your "high end" cabinets: manufacturer's cost of cabinets: $1200, retail cost $8000, (((pro))) labor: $3500, total $11,500 of which $6800 is pure profit to the closet system maker and $2000 is overpaid for labor. the actual installer probably only sees 15% of the excess labor you pay for |

Custom cabinets are expensive. This was supposed to be a light-hearted "grr women spend money on dumb shit haha" thread. Instead I'm getting flooded by Turo Redditors telling me to got to Ikea to save a couple bucks. |

Date: June 8th, 2026 3:41 PM Author: tokens in abundance Any time you have to spend money on anything it's a big expense. From a small meal to clothes to a car to travel to hotel. Anything you would voluntarily purchase is a big lift for whatever that thing is. There aren't any low cost affordable things where it's like you could do this over and over and it wouldn't impact you. All personal items and experiences are a lift. Everything is a lift if it's not survival it's a gouge. All items are now luxury items. No things that are, are not a big deal. Even if you have 3 million to live on for the rest of your life, one does not simply 'book a vacation' like it's nothing. You don't just 'buy a second home' anymore. Nothing is simple or easy. I don't care how rich you are unless you have fuck you money you have to budget for every little thing. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5872216&forum_id=2Elisa#49923136) |

It's telling that you wouldn't criticize this if it was the same size piece for my living room, despite the fact I use my closet 100x more than my media center. What you're saying is that you only purchase nice things when it's visible. I purchase quality things because I like quality things. |
