If a backhoe counts as a vehicle then it would be a 3000lb screw compressor.

I don't like nice things.  I like kickass things.

I do have around 50k in music gear but that constitutes more than one item.

I went backpacking in Europe in 1996.  Haven't made it home yet so technically I'm still on vacation.

They accumulated over the years.

A PS2.

I paid around $250 when the slim version first came out. As a broke student, I had to spend all my savings to buy it.

No intent to change the subject .... but if you go by 'weight' .... A bag of popcorn at the local movie theater.

Otherwise it was some land in Tahoe.

In 2008


Very clever.
Much more worth today if you can speak of worth regarding paper money.
Plus it will keep some worth even when the $ will crash, which it will eventually.

Maybe my TV with 1,500€ ~5years ago

Looking at it now, home electronics prices have really come down.

Now I could get almost 20 more inches of TV with a sam price.
