<p>[QUOTE=&quot;geekpryde, post: 1505249, member: 36248&quot;]Concur with what others have said.&nbsp;&nbsp; Things will get better, you&#039;ll get back into the hobby, but maybe not for a few years.&nbsp; I had to stop collecting when I first had kids, got married, bought a house.&nbsp; &nbsp; Food and roof over your head, plus keeping the girlfriend/wife/etc happy SHOULD/MUST come first.&nbsp; &nbsp; Otherwise you will find yourself hungry, wet, and lonely.&nbsp;&nbsp; Dedicate a small fixed portion of your income to discretionary things, AFTER all your non-discretionary items are paid first.&nbsp;&nbsp; Maybe for a few month or years your discretionary budget is nill, or some tiny amount like $10.00 a month, but eventually if you take your budget into control, your discretionary money will increase.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Stay positive, post here, I like your threads (most of them&nbsp;&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie7" alt=":p" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />).&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; I know that just looking at other peoples coin pictures allows me to feed the addiction, without blowing any money.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Remember, it&#039;s not how much money you MAKE, but how much you KEEP.&nbsp;&nbsp; There are plenty of people who make $100,000+ a year, but if they spend $100,010 a year, they have a miserable life constantly scaping by.&nbsp; &nbsp; You want to model after the guy you makes $50,000 a year, but banks $10,000 of it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Good luck.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
