Biggest Purchase in your life

[tvguy]

K-12 of private school for my son. He told me he didn't like it and secretly wanted to go to public school. He told me this after he graduated. We could have a nice weekend bungalow by the lake for what we spent on his schooling. Ugh.

I was lucky. Both my kids have said they said they appreciate our decision to keep them in private school.
My daughter in particular was shocked when she hit college at how far behind her classmates were from public schools is basic English, Math and Science.

Well, if I can't list anything related to my home, I guess my most expensive purchase was this dress.

I hope you had enough money left over for underwear, unlike this poor girl...

I was driving down the road and Catarpillar had a sign out front that says SALE, they had hot dogs and hamburgers, so I bought an excavator. It was really an impulse buy, I got in a lot of trouble with it so I later sold it.

Those hot dogs get you every time!!!!

Probably the combine for the farm, over a quarter million dollars. Also tractors, they’re expensive too.
Next would be our 30 acres of land up north.
Vacations/cruises.

My wedding. My wife and I paid for it ourselves so even excluding the rings it was our biggest purchase so far.

Oooh - good one! I wasn't thinking about things like that. Our wedding would definitely be up there, along with 4 years of private school tuition for DS.

Our Motorhome - like a DVC, but we own it - 'and' it goes wherever we want to go, not tied to one place.

I wasn't thinking about weddings I paid for 95% of it myself, that was more the DVC, and It was actually more expensive than the divorce.

Anyone care to share what they spent on their DVC? I'll play. Back in 2003, $84.00/pt.=$15,000 (BCV) best money we ever spent!

The most expensive thing I've bought completely with my own money was my Nintendo 3DS xl.

College tuition for our three kids. A new deck, a new roof and most expensive "fun" thing purchased was a Vespa for my husband for father's day a few years back. He LOVES it!! Oh and of course Disney Cruises are expensive.
