Needs versus Wants

We, as adults, always caught in the middle of "I need this" and "I want this".

I always admit that oftentimes, when I go shopping for a certain stuff, I always end up in the register with a full cart. I guess it happened to many of us, especially ladies.

My mom told me that to avoid over spending, before going for a shopping, you must have a shopping list and go straightforward to the stuffs in the list, go to the register, and go home. I have tried it and it worked to me, like once or twice (haha).

Over spending, for like a couple of bucks is okay.

My question is:

Is spending almost $4,000 for a single cognac, okay?

I think, even for a rich person, this is a very good example of being caught between "I need this" and "I want this".

For me, it is not the price, but it is how you enjoy it.
