anybody else have this problem? I buy too much weed lately. I spend like 50 euros a week on it and I smoke too much and it has minimum effect on me, always had. Wtf is that shit?

This is funny stuff; I knew this would happen to you. Tolerance, dude. Take a break for a week or two, you'll be amazed at the difference. Or you could just start growing. Really, if you're on a budget, growing is the way to go. It's not like you're going to start smoking less over time, and once you start hitting ~2g a day is when you realize that it isn't worth it to buy anymore. Growing is fairly simple on a small scale, too

This is usually what I do. Pack a fat bowl and hit it every 3-5 minutes. You'll get so wrapped up in TV or video games or whatever anyway that you won't even notice, and you'll stay high for hours.

Post by: cool breeze on August 28, 2008, 07:07:12 PM: Spending money does make you feel powerful. The best feeling is tipping someone more than normal, then seeing them so happy about a single extra dollar that means nothing to you, but everything to them. It almost makes me want to get my shoes shined.

Post by: Bildi on August 28, 2008, 07:25:55 PM: I'm a saving addict at the moment, and will have to be for the next 10-15 years if I want to get my mortgage paid off quick. Once you get into the rhythm it's not hard, but sometimes a bigger, somewhat unexpected expense throws it out a bit (like a TV or something).

Ditto. :-*

Sorry my post was so boring though - the last few years I've churned mercilessly through money which was more exciting. But I have to tighten the pursestrings now :wag

Post by: blk.rebl on August 30, 2008, 07:44:53 PM: yea, my only vice that i spend too much money on is weed. i spend between 50-100 per week, and that's just for the weed itself. mix the beers, munchies, club entrance fees, etc, and you have too much money down the drain per week.
