SPLURGES Meaning and
Definition
-
Splurges, as a noun, refer to instances of spending money lavishly, often on luxurious or extravagant items, experiences, or indulgences. It denotes a form of discretionary spending where individuals or groups treat themselves to a special or indulgent purchase beyond their usual financial means. Splurges are typically associated with moments of self-reward, celebration, or the pursuit of pleasure.
This term is also used as a verb, referring to the act of engaging in such extravagant expenditures. When someone splurges, they choose to go beyond their usual financial restraint, giving in to the desire for a special treat or enjoyment.
Splurges can take various forms, such as a splurge on a high-end vacation, a designer handbag, a fancy dinner at an expensive restaurant, or even a spontaneous shopping spree. The key characteristic of a splurge is that it involves discretionary spending on nonessential items, often reserved for fleeting moments of gratification or personal indulgence.
While splurges can be thrilling and enjoyable, they should be done in moderation to maintain a sustainable financial lifestyle. For some individuals, splurging occasionally may be a way to reward themselves for hard work or celebrate important milestones. However, others may view splurges as unnecessary indulgences that could undermine their financial stability. The concept of splurging can vary depending on personal perspectives and financial circumstances.
