"I feel like the biggest idiot on the planet"

#PokemonGO: I tend to stay free to play on this game just out of principle so when this Pokémon even rolled around this weekend I went out to do my free raid and spend some of my hard earned coins to do a couple more just to get the legendaries for my collection. On my second raid I got super lucky and caught a hundo groudon.That giddy excitement that I felt upon catching that thing resulted in me opening my wallet and obsessively grinding out the groudon raids until I had enough to power it to 50. Guys i spent 45 dollars to get there…I’m almost 30 with no kids and a good income in a relationship with someone else that also makes good money so this isn’t going to be a stress factor or anything. I just feel like the biggest asshole for spending that much money on a bunch of ones and zeros.Anyone else find themselves in a similar situation?Edit:The consensus here seems to be “ treat yo self every now and then” which the more I think about it, the more I think y’all are right. A few people mentioned that they spend more on a night at a bar than that which I can relate to a lot lol. I think going forward the mentality I’ll have is to keep being free to play but every now and then when I stumble onto a hundo Iv that I really really wanted, to spend money to max it out. On average this usually happens to me once a year so I’m ok shelling money out around that often.Last year I got a shundo lugia that I resisted the urge to spend money on and instead I tediously leveled it to 40 by grinding out rare candies so I thought I had the patience and wisdom of ghandi lol. I’ll probably spend money to max that out at the next opportunity.Thanks for making me feel better guys I guess im off to the master league with this bad boy. via /r/pokemongo https://ift.tt/8dJtLpO
