What’s the dumbest thing you EVER bought....besides the diamond ring for your ex, we all hate her too.

[D̷e̷v̷i̷l̷D̷o̷c̷A̷Z̷]

Let’s kill

Was going through some old boxes today. Found all kinds of silly shit from my youth.

While digging through I found a perfect set of fishing lures. I bought them when I was 15. Cost me a lot of money back then, literally never used them.

Oh and I had a HD-DVD player.

 

[Bender]

I bought my Ex a house.



Just kidding, I don’t have an ex.




I killed her.

 

[powdahound76]

Smart move.

Big savings.

Especially if they have 500k in life insurance.....

Now we know how you have that fancy boat! ?

 

[forrestgump01]

I'm gonna assume the irony is she's under the house you bought her ?

 

[Jscb1b]

I bought my ex-wife 5 cars to my 1 truck. I should have called Bender for help.

 

[abn31c]

A 12 hour block of Playboy channel, should sell that by the minute.

 

[forrestgump01]

Smart move.

unless your Scott Peterson and don't know when to quit while your ahead!

[GUN NUT in IA]

This, but it was worth it after 10yrs of her dealing with my shit. Not a diamond ring so it counts? My The guns I bought, but she owns are still are worth more and she is ok with that.

[Molina336]

Man my list would be real long!

 

[f>b25]

Does it count if returned for a refund?

 

[waveslayer]

Paid alimony to a multimillionaire ex wife. Thanks California!

 

[Slab74]

A charcoal booze filter. Anyone remember those?

 

[earthtrekker1775]

My first house, bought it in 2007.

 

[broncoaz]

I went full retard into the Minidisk audio format about a year before MP3 players went big. $500 for a home player, $500 for the in car changer, $700 for the Clarion MD deck for my other car, and probably 100 disks at $3 each. I guess most of my high end car audio purchases in my 20’s were dumb, but minidisk certainly takes the cake.

There are plenty of other things I’ve bought that ended up being dumb. I have an extensive collection of CD music (400+) and a significant collection of DVD movies (100+), I used to keep multiple saltwater reef aquariums, I have a bunch of tools that weren’t all that, any home exercise equipment ever purchased, etc. Fast food daily, restaurant frequently, and daily trips to Starbucks for probably 2004-2015 likely cost me tens of thousands of dollars when I was already deep in debt.

I wish I’d found Dave Ramsey in high school instead of in my 30’s.

 

[jcam]

My first house in 2005. Absolutely stupid decision!

 

[Reverie Ranges]

Wish I had put the money into Full-Autos instead of cigarettes in the early 90's, I'd be a lot better off today...

 

[Maser]

Funny this thread should pop up because I'm doing a bit of pre-Spring cleaning and I found a handheld sewing machine that I honestly don't remember if I bought it or chose it as a free gift.

 

[Steel+Killer]

A 224 Valkyrie upper, loading dies, factory ammo, and everything else associated with that POS round.

Oh and an engagement ring for my ex that I learned she sold right after we broke up and used the money partying with her friends until it was all gone.

why the 224? Didn’t work out I assume?

 

[powdahound76]

He went to PSA.....

 

[Steel+Killer]

Fuck that round they sold it as a round that you were supposed to get these phenomenal results 1/2 MOA with factory ammo It was supposed to be the best thing since sliced bread but it turned out to be anything but.

 

[Steel+Killer]

By the way I have this really great 224 Valkyrie upper for sale any takers… LOL

 

[Threadcutter308]

I bought my Ex a house.

[ofelas]

Thank your lucky stars it wasn’t an AAR you lost.

2003 Mitsubishi Evo 8 and/or 2006 Evo 9 bought as daily drivers, between a full set of brakes and tires every 8-10 months and (full synthetic) oil changes every 3000 miles, didn't have a spare dime to my name.

I bought my Ex a house.

Is she buried in the Red Desert? Like half of Rock Springs

 

[BytorJr]

I'd have to go with my house. Hate the place, but at the time my family (1st cousins) were suing my ass and the freaking landlord was going to sell it out from under me. Couldn't find another house in 3 weeks so I just sucked it up...still cheaper than renting.

Followed maybe by my second VW - I hate FWD and it's not been a great car...too many big failures like the ABS unit, High Pressure HVAC hose, intake manifolds (4x), Headliner at 51K and 5 years old (of which 1 year was in storage).

 

[Threadcutter308]

Still have the house, I suppose (?). How much land you got ? Any Skeletons ?

The drug does start wearing off when you get to be my age......

 

[Threadcutter308]

A "Drill Doctor".......

Wut a POS.

 

[sirhrmechanic]

Two crates of 10-per-crate POS Norinco folder AK's in fall 1988.... for @ $100 each. $2,000 was all the money in the world for me then.

Two years later, paid for my first house.

Stupid move said everyone.

Yup. Stupid.

Price gouger! Your on ignore now...

Oh, and I bought a gun years ago. If I had all of the money that I’ve turned into smoke and noise, buried into berms behind target racks, and left on range floors... Well I wouldnt be hanging with the likes of y’all...

I still have one.

Wish I still had the crates.

They are probably worth as much as one of the guns.

[Cheyenne Bodie]

Axe FX 2 Ultra. It's basically a high end digital guitar amp. Being a die hard tube amp guy it never lived up to the hype for me, didn't even come close. Should have gotten a Friedman BE-100 or Rev E Dual Rec.

 

[oneshot86]

never hind sight yourself and never come clean
even w pictures

Popeil pocket fisherman. It looked so cool on TV. I did catch a bunch of crappies with it, appropriately enough.

I bought my Ex a house.

I killed her.

What kind of pigeon was she?

 

[TheGerman]

My first house, bought it in 2007.

This. Mine I think might have been 2006 but there abouts.

Was after the first big house correction where the pricies went way down and everyone figured that was that and everything was 'on sale'.

Then it went down a year later, again. ontop of everyone being unemployed.

Ended up renting it out and made a little money on it. Then sat on it until 2019 when the Florida market was hot again and unloaded it.

I went from liking that house to literally wanting a hurricane to just blow it over.

For a second I thought you were talking about body spray. The entire town of Fayetteville smelled like that stuff in the 1990’s. Or was it Paco Rabone?

[Jgunner]

1991 gmc syclone. Blew up 2 v6’s in it and stuffed a hot v8 in it, but have struggled to want to work on it for years. Just a fucking money pit. But if i put it together i might get 75% of what i put into it.

 

[RTH1800]

I would say some very expensive hunts or auction permits that I realized within hours of arriving were worthless. Then I wasted a few days going through the motions trying to not be rude until I could think of an excuse to leave.
