Its scary when there are quite a few of us in the 10K to 50K range.
Shows how nuts we are, according to my wife
.
Those few that are in the 50k plus bracket must have lost the plot
.
When I add up my observatory, scopes, computers, cameras, TV eyepieces, and everything in between to be able to see/image small bits of light, I am crazy,
but,
I could be blowing it at the pub/casino/horse racing like a few friends do, and my wife is all for it as it makes for a nice family activity that the kids love been involved in.
A mate was over the other day looking at my new observatory and started saying I am nuts for spending large money on this hobby and he could not see the point in it, but when I said to him you blew over 50K on a fishing boat and gear that sits in your yard at least 350 days a year gathering dust, he soon shut up
