Good for you guys. Mass props! I'm proud of the job I do, and love it dearly, but hell, I've still got 38,000$ in student loan debt and don't make half of what some of you make ha ha ha ha ha.

I just want to give all of you a thumbs up to those who have "made it." Granted, my wife and I don't live "bad" and we also have a $200k house which in my area consists of 4 bedrooms, 4 baths, and a decent amount a property, but danggggggg would it be nice to buy a watch like some of you, just because it feels right.

Paid off two cars 09 WRX, and 14 GMC Terrain, but wow.....

Once again, not complaining. Just complementing those of you "who can."

Keep the watch pictures coming. I'm very impressed and actually enjoy being apart of such a diverse forum.

At only one point in my life maybe about 4 years ago at age 38 have I been physically strong enough and light enough to make the lowest Marine corps standard for pull ups. So as you're looking at folks with crazy watch collections, mine would probably qualify, I'm looking at folks like you and wishing I could have done some of the things you've done.

I'd also love to have a German shepherd, but of course I'm at work all the time and in order for me to get one now I'd have to pay someone to take care of it all day. It would end up being their dog.

There are a lot of trade offs in life and personally I think you're doing amazing!
