What are some hobbies of yours that you spent WAY too much money

I spent a shitton in guns and dolls, I have no regrets.

I used to collect luxury watches some of these actually reached $5k a piece

I don't really regret it that much but I wished I stopped after 1 or 2 watches.

>>39463883
Guns and guitars/pedals.

I had no guidance during the first few years I was fresh out of high school. I was a stupid young adult working menial jobs and spending every penny on dumb shit. If I had saved most of that money, by this point in time I could have moved anywhere in the country I wanted to and started a new life somewhere. But no, I'm stuck in my brothers office room on a mattress with LITERALLY $25 to my name working week-by-week for the grandmother because I'm too miserable and depressed all the time to devote any energy to searching for a job that I won't end up just quitting.

I already sold all my guns and guitars ages ago, I own almost nothing now. Aside from my mattress and my desk I could literally move out in one trip, I wouldn't need to come back for extra shit because I don't have shit for belongings anymore.

I still like the hobby but when I first started I wasted hundreds of dollars on things I didn't end up using or need. If I could go back I would redirect that wasted money to more of the things I actually need and use.

I want to get into synth shit and regret it though, couple pedals and a good keyboard

>>39464198
Buy a used Arturia Microbrute if you want to get into synth. Maybe get a Behringer delay/reverb pedal for it too, you don't need anything special.

Miniature war gaming. I don't actually game with them because that would require social interaction but I assemble and paint them.

>>39464023
>Warhammer
>Magic:The Gathering
Those are the two biggest ones that make me cringe. Vidya is kinda fine because 99% of my games were on special but still a sink that should've been spent on better pursuits.

>>39464281
Heh my hobby money comes directly from gambling so it doesn't cut out of my actual money.

>people buy music that isn't vinyl, and that has very little worth as a whole, except for in the eyes of physical collectors who want entire collections or rare releases, but retards buy normal releases despite no objective or arguably subjective worth.
>people buy and paint figures which are expensive because of economies of scale, paint on plastic (and the funniest part is, they paint them THEMSELVES) which is entirely subjective worth with little usability.
>people buy figures, expensive because of economies of scale and sometimes (rarely) subjective worth and objective rarity, most will never sell for their base price.
>people buy paper with ink, literally monopoly at the simplest level even possible, putting ink on paper, not even hand drawn again dictated entirely by economies of scale and worse purposeful rarity.

You guys need to get some new hobbies that aren't massive fucking cash sinks for zero payoff.

Also, why the fuck does anyone buy any digital media, it's 2017.

Holy shit anon how the fuck does it even come to that? I took one look at that game and saw they were charging 40-60$ for ONE tank and noped into orbit. Why not buy a full triple A game instead or hell several other games for 20$ each instead. Sort yourself out mate.

That was years ago though and I very much regret it. Its a shitty game but past me is a retard and enjoyed it for some reason, but what an absolute waste of money.

I'm mostly off the f2p heroin these days, only spend 15$ on warframe around every month, that game is okay.

Honestly it really isn't. Compared to people thay have done it for years my painting is okay, not as bad as I've seen but not as good as the pros. I also use the amateur method of painting by using washes instead of the more traditional layering method.

I spend all my NEETbux on fucking clothes, i am so sick of it, two maybe three outfits should be enough but I can't stop.

Yugioh. It's kicked in twice since getting into it as a kid. Without checking all my transactions, I'd say I've spent hundreds on it, probably closer to a thousand on it over my whole time.
I had fun for a while, wasn't bad. Not an incredible amount of money, but it's sure a lot for some little cards, virtual and real.

Like the other wargaming anon, I've bought a shit-load of models. Been playing on and off for 10 years now, both warhammer 40k and fantasy (both versions).

I don't regret the hobby at all but naturally I've bought a lot of shit I ended up never using.

Kinda same but not as much. It's happening again with World of Warships which is a pretty good game however a lot of the playerbase are retards

drugs, clothes, rent, pc parts

Pokemon cards and beanie babies.

Taught me a valuable lesson. NEVER collect shit.

