Why do people care what other people spend on things?

I don't really care if you use only hand-me-downs and shop at goodwill or if your child dresses in gold-plated clothes. It doesn't really affect me at all...People really like to get their panties in a wad over it on here, though.

    I care if people are putting their kids in gold plated clothing..that would be so uncomfortable and not very breathable...

    I would recommend jewels instead.

    I don't care at all what people spend their money on, unless it affects me directly, in terms of wanting a loan (BIL)...THEN I'll get my judgy on...

    Yeah I tend to keep my judgy for people in my life who spend stupidly or people who post about being in debt and then turn around and post about what they're spending.  I think that's dumb (and it's likely I'd post that), but in general, I don't really care what people spend their money on.

    I don't care what other people do period, unless it directly affects me, which in that case is usually only immediate family. Do I agree with other people's choices all the time, no. However I don't judge them for it.

    I just got here, so I have no idea what this is in reference to, but I don't 'care', so much as I find it amusing when some people here post about having money problems or lament that they don't have cash for this or that, but then they are raving about shopping @ expensive kid's shops. Again, it's not a big deal; people have priorities and if that's theirs, that's great. I just have to chuckle at it. I save my panty wadding for more important things.
