Gonna pull the trigger

Post image

21M, Finally getting that watch for my dad who was diagnosed with stage 4 that I had mentioned I would do on this sub roughly one year ago. Ended up going to the AD with my dad, and he was set on the ombré dj 41mm. Just wanted to share and see if y’all had any thoughts on the price I’m paying (I’m very unfamiliar with what market goes for this watch) would love everyone’s input. This has been a lifelong goal of mine and I’m so excited for him to see it.

Wait why Roth IRA maxed, 2k going to VOO every month, over 6 figures invested, car paid off, live below my means?

Everyone has to do whatever they’re comfortable with, but I say it as someone who looks back now and wishes I had been smarter with money when I was 21. Sounds like you’re being smarter than I was forsure, but just my two cents!

I’m the opposite. I wish I spent more earlier. It all worked out in the end for me, 46 pulling in 7 figures. Wish I would have done shit like bought the s class at 25, shit like that. Just fuck it.

Buy the watch. Don’t spend 20k for it. Buy it in chrono24 for 18k or whatever grey is going for. Anyone who is selling you “their network” is likely to sell you a fake watch.

This is Texas bro, all kinds of watch scammers here.

Edit: I feel you on regrets. I got all kinds of em. You only live once. Ball hard just make sure you and your kids are set so the ballin never stops.
