    It would have to be that blue thing in my ticker..Trans Am........ Totally inappropriate gas guzzling Fast Car. I bought it to drive back and forth to work, so my wife can keep the mini van at home for her and the kids. HEY this one has a back seat the next one probably will not!!

    My home and my masters degree. I will be paying for both for a loooooong time, but in the long run those are probably the two most valuable things I could have ever purchased for myself!
  • Laser hair removal :) Worth every penny!

    A holiday to St Lucia last year - my oldest friend was getting married there and I was NOT missing it. Was fabulous, but I paid a shedload as I'm single (happily) and got stung by that. Don't regret it all. Sun, sea, sand and endless cocktails. Bliss. Oh and I was a bridesmaid in a great dress. :happy:

    A master of science. Cost about $70.000 until I buy a house there's no way I'm going over. But hey, I bought myself a lot of knowledge and an entrance to a good career that makes me love going to work most days.

    None investment wise it would have to be my holiday to Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panama for a month for about $3000 total.

    if you dont count joint purchases (like a new camera once kids come along or a house or things for a wedding - like the rings or dress), then i'd have to say my bicycle :-)

    Excluding cars - it would have to be my 'bad-luck' ring - I called it that because the price was $666 and change. Beautiful two-carat rhodolite garnet, specialty cut, heavy gold band. Had to sell it while unemployed a few years ago - the piker only gave me 50 bucks for it. :grumble:

    the most recent expensive purchase was my Trek road bike, but before that would be my car.
