Probably my Brand new dell laptop- $2500 or so.




(This is meant for Guyver01)
[If i had to say something that I would spend a lot of money on it would probably be something involving K.Reed)

Thanks

Flying Lessons: $1200.00 for private cert.

Would have cost $3000.00+ if I didn't know what I knew when I started. I'm about to spend another 600.00 for Instrument check ride after the 1000.00 I spent on getting the damn thing! And I STILL can't make any money with it! It's all for the LOVE...:)

That's LEGALLY make any money! ;)

Probably my Serotta ATi mountain bike, which I have about $2,700 into (and that reflects my getting the frame at $1800 below retail - on the showroom floor it would be ~$4,500).

I daytrade stocks and typically buy blocks worth $15,000 to $25,000 but will sell them within 15 minutes. My biggest one block was ~$35K but I only made a measly $100. At least it wasn't at a loss.

ack, with stocks dying the past year (since march) i wouldn't daytrade
unless you are wicked at short selling.

$10,000 for Definitive Technology BP20, BP10, CLR1000 speakers, Rotel 2channel amp, 3channel amp, tuner, preamp/dolby decoder, toshiba 32&quot; TV, and a bunch of other stuff to complete the package.

Next was $6,000 in mods to my old GTI VR6.

My next big purchase will be my next car, I want either a 89 944 Turbo S or a 96 LT4 Corvette...and I want to pay cash so my monthly money can go to fun stuff instead of car payments...the only thing I want to pay on a monthly basis are utilities and my mortgage.

Once I was jocking this girl right, and I spent $4.99 on her for a coffee. Damn, now that really hurt my wallet. Never doing that shi* again.
