How much do you spend on other hobbies?

Gets very expensive when you get into custom cues, books, DVD's etc.. I'm a huge league player, tournament player & money gamer. Although my $10k is nothing compared to some guys I have met recently online with Cue collections creeping towards the $100K+ mark.

Vipers are good cues for what they cost. I used to play with one when I started but I have since moved to a Schon custom cue. The Viper is still in my case but it's been converted into a break cue (phenolic tip & ferrule).

Whats weird is I got my cue for free from Marblo cigs. It was one of there promotional items.

Lately all of my money is going to the accord. I spend a couple hundred a year on skateboarding stuffs. I run a website. Cost money to get started, but is evening out now. Some video games. Yeah, school, work, g/f takes up most of my time...

i spent maybe 3k on photography....but that enabled me to get my wedding photography done for free(my dad's friend is a retired wedding photographer and used my stuff)...and made a lil here/there money with it as well...i could even be in the black depending on how much you count wedding photography worth...which to me its worth alot...esp when my equipment blows away alot of local pros asking thousands...when they don't even have fast glass...much less digital cameras capable of getting 1000 pictures like i got....

I'd be curious to see a list of your equipment Dinz.

it's in the dslr owners' thread with pics.....its nothing crazy...but from looking at a couple local "wedding photographers", my stuff is way better...in other words i would have had to pay a lot more to find a wedding photographer that would have had the same level of stuff i got...

Yeah that makes sense. A lot of people call themselves professionals and really don't know/have/do much unfortunatley. Same goes for a lot of jobs haha
