I'm curious: what was the most recent "expensive" item you've purchased? I'm talking real life, not Eve. Also, you can use your own definition of "expensive".
What did you buy?
How long ago did you buy it?
How much did it cost?
I'll start off with my five string acoustic fiddle. I bought it about six months ago from a friend of mine. I spent $200. |

My damn puter, I spent 1100$ on getting a new one as I recently discovered, to my chagrin, PTY with its high incidence of natural EMP like phenomena due to storms plus high humidity tends to FRY or shortcircuit due to moisture condensation and raw acts of god anything remotely electronic that HEATS UP.
As a sidenote I discovered people prone to seizures should avoid places like PTY as it tends to worsen their conditions, unfortunately, so far, I havent been able to find any HARD DATA on this stance.

According to some steam calculator, i spent around 3.2k on games. But that does not include discounts i actively take advantage of :-)
I spent like 1.2k on my computer like five years ago, amd still runs like a champ when upgrading! Still have 2-3 more years of care until retiring it!
Next up, about 3k for the upcoming fanfest! Though it may be toug, but i am saving. Didnt buy skyrim, or bf3... Might not buy any new ones until after fanfest. Not even ME3. Thats how much I love you CCP and eve players! |

What did you buy? My degrees.
How long ago did you buy it? Oh,... years ago.
How much did it cost? Blood, sweat, tears, and treasure.
It's about freedom.

I would beg to disagree.
Very recently upgraded myself, bill seems to pile up noticeably higher//faster than before the upgrade.
And after you eventually//probably add the "kids" option, you're financially screwed for sure.

94/95 Kawasaki ninja ZX11. Cost me around US$ 9500,00 . Some three months ago.
Ps.: I live in Brasil, so it's not too much money for a 16 years old bike. I know that I could buy almost a new ninja 1000 in the USA. |
