I actually calculated this today, apparently I've spent just shy of $950 on PC Games in the last year, I only make about $4000 a year...
Poll: what is your money sink?
- Thread starter Lev The Red
- Start date
Most of my money goes to games, the rest goes to whatever school project I need done in the next two weeks.
I need to start spending money on new clothes since I've dipped under the 120 pound mark. Which is fucking ridiculous.
I'm a 17 year old boy, and I'm hitting the weight range that a lot of the girls in my school want. I'll give you an example of how much weight I lost: In middle school, I was considered husky and very chubby; In 9th grade, I lost a lot of weight but fit into size 30 jeans, and now, in my senior year, I've got to be around a size 28 in jeans.
I don't get that I could loose so much weight in four years and still eat a lot and not gain any weight. Anyway, as for the OP; Who likes mudkips, we like mudkips!!

Definitely music for me. Being a percussionist is pretty expensive, even if you don't buy the large instruments themselves.
-Marimba mallets can range from $20-$80 a PAIR, so it ultimately costs $40-$160 in order to have a full set for 4-mallet literature.
-Timpani mallets can cost $20-$60 a pair.
-Fortunately, snare sticks generally range from $5-$20 a pair.
-If you want a stick bag to store everything, that's another $40-$120.
That's not even factoring in the instruments themselves.
-A decent snare drum can range between $500 and $1,000
-A set of timpani can cost $15,000
-A 5-octave rosewood marimba can sometimes cost $20,000
Oh, and then add miscellaneous instruments (some of which require clips, stands, beaters, or mallets in order to use,) plus the cost of the method books and sheet music.
Fortunately, most of the expensive items are provided in a college setting, but being a percussionist makes quite the dent in your wallet.

And it sounds even better than it looks.SycoMantis91 said:
My main (and newest) electric is a beauty [http://www.musicradar.com/gallery/news/guitars/fender-announces-elvis-costello-signature-jazzmaster-152812/1]. I think it's the most gorgeous guitar ever. I'm not even a big Costello fan, but I love Jazzmasters and loved the look of the guitar.
Yeah. An expensive hobby indeed.
All these are pretty much number one ( i spend around an equal amount on each one, roughly about £40-£60 each month) food, cigarettes, books, games and weed (judge me if you want i couldn't care less)
yeah, warhammer for me as well, though i only play 40k, which helps limit my expenditure somewhat, since i try to get the most useful units as opposed to the smexiest ones. unfortunately this works both ways, as batle-suits never really cost more than 150 points (and thats pimpin' it out with some expensive combo, like a plasma rifle and a missile pod), but they are sold in boxes of 1, with a gun drone, for 22.25 USD. i got some used ones for that much but they were quite broken, and missing bits, so difficult to outfit. but the point is i have spent over 120 dollars on battle-suits alone, and i only have 8 (4 with all the bits). and on top of that being a tau player means i need broadsides, xv9s, or hammerheads (35, 40, 50 bucks a piece), and i can fit 3, 3, and 2 in my army easily..... its expensive as fuck.Luke3184 said:
also, for those wondering
every unit in the game has a points cost, and games are fought at set numbers of points (to keep armies fairly balanced, unless they are badly put together or lack anti-something), 1500 points is the normal medium-sized two-hour game (or faster if you dont faff about ogling models and talking about preferred superpowers and their various applications).
a 150 point model is expensive, yet they are limited in your army (they take up scarce slots on the FOC[link]http://imageshack.us/f/62/focd.jpg/[/link]), tough (usually), and strong, and troops and hq choices (the mandatory in every army) can be dirt cheap if you want them to be, making it not too far-fetched to have half-a-dozen or more battle-suits in a Tau army
tau rely on battle-suits for anti-tank and anti-heavy-infantry or horde-control roles, so its very very common (almost mandatory even) to have at least 4 crisis suits in the army (the rank-and-file very-customizable battle-suit)

Video games and Magic Cards.
Outside of necessities, that's what most of my spending goes towards.

I rather joy a nice strip club myself. Something classy I mean, not those sleazy bars where their best customers come in during the work week wearing tank tops and sweat pants.Jadak said:
OT: Yea strippers and coke for me. As soon as I get my taxes back I'm going on a week long stripper and cocaine binge.
