Cheesy or not, I feel the same way. I rarely feel joy through material objects. The last thing I bought myself that really made me feel joy was a new mac for myself.
However, buying things for my wife makes me happier than anything

Is she high or low maintenance? Haha

Definitely more low maintenance kinda gal. She’s not coming for my money or anything she’s rather sweet. She’s very grateful for everything I do. And vice versa

I get what you mean. I bought rather nice ear rings for my wifey two Christmases ago - and it still gets to me when she wears them

I have very low personal material desires. As mentioned another time, my Zwift machinery to bike at home is the most recent thing I splurged on and still feel happy when I look at it.
It may sound cheesy, but the times I feel elated spending money on something is when I see either my wife or son happy about getting something. Joy has a transitive property for me. If B feels happy about C, then A (myself) feels happy about B being happy.
