How do you waste money?

[SoCal]

My "thing" is to win jackpots in video poker (2k - 4k) and then to give it all back within 2 weeks. usually I start researching the specs on some electronic equipment I want to buy and then... rather then buy it... go back to the casino and dump the money. It's really a great wasteful system. Anyone looking to waste some money should try it. The key is to NOT buy the electronics item you are researching so that when you lose the jackpot money, there is nothing to show for it.

Eating out, nightclubs/concerts, language courses.
Though at least the last thing probably not really qualifies as "wasting" money since it helps a lot settling down in a new country and making new friends/getting to know the locals.

cell phones, still pay for everything for my adult kids who are making good money

have everything you can have on cable TV, except porn channels

keep windows open with AC on

eat out 7 or more times a week (lunch and/dinner)

drink scotch or tequila

go to casinos, get extra room for kids

loan my dead beat brother money

open about 25 bottles of wine between Christmas Eve and New Years Day

put high octane in my low mileage car

and some stuff I'm not going to mention

ATM fees at the Casino! They really rob you at the casino ATMS more than at a normal ATM

Biggest waste of money is definitely any alcoholic beverage i have purchased at nyc clubs/lounges over the years. Couple weeks ago at some rooftop lounge..$11 for beer. A drink on the rocks? That will be $17 please. If you dont feel like running a tab you can use our ATM....the surcharge is $8. Its actually cheaper to get loaded on "illegal" drugs during a night out.

We simply don't return stuff in my house. We buy it and it doesn't fit or work and nobody bothers to return the GD crap!!!

what is 'wasting money'? I suppose using disposable income that could have been used for greater enjoyment? or derived elsewhere with less cost.

we all have disposable monies. If you're not having fun with it, what's the point?

 

[NBAcapper08]

1. Dunkin donuts overpriced coffee
2. Golfing was a big one, i now play for free twice a month through my boss
3. 212$ on cable to watch only sports
4. Fancy smart phone that we all got tricked into thinking is normal
5. Any drink after the first 2 at the bar
6. Anything involving Atlantic City
