    I’m really glad I couldn’t afford a Tesla back when the Model 3 came out because I probably would’ve bought one.

    Things I actually fell for… mostly video games, but it’s not the end of the world. Mostly it made me much more discerning with new purchases.

      I have this weird habit of buying the less popular but arguably better thing. I went with windows phone, a nook instead of a kindle, an zune mp3 player, and a Mustang MachE instead of a Model Y. That last choice might have been the only one that ultimately paid off.

        I miss my Zune. It had a great trackpad for scrolling. I had the 8gb model that was about the size of a granola bar. It felt like amazing, futuristic tech!
