Due to leaving the life of the 19th century gentleman-scholar (i.e heavily in debt all the time), I tend to discipline my miniatures gaming purchases. The expensive stuff for me is rules and uniform books, since I like the less well known wars and that means Helion.

But I am pretty sure if I add up all the money I have spend in 15 years of gaming I am going to feel awfully quilty considering my debts :p so no. Let me think its just a harmless and cheap hobby! :p

wow that a lot but to be fair others spend a lot on other stuff throughout the years. im sure ive spent a lot on video games and about 500 on board games and war gaming.

Well, with what i spent in wargaming since my teenage, i probably could have financed a cure for cancer.

Likewise - it is 50 years of wargaming now.

I'm afraid I once worked out how much Mrs T and I spent on ciggies and cat food and vets' bills over the decades...... (I think I worked this out over 20 years ago.)

It was truly horrifying !

Neither of us have smoked for 25 years or more...(Couldn't remotely afford to now !).....And the last of the cats 'went' more than a year ago.

I DO NOT want to try and work out how much we've spent on the gee-gees, over nearly 40 years......I'd cry. 
Mind you.....If we hadn't spent it one those 'items'.....We'd have spent it on something else, I'm sure.

Can't take it with you Phil.

Very true, Andy. 

(But think of all those extra CDs I could have bought.  )

Got any Taj Mahal CDs?

No, Will.

For some reason I never liked his stuff, back then.
(Never know...might enjoy it now.)
