I'm not going to tell you how much I make, but between my wife's income (she owns an antique and collectibles shop) and mine, we're able to live comfortably.
We're pretty extravagant with our money - we spend it on things like food, clothing, shelter, vet visits for the pets, things like that. Two months ago, I went completely mad and bought a new pair of trainers and a coffee mug - on the same day. (I don't mean to be snarky, but I don't really get the question)

You guessed how to answer the question without even getting it. I basically mean when I say what do you spend money on meaning are you extravagant or basic? I'm quite basic, I don't go out buying lots of shoes and my car is quite good but not totally flash.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
