I am reminded of the 3 stooges episode where they are in Scotland. a Scottish character asks them how about a snort of his very rare whisky. they reply yes, and he pulls out a dust covered prized bottle. the Scottish gentleman opens the bottle, takes a deep sniff, replaces the cork, and puts the bottle back in the liquor cabinet.
bet it'll last for years using that method.

BCG, honestly I'm glad you purchased this. It will bring you great pleasure and enjoyment!
Due to this thread, I got the idea to go out for steaks, so we did. That was great and just what I wanted, so thanks for starting the thread.
I'm not even a cognac drinker, but I find myself excited for you, Blue Collar Guy. I appreciate passion in almost any form even when I don't share the passion myself.
Spending your money on what you're passionate about makes the most sense to me. ENJOY!!
I am a warbird junkie. I was recently able to fly a B-25, a MIG-15, and last week, an SNJ WW2 trainer. The total cost was over $4k, but it was worth every penny
I am passionate about Thunderbird. Whatever it costs, I'm down.
Ha

If i lived like this when i was in my 20's, i would still be working, and i would have saved up zero. This is what "they" mean when they say reap the fruit of your labors. Im likin it.. I plan on harvesting more fruit soon.
I just bought an amethyst (what else?) and diamond ring.
It was some dead person's used jewelry, so I saved money.

What's the reason? Grapes in season!What's the word? Thunderbird!
What's the price? Fifty twice...
I tried to buy some cat poop coffee once at ~$250 a pound or something like that but it was always sold out. If you really want to try something, price is not always the barrier.

Kopi luwak. Luckily, DW isn't interested in trying it! (Dumb me--I just assumed civets were "monkeys"; cat is much closer. Learned something new today. Thanks, Fermion!)

I thought this was an inside joke, but truth is stranger than fiction once again.
And all this time I thought it was only politicians who tried to feed people a load of cr*p.
Heh, heh. You need to watch THE BUCKET LIST and watch Morgan Freeman (as Carter the dying auto mechanic) tell Jack Nicholson (as Edward, the dying Megamillionaire) what gives Kopi Luwak its unique and expensive flavor. It's the best laugh of the movie - worth it just for this scene. YMMV

Ok the oh so fussy kids were away yesterday so we splurged... stuffed flounder for dinner! The crab meat was $19 a pound. Oh so good. I guess my idea of splurging is pretty small time. They will be away tonight as well - lobster tails!
I say if you can afford it and you really want it...do it.
