[QUOTE="aestus, post: 1571373, member: 2989"] I'm fairly fortunate in that I am well off in my line of work. I'm not married, don't have any bills except for my house and utilities and at anytime, I can pickup a freelance project and make an extra 5-10k on the side. I try to limit my spending on firearms by selling one off or trading just by principle. Most of my money usually goes back to various investments and funding different ideas I have or to the okcCoCo. I don't have cable anymore and only pay for Netflix. Don't have a telephone line, since I use my cellphone for everything. About the only major expenses I have are updating all my Adobe software every two years along with a new macbook pro every 3 years. My favorite game I like to play is to see how far up I can trade up starting with little to nothing. It's kind of like the paperclip to house story where a kid started with a paperclip and kept trading up until he got a house a year later. I'll see if I can find that new story and link it here if I find it. Anyways, I played a similar game where I started with a $25 RG .22LR revolver that was utter crap and made a bunch of deals in between by either trading up and selling guns until I ended with a S&W BG .38 special that my Dad ended up claiming as his Birthday Present last year, rofl. I did a similar thing this year, where I started with a $100 treadmill and eventually ended up with a Beretta 92FS Centurion, which I recently traded for a Yugo m70ab2 AK rifle. [/QUOTE]
