I'm starting a support group for those of us that dedicate too much of our monthly budgets to this hobby. (/S)
I'll start us off: Hi my name is rdriggett and I overstretched myself at Coral Farmers Market yesterday. Anyone else? @Apon gave me the idea for this joke thread.
i had scouters who were looking for some high end sps for me. they reported back that i had all of them already. i guess i am far from being helped at this point.
You are supposed to say...."my name is .......... and I have a coral addiction." Admitting you have a problem is step 1. Then we need to find a sponsor to help you........ "buy more coral.
I like to say I'm a recovering addict. All my hobby expenses are tracked on our family financials (finance & accounting profession, i can't help it!) and I like to show my wife that for the first time in a decade, my trailing 12 month hobby expense is negative from selling off a bunch of equipment and corals .
But really I'm just pausing everything until after an upcoming move....then it's time for an ever bigger tank project
