It may be the weekend, but I’m really looking forward to Monday. I have a date with my wife on Monday that cost us $100 a ticket to go out to eat. You might be confused at this point, since dropping $200 on dinner doesn’t sound like the home cooking, frugal, hate to go out to eat guy I normally portray myself as. The thing is, this isn’t just any meal, it’s a 5 course gourmet dinner with wine pairing. It’s food I can’t make, and wine I would never pay the price per bottle for. It’s an experience, and it’s a night out with my wife. It fits the perfect description of money well spent to me.
Fist pump for date night with my wife, and for my favorite posts of the week!

Enjoy date night! Thanks for including my article.
One of my goals for 2019 is to track where my money goes. I am not a spreadsheet kind of guy so I will need to find a better tool to do that. My problem with apps is that they want to do more than I want. I just want my spending uploaded and sorted. That’s it. I don’t want any more information or be asked to set any goals or monitor anything – because then that brings anxiety I don’t really need.
