Things you've wasted lots of money on when you were younger

[brinks]

I'm now 22, from 13 to 17 i spent AT LEAST $2000 of my part job money on "band equipment", consisting of around 5-7 junk guitars that i couldn't live without then, and the 4 amplifier systems i went through as a result of trade in's and buying slightly better models. My "band" and i were averaging about $200 a week at our local music store for a whole summer.

I dont regret spending it all on band equipment, but i just wish i could have saved some money then so i would have a sick Les Paul or something now.

The best part of this is: I never even got any good til i stopped buying gear and stopped playing with my "band".

One may now consider it a waste to have spent thousands on RC cars or Magic cards, etc. But you if you had fun, why is it a waste.
