There is a vinyl resurgence , sorta... young kids wanting to be different

Most LP listeners will say Records 'sound different' - warmer more pleasing than CDs or MP3

However , it takes more $$$ to get a vinyl system to sound better than the cost of a mid-Fi CD Player

seaborneq · 03-23-20, 10:41 AM

Got my credit card bill under control. Just not betting or spending the same Amounts the past few months. Not losing money and paying off debt versus sending it to the books has changed for the majority of us that don’t win consistently.

harthebar · 03-23-20, 12:27 PM

Not so much money. But my time and stress. Are free. Free at last . . You know staying up late looking at scores wasting your Saturdays and sundays wat hing sports on beauty days it's a free. so time is money. And money I serve

pimike · 03-23-20, 02:01 PM

I’m ok so far. Baseball is my bread and butter. Hoops bet very sparingly anyways.

As of now I haven’t missed a beat?

I probably saved $2k to $3k not betting on March Madness. I also just bought another pistol and shotgun.

DiggityDaggityDo · 03-23-20, 02:40 PM

I also got a new pistol and shotgun.

I picked up a sig and a mossberg.

I shot the balls off the guy on the paper at the shooting range with the shotgun.
