I could buy a nice house with cash for the amount of money I've put into the hobby over the last 20-some years. *sigh*

oh no!!

Don't tell me things like this.... or at least don't tell any members of my immediate family :)

In all seriousness however it is a wonderful hobby and I don't think I could be happier, unless of course I was successful every now and again

2 grand? That's pocket change in this hobby. Lol.

what you say is true.....

And this is more reasons to hate reefing :) Although I am sure I covered it.

I will spend endless amounts of money if I can every actually get what I want. It's the opposite end of a drug addiction. I'm not chasing that first high, I'm building paradise!

It's easier to swallow knowing you have a reef in your home and a piece of the ocean :biggrin:

Amen to that one Warren. I have come to the startling reality that anyone that is serious about the hobby has to come to terms with the fact that at some point (very early on) this is not a hobby, it's a bad investment, one that has fleeting moments of fist pumps and endless hours of beating our heads against the wall. Welcome to reefing. If it was easy everyone would do it. And if everyone is doing it I'm not interested. Chin up it does get better.....marginally.

Lol!!

Sometimes the truth realy does hurt.

But on the out her hand this is them only thing I've found that stops me from thinking of work . I can sit and play and pull my hair but I've finally found something that distracts me and gives me time to get centered every day.
