That feeling comes from the $1000 designer T-shirt. And no different from those who feel superior when they brag about that luxury grand tour they took over in Europe, or wherever else.

I get that feeling when I brag about the $10 shirt I bought at Boscov's. ;D

Actually, I get that feeling when I wear a silk blouse that I found for $3.
And yes, "it absolutely is pronounced 'on-deeve'."

We all find ways to brag about our response to consumer culture -- whether it's about how much we can afford, or what a great deal we got, or how we surround ourselves in luxury, or how frugal we are, or how little we care because we're above all of that. And yes, all of these perspectives are capable of bestowing priceless feelings of superiority.

I enjoy the surge of accomplishment I feel when an individually-purchased interest gets picked up by a mutual fund. I feel even better when one of my holdings splits. Dividends are the best!!
