I think cigarettes here are about $8 to $10....so a pack a day = about $3500 year, plus they will KILL you!!! An added bonus!! ..gha

Different people see money and use it in different ways. Money means different things to everyone. It could be going on a vacation or spending the same amount on a watch. Someone here was asking about that a few months ago...a work reward...they got a choice between a trip or watch. They got votes from both sides. Clothes, jewelry, trips, smokes, wine...the list goes on. I like them all and use moderation so I can enjoy everything...A nice trip to Europe, great wine, hang on the beach with my TT Sub. It is all about priority...

People were talking about many types of watches, also, so I posted this picture up. Below is a comment made:

that has to be one of the worst collection of watches and taste that i have layed my eyes on... i would rather wear a digital timex than any of those eyesores. it just goes to show that money DOES NOT buy style.
I'll admit, they aren't the best things in the world, but damn, that was kinda harsh...

Perhaps this guy could just say he does'nt like your collection? Hell why would anyone even think that their opinion would matter to you the owner? It's your collection and you love it... period!

Everyone seems to have an opinion, and each to his own. I wear my Rolex for me, and only the ignorant have the balls to ask how much I paid for it. I say they should keep their negative opinions to themselves...
