere. A camera? Well, I'm not
good enough to earn a living off it, so for me it's a bigger decision.

Last month, someone ran my credit card through as a debit. The credit
card company charged me a $10 fee for that, and I had to call them up
and get it reversed.
