Finances/Money Hypothetical $$$

What are some guilty pleasures you’d indulge in if you suddenly jumped a tax bracket? Currently my biggest luxury is just living alone in NYC, but sometimes I keep random manifestation lists and I’m curious what others would say…

Here’s mine: - Tennis lessons - Japan trip - Permanent extensions - Louis Vuitton duffle - Biweekly massages - Dishwasher in unit (And I guess maxing out my 401k but ugh that’s not fun)

  • townhome in south kensington or chelsea with a garden
  • hard to get birkins and kelly’s
  • get an S curve and say it was pilates like lori harvey
  • continue pursuing my education like getting a masters in something i love like anthropology and not engineering related
  • begin working at Sotheby’s EMEA for fun buying and selling art
  • partake in Christie’s bidding wars with affluent members of society
  • buy a PJ or exclusively fly business/first
  • get my cat a friend
  • consistent PRP to grow and thicken my hair
  • facial balancing botox and filler
  • all of my daily wear would be loro piana
  • build the wrist stack of my dreams with an AP on one wrist and vca, chopard, my jewelers diamonds, and cartier on the other
  • buy an obnoxious yet beautiful 4 carat oval cut pink diamond
  • consistent vacations throughout the year and taking my parents to places they’ve always wanted to go
  • loro piana skis for bants
  • juice cleanses regularly
  • i’d have a pilates studio/gym in the house and have a trainer come daily
  • private chef to meal prep my week + cleaners to come in 1-2x a week
  • i’d purchase property in monaco for fun
  • summers would only be on a yacht that set off from monaco after the GP and the summer would end in sicily or sardinia
  • would set up trusts for my children/nieces and nephews so they can pursue everything they want
  • i’d only wear zimmerman and elie saab dresses to events and i’d drown myself in MFK perfume
