[QUOTE="mbasko, post: 234152, member: 4485"] You can put it into this perspective: I gold prospect/fossick as my one main hobby. My gear, including a used GPZ, totals well under $10k My brother has fishing as his one main hobby. His gear would total in excess of $30k. He's not rich, neither am I, but we both are passionate about our hobbies. The big difference is I can legally get some return by selling finds - he can't & has licences, boat rego etc. I don't think $10k for your main hobby is that excessive for the average bloke when you look at what a lot of other hobbies cost or even what's laying around in a lot of blokes sheds not being used? Most people with hobbies make sacrifices to maintain them. Plenty of common blokes with many more thousands of dollars tied up in their hobbies than $10k but it can & does in a lot of cases take quite a few years to get there. I started with a $100 VLF.....
