    Had to do a quick conversion search to make sure roughly how much that would be, and I could have a day like the fairly recent day I bought a pawn shop acoustic guitar, pack of picks, and a guitar stand maybe around 10 times.

    I could also, probably, head over to a CD shop I really like and buy probably close to 100 CDs ( probably much less than 90 because tax, but that’s still a lot ).

    I could go to an electronics shop and get their opinion and help on upgrading my desktop motherboard, alongside upgrading to a used, few years older ( probably 2020-21 because I don’t do much that would kill it ) model graphics card if I could find a good one somewhere like eBay.

    I could try to collect a physical copy of every single non-arcade, launched in America Sonic game on console. Console not included for some of them because they’re too expensive or I don’t care about them for the case of anything past xbox360 or ps3. Though, I imagine the Master System titles would be pretty expensive, so IDK how that would go.

    Either that, or I would love to cheap out and just pay some people who are willing to do a copyright infringement by making some Tails plushies based on his SatAM/Adventures cartoon design/personality. Would probably be a lot cheaper and just as cool. Fulfills my hobby of having a ton of plushies/stuffed animals and be Sonic related, so bonus points to me.

    I could wait for the next Steam sale and get tons of games to add to my backlog but never actually get around to. Even with my somewhat picky nature, I’m fairly certain I’d find tons of games to purchase.

    I could probably get even better headphones than my already pretty good quality beats to really up my music listening. Pair that with a pretty good audio playback device and I’d be in heaven… or accidentally make myself deaf and wanna die.

    I could get the remaining manga from the Bakuman series I like and, depending on price and volumes, probably get the remainders of Soul Eater ( I think I’ve only got maybe volumes 1-2 ).

    I could buy a metric ton of snacks and foods from a nearby import store and an Asian market.

    Hell, I could probably take a couple lessons for that guitar I bought so that way I can learn the proper way to play.

    You guys have stable hobbies…?
    If you count “starting new hobbies” as a hobby, then I could get like 4-5 hobbies out of it, around 200-250$ is a reasonable buy-in for a new one.

        A compound bow is a bit more expensive but not that much, and I also break a lot of arrows because of the kind of target we shoot at. In Dutch it’s called a “wip”, I don’t know what it is called in English. If you hit the metal part or the mast, your arrows tend to break quite easily.

          Oh ye, makes sense. I shoot at a foam target we hung between 2 trees because we dont like the things you shoot at, but i imagine arrows die quickly haha.
          Even we destroy each other’s arrows once in a while haha

    Surprised no one has mentioned: Audio

    I would either get two bookshelf speakers or a set of Hifiman Arya organics. Or a used lcd-x. Maybe a few guitar pedals. Or a new guitar. Or possibly a synthesizer.

    Like 4-5 years of ancestry resources access, or maybe like a short trip to my grandparent’s homeland to do my own research.

    Or I can buy like A LOT of thread and cross stitch material. A lot.
