Oh come on , you can't compare train toy and this

this is the real deal

I would not mind spending that too

If I had option of buying a toy train or feed the poor , I would select poor.
If I had option of buying usb miner that will never break even or feed the poor , I would select the poor.
If I had option of getting a boat or feeding the poor , WHERE IS MY BOAT ALREADY

Know the difference , not everything is a useless hobby , but some stuff are obviously useless. The guy who spend 4500 for going around the beach looking for gold was a bad hobby (I dont care if you enjoy it , you are not a smart cookie if you do that ) , the guy who bought a boat is awesome. You should be able to see the difference between these two.
Who are you to tell people what is useless?
What charities do you contribute to?
How many of your days off have you spent at the shelter this month?
How many Xbox games do you have?
How many block erupters do you have?
Im so tired of little shitheads telling people they are stupid because they dont agree on how other people spend there money. Why the hell are you in this thread if you dont have something to contribute? And for the record I would rather wipe my ass with my money than give it to the drug addicted strung out meth heads in my town who spend all there money on crank. But I do donate my time to the SPCA and other charities like The Unbroken Chain Foundation, Scaring the Children, The Bill Graham Foundation and SEVA. I have also spent a small foundation on live music and vacations what kinda ROI will I get there besides life experience happiness and great times?
Keep sitting behind you screen telling people that they are stupid it seems to be making you happy and I suppose that could be a hobby.
