Would you sell or would you go?

For those confused by who Bruce is - Springsteen on Broadway.

I gree with a lot of your post @wis75 probably because it sounds we have similar spending and saving habits.

“Being too frugal, ie giving up experiences because of the cost, means not enjoying the here and now for the future. But, at our ages the future has arrived. Will using the thousands of dollars for household expenses trump the enjoyment of the event? I doubt it.”

However, one could chose to sell the tickets, make a few $K, and use it for another experience instead, like others have said a week vacation instead of a few hours of a concert. That’s because the vacation would maximize their enjoyment more, maximize their opportunity cost.