>>39467289
that was another gay joke at your expense
seriously, though, no not everyone does. my only jacket that I own and wear nearly every day (well when it's cold, I suppose) is ripped at both elbows and has a massive rip down the back, making me have to remove the stuffing.
I still wear it. Go to the shops in it. Wherever. I don't give a fuck.

>>39463918
Why's that? Just curious. Do you feel instant regret the moment you cum?

I've been there. It's a truly terrible feeling crashing from the peak of sex to suddenly regretting a major series of decisions you've made.

>>39467317
I'm not getting into world of warships, its laaaaaaaaame
In fact most videogames are lame
I gave up pvp videogaming as a whole, its frustrating and not fun at all

Wrestling figures. I don't give a shit about modern wrestling anymore and seemed to just be buying out of habit. I sold a lot off and am gonna sell off the rest soon. The one's I know that are practically worthless are going to Goodwill. Only keeping the 90's guys.

I spent 12 grand on a car soundsystem that rattles the car to ruins with a twist of the volume knob.

Thats a whole years welfare, Shieeet.

Dominoes. I bought like $150 worth of dominoes when I was a kid, I even bought professional weighted dominoes

Doujinshi

I stopped but I always have an itch to get back into it.

I probably own about $10,000 to $15,000 of retro video games. This includes stuff like mint condition Suikoden II, Panzer Dragoon Saga, etc. On the positive side, I actually bought all that shit decades ago when it came out. Still, I spent a fortune on games over the years. Don't regret it.

I've also probably spent about $5,000 on running and fitness supplies. I'm a competitive marathon runner as a hobby.

I've also vaporized weed (legal in my state) almost every day for the last 14 years straight. I'm also a recovered drug addict (I only smoke weed; don't even drink). I have no idea how much money I wasted on drugs when I was addicted. It was probably a lot.

>>39467414

>>39467429
I also own $3,000 of Etherium. I have a $2,300 treadmill, and three $300 keyboards (work, home office, and gaming computers).

>>39467376
I agree on the frustrating part. I mainly play it to escape my reality and feel like I'm doing something worthwhile but more often than not I'm reminded of how much a loser I am when I do shit and die first. It's not too good for the 'ol mental health

I like the historical aspect of both games though as they've taught me quite a bit

>>39467445
Most of them have been scanned and uploaded to sad panda or ignored because they turned out to be not very good.

Though, I think there are some left that I scanned but haven't uploaded yet.

I really love doujin culture, but there's just way too much out there for me to collect, so I end up in an obsessive state and then get depressed when I realize that there are tens of thousands of doujin that will never ever be scanned/archived.

I regret quite a few of my individual vidya purchases, but all in all it provides a lot of entertainment per dollar and I'm fine with it. I regret a lot of my carnivorous plant purchases too, I like the hobby but I made dumb decisions buying shit I'd have to replace anyways because I didn't have enough money to get something better. Also ended up giving away about 100 dollars worth of plants because they were getting too big for the terrarium and I had no money for a bigger one and didn't know grow tents existed.

Used to have a 2.0d E46 that I sunk a bit of money into but the engine got wrote off and it would have cost me 3000britishbings to get it repaired. I ended up selling it because I didn't have the money and it wasn't worth it in my eyes. Still miss that car though.

>>39467483
Yeah I loved the part of history where tanks have hitpoints :p

Joking of course
But yeah, there are times where you have ace round after ace round and you're on top of the world but more often than not you get screwed by RNG or placement. I'd rather a steady stream of funs from a pve game than such deep deep downs in that kinda pvp.
Especially when it ruins your WN8. Mine was 2000 and any time I wasn't able to keep up to standard I wanted to kill myself

I blew a shitload of monies on vinyls, but I can't really say I regret it. My collection is probably worth much more than it cost me to build it, and it keeps going up (90% are first presses). If I had to sell it, according to discogs I'd easily make like a 1000 bucks.

Too bad I'm autistic and I'd rather sell my mother than selling any of them shiny LPs

That's what the majority of the money has been. The engine overheated because it had a bad thermostat when I got it, and the head warped. I ended up spending almost 2k on having a new one installed.

Wew. My transmission is a piece of shit so I'm going to replace it and get a better engine in one go. Won't cost me more than a grand

>>39467552
I've spent well over $500 on vinyl, but I'd have never gotten into it if my partners didn't give me theirs to start.
I have a pretty big collection with some pretty rare releases.

