I hate to disagree but some people get on just fine without a house!


Yes, they usually do just fine begging for change and sleeping under bridges. :p Or they're actually called Tuaregs and ride around on camels their entire life. :p

I once spent about $20 000 (current rates) on a pair of twin Holland & Holland classic shotguns. My mom nearly killed, and for 6 months afterwards I was so broke I couldn't even pay attention. Today they're worth about twice of what I paid for them, so nyah-nyah-nyah to all the naysayers. :p

Me: put simply.... No :D

I once paid €150 (300 Guilders) for a webcam. I used that overrated device about 5 times...

I think it must be my new wheels for my bike, the cost me 350 euro. All my friends said it was a waste of my money, because I had some (cheaper) wheels allready. But I'm happy with them now, they ride perfectly.
O and I paid 180 euro for my sunglasses :cool:

Hmm... Well, at a party back in October, I spent about $150 CDN buying drinks and rounds of tequila for my friend Jess. Though at the time, I probably shouldn't have done so (as I only had $300 in the bank), it was definatly worth it...

Oh, for the record, Jess has me on a permanent Tequila ban now :o And she enforces it strictly whenever we're in a bar together... :cool:

Now this is the post I've been waiting for - Ł570 for my bow seems to be a discount price compared to this :D :D :D

I'm really fascinated by Rob-hin's Legolas Daggers, they're really gorgeous. I'd be tempted by them, too, if I had any money left :D
