How Much Money Have You Burned

Think of all the money you've spent on snacks and food beyond what is necessary to sustain yourself. Nobody ever feels guilty about that shit though.
 
damn starting to spend more and more. but its not a waste imo. id rather have a good ass time with my buddies than have a nice painting in my house personally
 
Atleast a couple hundred thousands of dollars, maybe a half mil over the last 10-12 years , the worst thing is im not exaggerating. And im not rich.
 
I estimate about 20k. Over 5 years, 3 of which I was smoking heavy, heavy weed and occasionall pills, coke, or psychs. 2 years of that I was shooting heroin and morphine.

I was under 20 and unemployed for that whole time. I could've bought a nice car :(
 
how much money do you think you have blown on drugs??

So in the last 2 weeks i have come across about 2100 dollars through work and a tax credit (canada owed me money for once). I have 500 dollars left. I spent about 200 on gas, 100 insurance and maybe another 100 on food and lighters/deodorant/toothbrush etc etc. I also payed off my visa which took $400. So i spent 800 dollars on things i pretty much had to buy. Thats not the problem 1300 left not 500. I blew 800 dollars on drugs in 2 weeks on benzos/pot and booze. fml. If i was to guess i say i have spent about 100,000 dollars in the last 10 years on drugs. im 25 and that could have been a down payment on a house. btw i work my ass for my money, get payed just over minimum wage so im not rich.

yeah about 1000 dollars a month for the last 10-11 years.... fml

How much you think you have blown??
 
to much to know where to even begin to add up the figures

i do knowthat in 08-09 i had 13K in my bank acct and emptied it by 2009. plus god knows how much else ive spent
 
I have no way of quantifying this. I would tell myself when I was drinking daily I wouldn't spend a certain amount of dollars on alcohol even though I lived in an area with cheap alcohol but there were some nights when I'd go over this including tips since I'd always tip bartenders since it's only right and to get on their good side. Other nights when I didn't pay for as many drinks at all, and I also would have times when I'd drink liquor at home or drink cans or bottles of beer both which were considerably cheaper than if I'd bought them at a bar and I also had people buy me drinks or I'd meet them at a bar and we'd start drinking together and split a pitcher of beer or they'd buy me a beer so I'd buy them one, etc.
 
Over 100k in drugs alone since I started using.

This does not include court costs and fines. It also doesn't include the cars I crashed while fucked up.

100k will get you a house where I live.
 
If I combine drugs & gambling then I have turned over a million + inside a decade. Actual financial loss is well over $250K
 
25k here. easy. this is what i have tried to block out the most. i would get serious anxiety when i thought about having to pay bills or opening my back acct to see what the balance was at.
ive been at this for only 3 years...
 
I maxed out a $6,000 credit card on poppy pods, paying for it now. Spent much too much throughout my life. Now I pay $200 a month for suboxone (another 200 comes out of health insurance.)
 
in my last treatment center we had to tally up how much money we spent and how much we cost society as a whole (our money+court/legal fees+insurance payouts for treatment+hospital bills, etc).
grand totals:
my money- $100,000+ in three years
total cost- $300,000+ in three years

Many threads with this same question. I think you have to look in drug culture.

Anyway, Ive spent in the low six figaments. I only consider like 20% of that "blown" tho.

Indeed. Merged.
 
makes me sort of sad reading this. instead of half of us being junkies we could be fly ass mofos driving bugottis and beamers.

as much as i love drugs i wish i could go back 7 years and never have took that hit of weed or that first drink or that first pll i took. adding up my money that ive spent makes me wanna throw up. shits fucking pathetic (not aimed at you guys, im speaking for myself in general)

just because you dont make a 100 a day doesnt mean you wont steal or whatever else to make that 100. thats what we junkies do, if we need a fix, physical or mental, where gonna find a way to do it