My favorite is my copy of Unknown Pleasures because it's on white vinyl and they put the labels on the wrong side.

>>39467486
>>get depressed when I realize that there are tens of thousands of doujin that will never ever be scanned/archived.
I feel these feels when thinking about old internet models and stuff like that. All sets were available somewhere at the beginning but now have faded into history and cannot be found at all. An old torrent site I went to suffered the same sort of fate, it had loads of torrents for british tv shows but now that the site is gone almost none of the stuff can be found now. It's either scraps or nothing. It's depressing as hell and mostly the reason I'm paranoid about back-ups now

>>39467547
There's fuckloads of tank projects I didn't know about prior to WoT and it's the same with ships, I'm learning quite a bit and getting into it some. I'm not really concerned about stats, If I can do a decent amount of damage to the enemy then I'm happy. The stats are just interesting to see how many I've sunk, ect. And yes, RNG can be a cunt at the best of times

>>39467598
For mine it was a small piece of metal flying down the induction and playing pinball with the pistons. It made almost off of them look like the surface of the moon and the cylinder head was damaged a little.

>>39467637
I do most things myself. I swapped the transmission of my past E30 from auto to manual.
I just didn't trust myself to change the engine because I didn't feel ready for the big of a job. I know the guys who run a local euro shop so I thought I'd give them my business.

Videogames that I'll probably never play.

Lots of second hand consoles, most notably the PS3. It's like I have bad luck with Sony products in general. One got stolen, one I sold it (and regret it), the others went belly up (mostly launch FAT models, but even a Slim version did). Their hardware, in all honestly, sucks.

Whiskies. Some of the expensive stuff is great, but others not as palatable as I expected. Other spirits such as gin, rum and vodka are way more enjoyable.

I had an obsession with mechanical pocket watches. Bought a lot tof junk that, malfunctioned or didn't work properly, even after taking them to a professional watchmaker. I end up keeping only one, it works flawlessly because it's a modern piece (and it wasn't even an expensive one). I use it from time to time because I don't like wristwatches, and not always want to have my cellphone around with me.

And this one is more about wasted time than money, and that is, spending way too much time with someone I believed to be my friend. I didn't have friends until 5 years ago. I don't regret meeting him and the others, but rather to my rush of making up for all the years of no friendship, instead of being more careful.

Guns. No regrets in owning guns in itself, but I woundn't mind go back in time and spend more time and money on guns rather than most of, if not all, the junk mentioned above.

Do you dust out your consoles at least once a year? It also doesn't hurt to unscrew the case for a cleaning every 3-4 years.

I know Sony's hardware isn't the best, but you need to do some basic maintenance.

sitting around buying worthless trinkets is not a hobby.
playing an instrument, modeling, painting, and even baking are hobbies. The key is that you actually are trying to improve or refine a specific skill or actually create something.

You people dont have any hobbies.


Just addictions or interests you blindly throw tons of money into

It's not a hobby but most of my money goes to cocaine and weed at this point.

>>39467715
I know and I do clean and maintain my hardware pieces regularly. Maybe their previous owners weren't so careful. But all in all when it comes to Sony consoles, I believe it really is a lottery.
As an example, one of my friends still has a PS3 Slim from 2009, never opened it to properly clean it, thus it still has the rather crummy factory thermal compound, yet it has hundreds of hours of gaming in it, it's well worn , yet it never overheated or gave real problems and still works flawlessly to this day. He got a good one. On the other hand, he used to own a Sony Xperia Play cellphone that died pretty quickly on him.

I spent $10,000 in 2 years buying things for a Israeli camgirls amazon wish list. It was mostly books and normie shit like make up stuff etc, but every now and again she would ask for some Jewish stuff like books about Judaism. I spent so much money on her that she even gave me her personal address so I could make her aware when I ordered something.
In the end I got too carried away and started sending her flags of Arabic countries along with Uranium Ore and started sending her long rants about how we could build a nuclear device and then have sex on top of it. it was meant to be romantic but she got pissed I guess and stopped talking to me.
