What does 1000€ buy you in your favourite hobby?

All you need to start playing Standard, Pioneer and maybe Modern in Magic the Gathering. Or like maybe half a Legacy deck.
In my other hobbies which are rebuilding with old lego by hand and imagination, baking and reading a grand will keep me good for a year. Or 5. Depends on motivation and how many free books I pick up.
wrote on last edited by [email protected]A few years ago I finally sold my assortment of still-sealed merch I was given during my time at WotC (Phyrexia through Innistrad). It fetched almost $5k. Still, it's hard to believe a grand won't buy a thoroughly awesome legacy deck. Never really was a player myself tho and I haven't kept up with current prices at all, so I believe it.

fellow sailer here, didn't mullvad discontinue port forwarding a while ago?
Hmm I'd have to admit I had idea what port forwarding is, but I searched it and apparantly if you don't have it, torrents are slower?
Mullvad was just for the sake of the question, I used Mullvad for a month, the IVPN, but nah, it aint for me. Those have too few servers to choose from and thus too many people are using the same servers, so Youtube ended up red flagging it, and require signing in. I use ProtonVPN now, because there are like 11000 servers (I think?) so its really easy to get a server that's not blocked by Youtube.

About like 10 of the must have flashlights or a few good customs. Or one fourth of some really extreme ones.

Yes, you can. I guess I should have been more specific because I was thinking of a complete kit when I wrote that (so including helmet, boots, gloves, etc) and you do need to set your sights a bit lower to make the budget work for that.
fair enough, safe riding

1000€ (roughly $1600 CAD) would be a nice down payment on a decent cargo bike like the Yuba Mundo Lux.

A good number of games on my PC.
Anywhere from 3-100 books of sheet music depending on the books.
A bunch of used blu-rays.
A ton of used records.
A new set of speakers for my record and/or home theatre setup(s).
A new amp for my record setup.
A new pre-amp for my record setup.
A little over half the parts for a new gaming PC.
Around 3-5 vintage watches for me to fix up.
Some new tools for fixing up vintage watches.
About 7-8 pocket knives.
A new kitchen knife set.
Some new pots and pans.
Does alcohol count as a hobby? If so then 5-10 bottles of scotch.
Shit, I have a lot of hobbies. No wonder I have no money. There’s probably stuff I’m forgetting too. Damn.

Two surf boards, you only need one and can fix it pretty cheaply for like 20 bucks, but having a lot of surfboards is nice

Funny story - we used to have little in-house tournaments after work before a release, which I sometimes played in just for fun - I sucked at the game. But one time I was literally walking into the tournament room and just decided nah, not tonight, and went home. Found out the next day, everybody who participated in that one received a free Black Lotus.
