Me, who spent more on a guitar than on the current car I am driving.
Worth it. Cars are an ongoing cost, and don't bring joy if you're not into them. I think you made the right choice, you chose joy.
That's a Triumph Rocket III.
Good eye!
It's because I have one in the garage right now. That three port header is unmistakable.
You know, I just reached my midlife and I swear this is true.
You can get on a motorcycle a lot cheaper than you might think, but it definitely helps to have some mechanical ability.
It's not worth it where I live. (Québec, Canada)
First of all, we have a national "auto insurance" where you can't sue someone in case of an accident. And the fees are paid through the license plate which is super expensive. And it's even more expensive for a motorcycle due to the risks. Regular insurance is also more expensive. So in the end it's not really worth it.
I've wanted a motorcycle for years, and occasionally start looking. Then I consider just how badly people drive around here, and that I'd likely end up as road sausage. But, getting older and closer to kicking the bucket anyway, so maybe just go ahead and enjoy some riding?
I've put enough friends in the ground to know that street riding is highly effective at combating old age.
I started Warhammer at age 30. Now I'm approaching 40 and looking at guns.
I just started on Warhammer novels and I am so glad that my eyesight doesn't allow me to partake in the money sinkhole that is Warhammer miniatures.
I was considering it in 2020 during the pandemic. Then a coworker showed me some of his figurines. Then more. Then his set. This his room. Then photos of his basement of terrain he's working on. Then he linked me to new sets he's buying. Then shared some resources to meet other people like him.
Yeah, imma enjoy this hobby from the sidelines without spending money.
Listen, you don't outgrow toys, they just get more expensive.
