My 5 Year Old Son

I am a single father raising a 5 Year Old Son. I have three (soon to be two) Mark VIII's and I am remodeling my house. I also build high end computers. Very High end computers. By far the most rewarding thing in my life is my son. He is my reason for getting up every morning. The last couple of years has been very rewarding financially, so I am basically spoiling my son and enjoying him.

Other hobbies are working out all the time and spending time with my wife and baby. Not much expense there.

WOW, I also have a reef tank. It's a 75g with too much crap to list. Zoos/ricrodias/clams/sps/anemones/carpets/etc. Fish include powder blue/scopas tang/2 clowns/6 line wrasse. Also have several cleaner shrimp
That is my most expensive hobby

besides that, I play golf and poker.

Beside my car, I also have a 55 gallon reef tank and just like all of the others have said, that is a very expensive hobby. Just to list a couple of my favorite items in the tank: 2 gold bar maroons (mated), yellow watchman goby, purple firefish, harlequin shrimp, red and blue goniapora, and blastomussas. I kinda stopped buying fish stuff though and now doing things for my LS again. For example, tomorrow I'm getting my headliner and pillars done in suede. And that's not too cheap.

I also have a RC racer,but it has never been in a race.I won it when I was a Dr.Pepper salesman.It is a replica of the Dr.Pepper busch series car,and it is super fast.I have a 13 year old nephew that was going to run beside it to see how fast it is,and he couldn't keep up with it.

Well the first place money burner has got to be the kid$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$, but thats not really a hobby.

But other than that it's those holes in the water you throw money into, you know, boats. I'm currently helping to maintain and operate three sailboats, 25, 30, and 36 ft, and a 38 ft Hershine trawler (with tanks for 350 gal. of diesel, go say "fill 'er up!)

I've been blowing a lot of Ducats on photography too, film and digital. Still like film for a lot of things.

I have 5 kids. OMG I know what expensive is!!

What's a hobby?

SilverLs,

Isnotmydaddies,
Quit that smoking and it will pay for your tank. Patience is a virtue in reefkeeping.


Nc2tarheels,

Do you have any pics?

NVmylS,

How about you any pics of your Mini Eco System?
People think I'm crazy when I try to explain the eco system that were totally in control of.


TodG,

TheuncleSam,

Two grown kids (kids never forget Dad's wallet), 6 grandkids, a Harley and a 51 Chevy classic pickup. Oh yeah, and a wife.

My other hobby is my minitruck. It is a 1997 S-10 regular cab and it is definently a work in progress. I have shaved the doors, cab seams, 3rd brake light, tailgate, frenched the antenna, and molded in the roll pan. I plan to bodydrop and bag it this summer and get it painted flat black. Also I am putting 20's and some kind of front end conversion before it is all said and done. Also the interior needs some attention. But it is definently an expensive hobby!
