I'm not going to spend any more money on audio because I don't need to. But what will I spend my money on next?

Are there any hobbies where you can keep on going for years? I'm not going to do any hobbies with engines because then there will be problems in the future. Any recommendations?

I play billiards. But it is boring, last season I won 30% of all tournaments I entered. I like to lose more than win. In the last tournament I left before the final and they wondered why.
If I don't have a hobby to spend the money on, there would be no point in winning anymore. Another season just started and there's no reason to play tournaments.

Or unprofessionally even?

Yeah, where do you get your money Patrick?

Anyway, how about radio controlled helicopters? Bigger electric ones, I mean. You can have years of expensive fun there.

Or maybe take up pistol shooting?

AH so your a pool shark! That's a handy skill. Do you have any other source of money?

In my last dream I dreamt about pistol shooting but couldn't hit the target. Then I was in a forest on top of the trees jumping from one tree to another, then I found myself in a basketball court but couldn't hit the basket.

Once my opponent got mad and broke his stick in the final.

I want to do something that everyone benefits from.

i say get into making Films.. less infront of the camera work and more behind the camera. hire people to um..act you know? think about it cause you could actually make money back if you sell them on a site...

hell i could come up with a few audiophile based names for films now..but being banned is not something that looks crispy now.

What about getting into photography?
Buy a "decent" camera, then spend all your money on lenses. Possible even a #2, #3 camera...
