For me it would have been buying the steam frame (but I am still in the waitlist). Also, I recently gotten into the 40k lore, but there is no way I can find the time and physical place to get into wargames.

Buy a classical guitar.

I've been eyeing them for about ten years now but I don't play enough guitar to justify the cost just yet. At some point I'll probably just wake up one morning and buy one and play it plenty and wonder why I waited so long.

Once you get into fingerstyle, it's hard to come back !

I recently bought a Takamine classical guitar for $200. Not to say that is affordable for everyone, but I think it was a good price and the guitar sounds great

I've been eyeing a Cordoba C9 or Yamaha GC12C for awhile. Kind of figure I'd save it to treat myself, celebrate a promotion or something.

I thought about getting something more affordable like you've described just to scratch the itch, and maybe that'd be better than depriving myself this long. But I guess having a luxury to look forward to has a positive psychological effect on me.

Depending on the model you probably got a great deal on that Takamine too
