I know what you mean, biftek. I don't know why, maybe it was just the way I was raised, but I hate showing off material possesions. I buy things that make ME happy, not to impress others. When I bought the "big toy" (my car) it was because I set some lofty goals and accomplished them. It was a present to myself. A few years ago I didn't care so much, but now I don't take it out very often anymore because I feel bad about it; makes me feel like I am trying to be a show off or something and it actually makes me feel bad because I know there are other people out there that are just as deserving (if not more) but are not as fortunate.
