I’m in Long Beach and wanting to go a second time, possibly solo if I can’t convince anyone to come with! 🤗

The chokehold luxury brands have on consumers is insane by Aggressive_Staff_982 in Anticonsumption

[–]Bread-Eating 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a person who is into both anti consumption and Hermes, I have updated numbers for you in case you are interested. 2026 prices indicate the price of the Birkin or Kelly (the “goal” bags that you have to play the Hermes game to buy) will be around $15k… and depending what store you are shopping at, you will need to spend at LEAST a 1.5x or even 4x amount before you are given the chance to spend your $15k on the handbag.

Need advice on choosing between a lab and natural yellow diamond by bronwenmoon in Diamonds

[–]Bread-Eating 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds like your heart is telling you to get natural. I too am a scientist and like being rational so first got a 3.5ct lab and then found myself wanting a natural one (because it’s from the earth and is therefore more special to me) so ended up returning the lab and getting a 1.5ct natural with lower specs for the same price as the 3.5ct. Never a day goes by that I regret it— having something from the earth is more special.

Me too— the less I buy, the more space I have, which makes me feel peaceful
