idoru99 0 #52 March 7, 2004 Last year nothing...but this year already over 6000 with AFF, ordering my rig and starting to buy things like my altimeter. I still need to get a main to go in the rig. <><><><><><><><><><><> The greatest risk you take in life is the risk you don't take. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
murrays 0 #53 March 7, 2004 How much did I spend? Not nearly enough. Although my wife says I waste money skydiving, I don't think I've never wasted a cent on jumping since I started 23 years ago.-- Murray "No tyranny is so irksome as petty tyranny: the officious demands of policemen, government clerks, and electromechanical gadgets." - Edward Abbey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

slug 1 #56 March 8, 2004 Got to put it in perspective some folks spend $15-20K/ year on drugs and they don't have a choice. Read about a lady who lost $975,000 gambling over a few years. Most of the money wasn't hers. After rehab first stop on the way home the casino Another $10k in the hole. If you got it, can borrow it, work for it, may as well spend it doing something "constructive" rather than destructive. R.I.P. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
