What hobby competes for your mod money (not including cars and motorcycles)

Just curious what people waste their hard earned money on besides CAI's and wheels. Here's a couple pics of my main hobby:

It's about 8 months old and finally starting to fill out.

I could post up my bicycles as well, but they're not as fun to photograph.

I read a lot, but used books off of Amazon Marketplace don't burn through the paychecks like my other hobby:

My other non-motorized hobbies include playing guitar, photography, video games (Wii, PS3, and many old systems including SNES and N64), and reading.





My most expensive hobby is building and running 1/32 slot cars (technically still motorized).






There is not really much more I want to do to my Camaro, so I'm cool with spending $ on the slot cars. Plus it's really fun.

Four kids (daughter's upcoming wedding) and five car loans (two are mine - Camaro and my 900 cc Kawasaki). Ya, I'm a biker chick too.. Ya only live once - I'm a firm believer of that. I'm going to spendd it cause I can't take it with me.

Photography (lenses are F N expensive!), Video games, Bass guitar, Videography and editing, Blu-rays, Watches (I'm a watch whore). Those are the major ones. I Used to play paintball but since I haven't dusted off my gear in a few years I guess it doesn't cut into the mod funds any more.

Thank you.


Kids don't count as hobbies lol.

v6sonoma- I'd like to get more into photography, but that expense is for another day I guess.
