Well, let's see. My ex hubby did the following (within 6-8 months):

1). Traded his 2006 vehicle for a 2010 vehicle
2). Bought a used sports car
3). Bought OW a brand new car (later traded for a truck for himself)
4). Purchased two motorcycles
5). Bought all kinds of leather motorcycle gear
6). Talked about taking flying lessons (never did)
7). Bought a bicycle (no knowledge that he's ever ridden it)

Oh, one more thing..........my ex just closed on a house without a job!

Mine:

traded in old car for new "sporty" car
LOTS of new clothes (a shiney silver/grey rainjacket that tops the list of most tasteless items I have ever seen him wear, but I am sure it cost a packet)
whole new wardrobe for my little girl (went shopping with OW as if they are playing dress-up with a doll) very little for my son, who is older (not so cute? :o) and so doesn't get his own wardrobe of clothes at daddy's house.


I do not talk to him, so other than that i really have no idea what else he spends his money on. Before BD he was constantly downloading the latest pop music onto his ipod, buying CD's and DVD's, because (and I quote) "I just love the ENERGY of teenagers, they are so cool".

Well, maybe if they ARE in fact teenagers. Not so sure about 36 year old men masquerading as teenagers; are they cool? Lets ask some teenagers..... :P

WWTD,

I'm glad you got this going.LOL  The Hula Hoop is the most mentally challenged purchase so far.  Mine was going to rent to own a condo in case he decided to come back.  He spent 250K buying one, it just fell in his lap, fully furnished it, big screen tv (but he only has basic cable, boo hoo) and says he can't afford the electricity to run the air and now can't afford to replace worn out shirts.  Well Moron, what did you think was going to happen?

LIW, My best friend just came back from a cruise. She said one of the performers could spin 50 Hula Hoops at a time.  Maybe he's looking for a career in the cruise industry. ;D

  I'm lucky mine is very FRUGAL and tired and depressed.  He walks around like Clint Eastwood with a bug up his ass. A scared and confused Clint Eastwood. He goes to Salvation Army and buys a Mr Coffee Pot for 3 dollars and spends the next 10 years reminding me how smart he is to buy things at a cheap price.  ::) ::)
 Meanwhile  I can buy a really cool coffee pot with less than 1 hours pay from work and I'd rather work hard and have a couple of NICE COOL THINGS.
  I am hoping he doesn't get cash advances on his secret Visa card to pay THEIR rent. The stupid Bowser Train Wreck Suzzie. ::)
