Relitivity

Some things are just relative. If someone makes 40k a year, buying a car and having a $600 dollar a month payment is not unreasonable. If someone makes 80k a year would a $1200 a month payment be unreasonable? I have friends that spend $1200 a month on child care. If someone is single and has no children to take care of, why would it be bad to spend that on something that is a lot of fun and brings a since of enjoyment? I guess to some people this would seem out of line and too far over the edge of what is appropriate. I think it's all just relative to the person and situation.
