Secrets, rants, opinions, anything you want to say about your fandom or a fandom or fandom in general, do it here! Anonymously, of course. Get it all off your chest.

(LJ's still lagging here and there, good luck.)

If you don't have any other essentials that you need to spend it on (rent, food, utilities, etc.), then I...don't really see why anyone would judge you (other than straight-up jealousy that you have that much cash to burn). The ones that I judge are those that spend it on fandom luxuries and then bitch and whine that they have no money for stuff they need (I had a roommate who did that with unemployment checks, and it drove me up the fucking wall).

Though I would suggest that if you have any kind of debt, use a sizeable chunk of the money to pay that off first before buying any games. Not judging if you don't, just saying it's a smart idea to get rid of any debt before you start spending money on non-essentials. And if you can spare it after your video-game spree, look into local (or national) charities to donate to.

If I had any debt I would absolutely be prioritizing that first. And essentials come first too - I can buy clothes for myself, holy shit...

But aside from clothes!! and rent to my parents... and I just want to spend money on myself for basically the first time in my life. /: Not charity, just... me. Is that a bad thing...?

Not at all. It's your money, you have every right and reason to spend it on you, especially if you've been dirt poor for a while (been there after not having a job for almost 6 months and having to move in with my parents again; hell, if I were in your shoes I'd be going out to some crazy-expensive restaurant just to say I did, and it was delicious). I'm just suggesting stuff to do with it if you run out of games to blow it on =D
