Also, any point in selling my Rebel XS, or should I just hold on to it.

I'd sell it unless you want to use it as a back up. A lot of photographers like switching cameras instead of switching lenses, so if you are ever in that situtation, it comes in handy. If you're not going to ever use it again, I'd sell it now and get more for it. Otherwise it will likely just collect dust.

Looks like they aren't worth much so probably better to hold on to it as a backup.

I'm good at one thing and one thing only... wasting money.

I trolled my fiancee to be able to buy this. I changed my FB status to "engaged" (even though we were engaged a while ago) and when she "liked" it I said, "can I get a 60D as an engagement present?"

Wasting money happens to be my forte as well

Well I still haven't pulled the trigger. Wondering if I should get the 430 ex ii as well. It would definitely help with indoor lower light stuffs.

An off camera flash is a must have if you want to take great pictures in less than perfect conditions. Period. Especially indoors. Your other aproach is to get a faster lens with a larger aperture, which can get really $$$$ for anything with a zoom. Get the flash. It's probably one of the best investment you can get.

Here's a site I found that might help you decide. I know it's pricey, but it's well worth it. It's also a lot cheaper than a super-fast zoom lens.

Enablers.

$1600 sitting in my cart right now.

Thinking about what else I could get for $1600.

Ha. That's funny because I worked my way through my Bachelor's degree as a pole dancer in San Diego.
