Who else here is frugal?

wolfie62,

It does not seem you are frugal at all. Housing so many items is luxury at its best.

@audiozen.... *S*  Thank You.  I do try to be straightforward and honest in my own 'bent' sort of way. ;)  And I appreciate your comments on 'sounding like we're in similar places'....

Except my 'day job' is spending other people's $ on making 'things' for their children, grandkids...and those of total strangers that I will never meet.  Some are moved to F'book us to tell us that what we do creates smiles and enjoyment for both their kids and them.

THAT...makes my RT work the best employment I've ever had and likely will. *VBS*

Night 'work' is 'recoup' time, and spending some on my 'take' on audio and the pursuit of 'that which intrigues'.  It's very '180 out' on the daytime activities, but both require a 'stretch' that helps to keep the wetware from becoming cold oatmeal.... ;)

I'm 'frugal' in the sense of putting $'s where I can 'follow my muse', entertain a notion, and/or just improve on what's caught my curiosity for the past decade (or 2, at this point...).  It's an obscure corner of 'audioism', to be sure....

But...it keeps me out of bars, and only gets me in trouble with the spouse periodically. *L*

And I get to 'chat up' with y'all at times. *S*

...and sometimes Just Watch as the periodic 'Topic That Should Not Be Brought Up' heads off into 'Multi-Page Heights' without a road map....*L*

Now...That's Entertainment! *LOL* ;)

Hi mahgister, do you mind if I ask in what country you reside?  I believe you mentioned it once but cannot remember.

Thanks,

I bought a 1986 Ferrari Mondial for $32k and it served as my daily driver for two years and 15,000 miles and never towed in. I had it towed to my local wrench for a clutch rebuild.  

He had never touched a Ferrari before and had himself a blast!  He replaced the CV joints as well. 

That is one frugal way to get a genuine Ferrari experience!   I took it to a speed only 1/2 mile drag where Lambos were over 200mph and got lots of attention. 

Only got 115 mph but learned the 8,000 rpm engine is for theatrics only and to keep mecanics employed rebuilding clutches!  My best run was shifting at 6,000 rpm.  I always wondered how an 8,000rpm engine could lug up my mountain in third gear.
