Look on the bright side: he could have used that $650 on some real heat and shot you guys for flaming him.

he should have saved it.
edit: best advice is not to own a credit card.

how could you NOT look at prices?
this is all relative. 2.50 to you might be 650 to someone else, so you can't make judgments on things like this out of your own pocket solely based on the number.
on the other hand, a BTG thread is probably the wrong place for me to defend logic. carry on.

I think I can count on one hand how many times I've used any of my three credit cards. I got 'em, but I just don't see the sense other than establishing credit which I'm doing by paying off my car anyways. I know that interest doesn't really accrue on most if you pay them off immediately, but for me it's not really worth the hassle. I generally buy what I can afford.

spending 650 dollars on a paintball gun is idiotic. spending 40 dollars on a video game one already has just for one night is idiotic.
in no way was what I did an impulse purchase either. I have had several people recommend this movie to me and I needed something to keep myself busy as I waited for CHKDSK to fix my desktop for three hours.
Money well and modestly spent.
i really wasn't paying too much attention in this thread, tbh
