Maybe $150 a year. I'm serious *** buying ***. Most the things I buy are computer related and I can write off as business expenses. And if that isn't the case then I don't buy it. I bought a 3ds and 3 games for it last year I guess. But that's the first time I've done that in years. I don't buy any music anymore. I stopped playing guitar. I stopped playing piano. I don't even have to maintain my car anymore outside of starting it up every month to make sure it doesn't turn into a PoS. Most my money goes to supporting people I care about or my medical expenses or paying off old debt and student loans. This year for example I spent $900 on christmas presents. I got maybe $200 in presents back. And you know what, I'd do it again in a heartbeat. I still smile at the memory of my nephews faces and big eyes at some of the stuff I got them.
1. didn't you have some severe medical issue?
2. I'm no mechanic, but I'm pretty sure you need to actually run your car and use it to keep it in decent condition, vs starting it once a month, aside from the fact that the alternator isn't supposed to be used as a dead battery charger.
