would you spend money on someone you love?

I'm a very practical person. I don't really spend on things that is not really needed. However, if I have extra money, I would love to spend it to buy fancy things for my family. I'm not the type of person who will spend all the money today then there's nothing left for tomorrow. I usually save for the rainy days.

I love to spend money on my loved ones and I don't hesitate when it comes to doing so. My opinion is what good is money or material possessions if you can't share them and make someone other than yourself happy. I have spent a lot of money on my girlfriend which isn't always a good thing because sometimes I spend a little too much but it's a great thing to be able to make her so happy and give her all sorts of things that she loves.

of course, i will do that. i will spend tons of money for my loved ones because it is one of my ways to show my love to them. but i will only spend on things that will make them happy meaningfully, not on superficial things that will take away the values of my acts. i work and earn money for my loved ones, not only for myself.

I' so much like you! I hate and love it! haha I love seing my loved ones happy, and yet my pockets are always empty when I need to spend for myself! haha

I think I'm at the middle. I am not so stringy or such a cheapskate that I will say no to a loved one that is obvioously in dire financial need, but I am also not the type who will go all out just to make a loved one happy. I also watch out for myself for when I am in need, so that my family will never be burdened by myself. If what a loved one needs is of a practical one and that will really be life altering, then I'm all for it. But if it's just a luxury or just a carpicious want, well, maybe next time.

it hard to say who is right,but i think that if you really love someone.you are willing to give her everything you have,even your life.

Hi cutie... were you talking about me? Are you on my mirror? I´m just like you. I´d like to be the other way, as my parents were or as my parents in law are, because I´m in need many times. I have no cent on my purse because I give them all to my family. I´ve seen my parents work really hard each day, and achieve tons of material things, as houses and cars, business and employees. But what is really sad is that they got divorced after 29 years of marriage. Because both of them were fighting each day to gain more and more, and we are not family anymore, I cried daily for a year and after 17 years I still cry somedays, and I´ve been twice in therapy. I am the elder daughter and I just have one brother, we are two brothers. It seems that my parents worked so hard, that they forgot to love each other. I have been married for 15 years, I´m a stay at home mom and wife. My hubby and I are in a church ministry, and we have three children: My own family is everything to me. I spend all the money I have in them. Unfourtunately I can´t make savings but I try to have healthy finances. I lived with my parents in the rich part of the city, and now my husband and I are from the mid class, what I love. Because I receive much more blessings. All the love I needed when I was living with my parents I have it from my kids and husband. They are with me in the goods and in the bads. I work for them, and live for them. What else is life but true love? Blessings!...

Through the years, I guess I have pretty much changed a lot when it comes to spending my money. Back when I was still at school and had to live within my means, still relying on my parents' financial aid, I had always been uptight when it came to spending money. But now, ever since I had landed on a decent job and been earning quite enough, I tend to spend a lot for people I love especially with family. When it comes to my partner, I don't hold back that much when it comes to spending money but I tend to be more practical yet extravagant at some points especially when I think that we both deserve it. My partner is just like you. A little too extravagant when spending his hard earned money on people he loves, with family and me. But, in my case, I still try not to go overboard and I tell others to do the same 'cause during these hard times, it's okay to spend much on people you love so long as you don't make it a habit or do it weekly or something. It's best to set aside a few of your hard earned cash once in a while for emergency purposes instead of spending it like a millionaire in a day every day.

Love brings out the generosity in us. I think it's only natural that we want to please the people that we love. Giving pleasure to them comes in different ways. Others like to give material things. And I guess we both belong to that category. I see nothing wrong in it though.

I am easy to spend money for my family and friends. I don't have much money, but if I have extra money left in my pocket, I will sometimes buy something for my niece or cousins.

Yes I will spend money on someone I love.We feel happiness when we see that the people we love are happy. So for me, there are times that a simple thing or food makes a person dear to me happy so I buy it for them. Isn't it nice to share your blessing to others? Especially to person who are special to you?

I am a person that will do everything for the one I love specially to my family, so I spend money for someone I love to make them happy, and it will make me happy to see them happy. :)

giving all i got for the one i love for me is an attitude that i treasure, and i admire those who is doing it too, i can always work to have money but that money can't give me the happiness that i feel when i see a smile in the face of the people who are really dear to me,..

Offcource Yes .... Specially on my Daughter.... I will not thonk about the Budget or anything else that time.

When I read your discussion I am reminded of these 2 quotes I encountered lately: No effort is ever wasted, although some pay dividends later than you think. ~ Neale Donald Walsch The best gifts are held in the heart, not the hand.

I will definitely spend money for the people who are close to me. I am pretty thrifty to begin with but if I know that they would really really love a things and it would make there birthday then I would buy it. I would not go in debt for anyone though. I am very careful not to live beyond my means.

I lie somewhere between both the extremes. I am neither stingy nor spendthrift. I keep a specific amount every month for my expenses. From that I save a small amount and keep it to spend on my family. I have never been in a position where I have to choose whether to keep money for my needs or spend it on someone I love. So, I don't know what would I do in such a situation.

hi... when it come to my love ones i will spend a lot of money for them... but there are times that i have to be very strict on spending money... because i have to save some for emergencies.... so that i have a money to spend when we or i really need it.. and i have to make it clear...

Spending on a loved one isn't such a bad idea but one that also requires prudence. You simply don't spend to please but to sustain. If it comes to overspending in-order to buy more love or position yourself, then you are in futile endeavor. They will desert you when you stop overspending.

I would only spend on what is necessary. The people who love me should spend on me rather than asking or expecting me to spend on them. If my loved ones are not financially sound I would not mind helping them however if anyone asks me to spend money on worthless things, I am not interested.
