    Ive been paying them $3k every year due to me being single and a high bracket.

    Last year i asked my employer to take more money out of my paycheck.. broke even.. id rather get the $75 than have to pay them $3000

    I think that philosophy would make us all happier
    I should've said stereo. It is technically a radio, but it doesn't work because I'm lacking the antenna. Aside from the non functioning radio, I have a tape player out of my mom's Camry. It's really sad.

    Gee I wish I had that issue. Would be nice to say I could afford for my boss to not pay me my full paycheck!

    Yeah, I got my discount on the awning and awning room in December. Sometimes it doesn't work but you just gotta catch it at the right time.

    I am still waiting on one W2 :(

    Since I have 2 Glocks already I think my next pistol is going to be the new Beretta M9A3. Hopefully the SBR will be done in a week or so as well. The G26 is a sweet gun for sure. Still really want the G43

    I want too many toys. I told myself I have to buy a house before I get a sled or jet ski... haha! I still manage to spend a ton of money on the 4runner though...

    Changed my fuel filter yesterday. Not too bad of a job. I did it with a buddy we cut them both open, the Toyota filter had way more filter area than that of a Chevy 2500. No pic of the chevy filter though. It had maybe 1/3 the area in the same size housing.

    Ha ha, I don't really mind not having radio either, because the only stations I listen to are the two country stations and the classic rock station. And the music they play on the country stations lately is crap. Too poppy and hip-hoppy for me. That's why I'm in no rush. :thumbsup:
    I only have two big money-costing hobbies. Trucks and guns. But I generally do very good at keeping myself under control.

    Don't feel bad, right up until this, I'd never had a cd player either! Everything else I've ever had played tapes or had nothing. So we're in the same boat! :D

    Same here. I love classic hard rock/ heavy metal so I would never find a station I like anyways

    A buddy of mine has the Glock 43. He loves it! I wouldn't mind having one too, but I wanna get the G26 first.

    My brother just got the G26 for CCW...since he is in CA he can't get the G43. So far he really likes it.

    My best friend has one, and has let me mess around with it. It is a little hard for me to CC it, as I'm so little. (5' 1" and 85 pounds- can't hide anything!) But I know I can conceal it when wearing a jacket/hoodie. Next purchase will probably be a little Ruger .380, for the hot days. That way if all I'm wearing is a pair of swim trunks, I can still carry and nobody will know. Even I can slip that little bugger away and nobody can tell.

    Ah yes I have the same problem as you guys. Guns and other expensive hobbies.
    I love my g21, I don't go wheeling without it and ars are really expensive Lego sets.

    But I don't stop there. I have my dang dirtbike and jet ski. I recently sold the street bike but I already want another one.

    What kind of bike? I got rid of my Ducati in the fall. Sometimes I really miss it. Then other times I don't! haha

    It was a 2000 f4 cbr 600. Nothing special but I bought it not running for 800 put 300 into it. Used it for a year and sold it for 1800.

    Before it it had a 2005 cbr 600rr and I had a ktm 525 super Moto.
