My Reward
I decided to reward myself if I will be able to lose 15 lbs. by September – I’m going to get myself a new watch. It sounds cheap, I know, but I have been lusting (yes, that is the term actually) for a certain brand of watch ever since I can remember. And since I can finally afford to get one (if I can save for it and not buy other stuff), I might as well get it. I can think of it as this way – If I can afford not to buy Starbucks drinks from now until September I can save half of my budget for that watch!
I think watches are as good as an investment like jewelry, especially if you invest on the big brands like Rolex and Tag Heuer. They can also serve as fashion accessories seeing how trendy watches are becoming lately. If you cannot afford the classic expensive pieces, there are also nice but affordable styles in Fossil, DKNY, Kenneth Cole and Swatch (who would forget how popular that brand was in the 90s?).
As for me, I’m not really after a Rolex or a Philip Stein watch, I’d really want a Technomarine watch before the year ends:
Let’s hope luck stays with me until the year ends
