That is incredible boon. I can't find a price on it? Damn I wish we had something like that back in my days in the military. We had the Gen. 1 pure junk.

Yup maybe I am better off not knowing? I downgraded the quality of beer I am drinking and have over $385 saved. Do yah think I would have to give up beer completely to afford one? :)

Dude I once worked with turned out to be living in my neighborhood. We get to talking & he ask what I'd been up to. I telling buying machine guns, suppressors, SBS & SBR's. Told him I been hunting in Africa a bunch.

He basically calls me a liar because he makes more then I ever did. So he stops over the house which has african mounts all over, zebra rug & still thinks I'm lying. So I break out the photos & passport and he still does not believe it Next I open the safe & start showing him tax stamps, still calling me a liar.

What really got me shaking my head was when he asked me what my rent was? I told him it's my house & It's paid for. The look on his face was priceless.

Finally I tell him straight up Steve you get off work & you buy 2 tall boys. When they are gone you go buy 2 more and you do that until you go to bed. And it aint like your buying suitcases of beer on sale @ the grocery store or liquor store, you always hit the convenience stores. And you been doing this 30 fucking years. I on the other hand seldom drink so if you think about how much you over spent on beer alone over 30 year & added it up!

Then I remind him of being married having a kid & getting divorced so he could pay child support for 18 years.

Love the night cam. Thanks for posting. I will sent it to my sons who hunt and fish.

Yup. It is not how much you make but how much you save. My first house was $6500 and I fixed it up and bought a better one and worked my way up. I have a modest home but I have a farm and farm house and a little 2 bedroom in a tri plex in Australia. I paid cash for my house 39 years ago. I have always driven top end used cars and flipped cars. I worked hard and had 4 children and my wife has 3. I have no bills and pay the credit cards off every month. It is amazing how well you can live when you don't waste money. I am sure your friend was clueless. You should have told him you had a rich uncle or were a pimp. LOL
