I'd look cute with one of those.

I prefer this one below though. Only 9,500!!! A bargain!!! I'll have three please. It's Chanel!!! Why buy a car when you can have two bags!!!

The bags though Noel, the bags... have you seen the price? Pretty basic bags but because they have a designers name they cost thousands. 🤔 Its weird the girls fall for it.

Personally, I hold that amateur radio is one of the world's most expensive hobbies. Although I'm nearer the bottom of the totem pole myself, even my modest collection of hardware set me back nearly $40k over the last 40+ years.

what?

I did both, amateur radio AND private flying. you wouldn't have flown very far for only $1k/ per year. actually nowhere, considering the mandatory annual inspection alone costs $1k/year. plus hangar, registration, insurance, and we have not yet paid for a single gallon of fuel. own the plane, leave it in the hangar and just sit in it once in a while while reading the forums, that might be closer to amateur radio expenses. 😊

What about Yachting? 😁 Average price of a Yacht is 5.3 million. $4.7 million per year to operate and maintain. 😲 I guess you could rent it out for charters and plough some dosh back.
