I am probably too late to this... But here goes.
Every damn time I get into something, I over do it.
I spent $13k on my kitchen stove, this one keeps giving, but that is $13,000.00 USD! Just for my kitchen stove. My range hood because it is required with my high output stove was $3k, and then let's talk makeup air to replace what is taken out by it.
Or what about woodworking? Yep, I wanted to do it, and still do. I have a half completed work bench, and some basic tools... That will be about $2k...
Let's buy a boat! Yep 29 years old, runs great... Break out another thousand...
But most recently, Plex... You know, let's get rid of subscriptions... Yeah, this year alone I have put $900 or so into that. Yep I sure saved money on canceling Netflix!
To be fair, Plex/home theater stuff is so stinking fun tho.
That it is. What I really like is seeing 5 users or so all active at the same time... That makes it worth my $.
If it weren't for me being able to have friends use it, I am 99% certain my wife would kill me for spending so much on it.
