Is This What Happens When an Expensively Dumb Purchase Leads to Buyer’s Remorse?

The first thing I did this morning was Google “New MacBook Air M3” to see if there was any news on a possible event.

An official newsroom announcement from Apple caught my attention.

It revealed the upcoming release of their new MacBook Airs with the M3 chip.

I watched a YouTube video that explained how this MacBook surpassed the M1 MacBook Pro Max in performance, all at a third of the price.

The Apple Canada website gets pulled up, and I place my order for $1623.

As I eagerly await the arrival of my recent purchase, doubts start to creep in.

I’m more concerned with the price rather than the product.

The MacBook will be an excellent laptop, but what about that price tag?

At over $1600 Canadian, it’s not cheap.

I use my computer for work and don’t do anything personal with it, so I can try to justify it that way.

I still feel that it hasn’t helped with the little bit of buyer’s remorse.

Perhaps it’s because my income isn’t guaranteed.

I keep asking myself, “What if I don’t make any money in the next six months?”

That’s not a realistic thought, but it still pops up.

I also paid cash for the MacBook and didn’t finance anything.

You tell me if I’m being paranoid or worrisome for nothing.

Some reassurance either way would help!
