The key to SMART finances is SMART saving, spending, and investing. It can be difficult to know the difference between buying something that may be an investment or an unnecessary expense. Life is short and enjoying the journey (with some SMART luxuries) is an important part of that journey. Here are some items that may be worth their cost.

Inflatable Paddle Board
Paddleboarding has really taken off over the last few years, and if you’ve not tried it yet, then you really should book yourself a session. Now that the inflatable paddle board exists, it’s even easier to participate. Wave riders predominantly used expensive hardboards as a means of propelling themselves on to the waves. Now anyone can join. If you’re into watersports, outdoorsy and looking for a new hobby or challenge to master, then treat yourself to your own inflatable paddleboard.
Segway
The ultimate self-balancing scooter comes complete with Built-in Bluetooth Speakers and Waterproof Carry Bag. It is even Smartphone App-Enabled meaning you can track your location, extend training modes, play games and compete in competitions. If you want hours of fun, you’ve got the money to spare, and you deserve it, then get yourself a segway.
Whether it’s a Espresso machine or a rosin press, or another indulgence, don’t feel guilty if you have earned it and have your financial house in order. Make sure you are living to work, not working to live!
