^ This pretty much sums it up. My family, especially my parents, are the same way. I upgraded to my ZL1 back in May. For a whole month my dad kept giving me a rash of crap and giving me the you got to get your finances in order talk every time we would talk to each other. I told him that as long as I can afford the payments and still meet other obligations I can do what I want with my money.
I also had to tell my parents that if they continue to harass me over what I do with my money if I am not putting myself in a financial strain, I would quit including them in my successes and accomplishments, such as buying a nice car or house. Haven't been harassed since. [emoji16]
