So, what DON'T you spend money on?


OK, most of us have stereo systems that tally in the five-figure range -- more than many peoples' automobiles, inlcuding perhaps our own. ;-)

Last week in an attempt to self-justify recent hobby expenditures, I started drawing up a list of things that more "normal" people would own or spend money on, but which I choose not own. To wit, I am 34 and married and do not have a:

TV
Cable Bill
Blu-ray player
Ipod
Smart phone
PS3/Xbox/Wii
Car payment on my '03 Mazda
Child

.... How 'bout you?
cymbop
No fancy amp yet--sticking with McIntosh 6900 integrated and miniwatt tube. Cheap speakers. Haven't bought any music in years. Over 12000 tunes on ipod ripped from CD and vinyl collection. Spend most on awesome guitars.
No car, don't really need it in NYC area.
No cable or Blu-ray.
No expensive vacations.
Not much eating out.
No expensive drinks or cigars.
But I do buy designer clothing and good shoes on ebay from time to time;
And I do have some money for prostitutes.
After reading these answers I guess audiophiles are a pretty boring group. No wonder I don't have any audiophile friends.
I like nice clothes and have a car payment, student loans, a mortgage, cable, a new lady, and a stereo without a preamp. I got off track.
