I don’t understand a world where spending $1k/mo on business equipment that is used to earn dozens of times more than that is crazy. It’s barely more than my minuscule office space costs.

My insurance is the vast majority of that $800, fwiw.

Having a 10% faster laptop does not enhance your ability to earn money in any meaningful way. Just like driving around in a luxury car doesn't enhance your ability to travel from point A to point B in any meaningful way.

It's okay to like spending money on nice things, it's your money and you get to decide what matters to you. What you're getting hate for here is claiming it's justified in some way.
