Substantiv
extravagance - excessive or superfluous expenditure of money.
extravagance - prodigality as in extravagance of anger, love, expression, imagination, or demands.

Extravagance is unrestrained excess. Extravagant behaviour includes the frequent purchase of luxury goods, and was once considered one of the seven deadly sins (frequently known, in Latin, as luxuria); as a result of semantic change in the Romance languages, lust later replaced it in the list. However, when the adjectival form - extravagant - is used to refer to a person, it is usually considered to be a description of eccentric behaviour, rather than a moral criticism.
