    I’m not gonna lie. It was not cheap. I could almost buy an iPod for the price. But a worthy purchase in my opinion. It’s a new way to read time and the equalizer-like style is representative of my interest (music). It is also a story waiting to be told in a conversation with a new person.

    I’m a pretty cheap guy in general. I don’t spend big bucks, I’d rather save or invest it in stocks or CDs. But when making this purchase a few days ago, it got me thinking about what’s worth purchasing. And here’s what I’ve concluded:


    Tony’s Golden Rule of Purchasing

    If it’s a) special, b) within 10% of what you would expect the price to be, and c) your gut is telling you “buy it”, then it’s probably a good idea to buy it (aka. GET IT :)).

    I think this is a good way to think about whether or not to purchase something.
    Right?
