Every thing else that you want falls under this category. A car, household electrical, electronic items, etc.
Exception is for the house as this falls under necessity.
I took the approach of running a company for these items. They have a lifetime and the funds readiness is directly tied to their useful lifetime. This is because I want an easy life. It is not worth it to clutter your life with problems created by these items.
Eg. A refrigerator in my home should run without any problem for 7 straight years. After the equipment hit its lifetime, I will consider to change it for a new one well before it create any problem. The item works for me instead of creating a problem for me. Easy life....

Build the Belief That Moves Mountains
Napoleon Hill, writing in the classic Think and Grow Rich, said that belief and desire are the beginning of all achievement. If one of those key ingredients is missing, success is almost impossible.
That might explain why a lot of people get excited about an idea (desire) but fail to follow through with it (belief). It's rare that we will attempt to do something that we don't believe in, and we will never give 100% of our effort to something without a strong belief that we can do it. It's our human defense mechanism. In As A Man Thinketh, James Allen tells us, "The will to do springs from the knowledge that we can do." In Above Life's Turmoil he tells us, "Belief always precedes action."
That certainly helped me understand why I'd find myself with some great ideas that I thought would be successful, and then six months would pass by and I hadn't done anything about them. I didn't have the deep down belief they'd be successful, so I simply didn't take any action on them. And that's the same experience that most people have that steals the great dreams they have for their lives.

- Do you have a strong desire but lack belief in your ability or the future?
- Are you working harder but can’t seem to make any progress?
- Are you frustrated because you just can’t breakthrough the barriers in your life
- Do you have a “settle for” attitude (ie., “it’s not what I want but it’s better than a lot of people have.”)?
- Are you tired of watching others zoom by on the super-success highway while you seem stuck on the side of the road?
