Hey everyone

 

I was just going over my credit card statement for the last 30 days and to my shock I had €244 on add-ons. In 30 days alone! I didn’t even think I got that many new additions Aerosoft EDDL, Fly Tapa Dubai, Flight1 Super 80 to name a few.

 

I’m afraid to look at previous months in case it turns me off playing FSX

 

In the next few months we will hopefully have our much anticipated PMDG 777, Aerosoft A320 Extended, Orbx UK, and perhaps ( but I doubt it ) FSlabs Airbus. There is no end to the spending in sight

 

Is this normal? Do you set a limit? Should I cancel PAYPAL because it’s far too easy to pay ( Sure it’s not real money :rolleyes: )

 

Not even really sure if I am looking for advice, just hope that some of you guys will tell me that you’re in the same situation we are all flight sim junkies and its ok

Thanks

 

Not sure if this is in the proper forum. Mods please move if this is in the wrong place

Ha, know the feeling! PayPal is true evil.

 

So are Apple. Their store app is too easy to commit to buy. The other week I was walking along and bought a mini ipad! Then out of curiosity tried ordering a $5000 macpro. Yep, could've!

Ahhh yes Stephen.... Know your condition well... You are one of us now.... "you can check out anytime you want... but you can never leave..."

 

Luckily, from the looks of your PC you will be ok in that department... Enjoy them all as we do.....

Haha. my rule is if its over €1000 there is no way im buying it online and waiting, id want it right there and then ^_^

FSX is the reason I now control my families finances. There is too much risk involved with letting the wife have access to on demand bank statements.

 

Thankfully, my bank loves to save paper, and it is a eStatement sent to my e-mail alone.

 

You have friends here. We have no 12 step program, and even if we did.....we would just "tweak" it until it worked for us. Lol.

I know a lot of people that can spend well over €244 in a pub every month......so I wouldn't worry about it, it is just an 'entertainment' expense :lol:

I totally understand you, there just were too many good new releases and some great sales, too. I probably spent a similar amount of money on FSX in the past few weeks.

Have to admit that was pretty hilarious. :LMAO: But also so true...

 

Thanks William

I went add-on crazy over a period of about a week, spent over $120. There's just so much to choose from. I sometimes think that I am funding Carenado's development efforts! I am glad they are in a lull when it comes to new aircraft releases.

Well mate, you're better off spending it on FSX than beer and smokes - unless you're doing that as well ;-)

Nope quit that too, 10 months ago, thank God

 

Probably why im spending so much time on FSX, now that you mention it... ^_^
