I'm young, but maybe I have some more classic perspective - most of my purchases are done with the mindset that it is an investment

It's kinda like how I view Christmas gifts. I'd much rather give something that is useful and will last, rather than lots of semi-useless trinkets that get forgotten after a couple of weeks (and later just thrown out). Christmas at my family's is often very quirky and atypical. I was quite happy last year when my mother got me a vintage Wagner cast iron skillet
