What’s the most money you’ve ever spent on a meal? Was it worth it?

This isn’t the easiest question to answer because it requires a long story which I’m not interested in writing just now.

I will go so far to say the most expensive meal I ever paid for, was my ex stepson’s wedding dinner in Las Vegas. My ex-wife had the brilliant idea that we would have it at Ruth’s Chris steakhouse at Harrah’s Las Vegas. Not the cheapest place to eat by far.

The wedding party was pretty small and not a lot of people attended so she figured it wouldn’t be too much money. However, everyone ordered pretty much everything they wanted, (appetizers, drinks, seafood, steaks, and dessert) except for me, my ex-wife, and my ex mother-in-law (we all shared dinner).

We had thought that people would be picking up their own meals aside from the bride and groom, but in the end, I got stuck with the entire bill. When the bill finally came to me, it was $2200 for the dinner. Truly, the most expensive meal I’ve ever paid for in my life.

Was it worth it? Well I know they (the bride and groom) are now divorced as am I. There’s a whole stressful story that goes along with this meal that I am again, am not gonna go into right now. So, I say no, it was definitely not worth it.

Having to ask the mother of the bride for a loan to cover this meal is and was the most embarrassed I have ever been, but that’s another story for another time.

As always thank you for reading…
