Most money you've spent on a single product?

My most expensive purchase would have to be the website I bought about two years ago, costing me 55,545.11 USD. I didn't have as much money back then so it left me pretty broke (less than 3,000 USD left if I recall correctly) and my parents were pretty disappointed at me. Which doesn't really make sense considering that it was my money, but still.

Here's the "recite".

What's yours?

Re: Most money you've spent on a single product?

LoL, do you know how many hookers you could have paid for with $55K? No wonder your parents were upset.

Stupid

What website did you buy? Was it worth it in retrospect?

Probably tuition. Bleh

The most money I ever spent on a single thing was probably my computer for around 500 Euro or my TV for around that. Or perhaps if it counts a vacation which may have been up to 1000.

Also, Astner, how did you get 55 000 USD to spend?

Probably my car

A car, which I recently sold.

I pretty much bought a domain address, that's it. As for its estimated worth, it's was auctioned for 70,000 USD but the I contacted the winner a few months later and told him that I was interested in it.

my current laptop is the most expensive thing ive bought

Mostly birthday- and Christmas presents. Also since my grandparents retired and I've started studying they've deposited around 2,000 - 3,000 USD each month, my parents also contribute from time to time so that I have something to live on and on top of that I receive scholarships.

Tell you parents and grandparents that I said they should cut you off completely. Paying your own way through school and life will be the only way you'll learn to appreciate the value of money, as it's easy to piss away cash when you've done nothing for it.

Trust me, it will be for the best.

I receive enough money to pay for school, food and clothes through scholarships. I don't really need help economically, but once in a while I'd like to relax and have fun. I'd never have managed to pay for me and my ex-girlfriend's trip to Malaysia last summer if I wasn't helped out economically and my family understands that.

What domain did you buy? And still that's a pretty good amount of money for a (how old are you? 22?) year old, I don't think I got presents and money for birthdays and christmases worth nearly that amount in my life. Are your family rather rich?

Do you still own the domain? Why did you buy it? Investment? Going to do something with it?

You're going to grow up to be an *******. Sad, really.

Other than my cars, my house, and my daughter?

Hell, I don't even know.

In my experience it's just as easy to piss cash that you've earned away. I've been working for my money since I was 15 (three evenings a week at a supermarket, but still), worked throughout college, and I still spend my money on all kinds of useless shit.

But you appreciate the value of those hookers and heroine.

I said useless shit, and yes, I do.
