Your wishlist

Your assumptions

What your money earns parked somewhere safe, such as savings or Treasuries. 4.5% is an example; set it to your own rate.

The S&P 500 has averaged roughly 10% a year over the long run, before inflation. Past returns don't guarantee future ones.

Item by item

Bars use a logarithmic scale so a watch and a yacht fit on the same page. Each step is roughly ten times the last.

Where the starting figures come from

For general information and illustration only. This simulator does not constitute financial, tax, legal or investment advice, and results depend entirely on the assumptions entered. Actual costs, financing terms, depreciation and investment returns vary. Consult qualified professionals before any purchase or financing decision. Published by Splurging, a Zemria LLC publication.

The True Cost of Owning Luxury, Measured One Day at a Time

The Splurging Wishlist or Investment? visualizer is a luxury cost of ownership calculator that shows what fine watches, diamonds, supercars, blue-chip art, motor yachts and private jets really cost to own. Add items to your wishlist, set how long you plan to keep them, and choose how you would pay, whether in cash or financed. The simulator then breaks each purchase into a daily figure that combines depreciation, annual upkeep such as insurance, maintenance, crew and storage, and loan interest. Under its starting assumptions, a $15,000 luxury watch works out to about $2 a day, while a $2.5 million motor yacht runs more than $1,000 a day once operating costs and depreciation are counted.

Every purchase is also a decision about what that money could have earned instead. The visualizer compares your wishlist against two alternatives: interest earned on savings, which starts at an example rate of 4.5%, and a stock market return, which starts at 10% to reflect the S&P 500's long-run historical average before inflation. An animated bank shows money flying away when you splurge and gold flowing in when you invest, so the tradeoff between luxury spending and long-term wealth is easy to see. Adjust prices, upkeep, value changes, interest rates and holding periods to match your own plans, then download or share your summary. All figures are illustrative estimates based on the assumptions you enter, not financial advice.
