What do You Spend Your Money On?

This is a fun topic to broach – what do you spend your money on? Of course, what is meant is what do you spend your money on beyond the necessities (and some people may consider the necessities differently). But, with your household disposable income, the amount which is left over after paying your mortgage, your energy costs, food, insurances, etc., etc., how do you allocate your hard earned dollars? The way you spend your money says a lot about your priorities. And, of course, the way you spend your money now as opposed to how you spent it a several years ago when the economy seemed rosier has probably been altered.

Many people like to spend their money on clothes, shoes, and jewelry. It’s paramount to them to look good. Others like to ride in style, and have a car that is souped up or even a deep, throaty sounding Harley Davidson motorcycle. Some people couldn’t care less about material things so much, but put more emphasis and spending on travel, and their money goes to the airlines, the cruise ships, hotels, and resorts. Some people love to eat! Their money is spent dining out on fine foods at fancy restaurants. Still others love to spend their money on toys, like boats, or ATV’s. And then you have people that dig collectibles, and can never get enough in their collection.

There is a group of people that are quite careful with their money, allocate it wisely, and don’t live it up as much. They don’t have money coming out their ears, but they do spend it and don’t skimp once they find something that is really worthwhile that they know will improve their quality of life. While these folks might choke when you tell them how much it’ll be for their college-aged kid’s textbooks this year or that they’d need to plan on spending $50 bucks to take their family to a movie and have some buttered popcorn, they don’t even flinch when you mention the cost of something that they understand is very high quality and will last (like cars that were once made of steel). We get to talk to a lot of these types of people. You probably know the type. Even those who are well-to-do behave in this manner much of the time. They believe in keeping the money supply in circulation, but are quite efficient in how they circulate it. Once they hone in on something that they can plan on having for a long time (we’re talking decades), their ears perk up.

We’re happy to be in the business of offering products that can last decades. And we love it when we can match up with a consumer who has the same mindset. Our latex mattresses will last you 20 years, or more. Ours is not a consumable product. We don’t plan on selling our customers the same thing over and over again. There is no built-in obsolescence. The only way we can get repeat business is through you understanding the quality of what we have to offer and buying a sofa mattress (or rv mattress) if you already have our latex mattress, or our latex mattress if you already have our rv mattress or sofa mattress. Of course, we get referral business as well. But we are unique in today’s world in that we don’t take your money over and over again. We are kind of old-fashioned that way.

Are your purchases giving you long-term fulfillment and value? The older you get, the more you’ll gravitate to this kind of spending. Try out one of our latex foam mattresses; you get a 100 night sleep trial, so you have nothing to lose. You’ll see the value in it, and definitely get your money’s worth. Oh, and after 20 years or 30 years, come back if your latex mattress needs to be changed out.
