I never realized when I bought my Canon that I should have destroyed my credit cards

I'm so tempted to putting these four lenses on there right now

CANON EF-S 10-22MM 3.5-4.5 USM LENS
CANON EF 85MM/F1.8 USM
SIGMA 50-500MM F4-6.3 EX
SIGMA 105MM F2.8 EX DG SONY MACRO

Seriously, I COULD survive very well if I ate Raman noodles every day/all three meals for the next 3 years couldn't I?

You'd just be caving to the forum! This place can make you spend more money then you'd ever imagine.

Seriously, it's not worth it though. The worst thing I've done is the BillMeLater through B&H. That being said though, I'll do side work or trade stocks to pay the bill. I have yet to pay interest on any camera gear.

That being said, you've picked great lenses :D Except for the last one. You'd be disappointed with a Sony mount, plus the Sigma 150 macro seems like a better lens :D

You have 2 somewhat similar lenses on your wish list: 85 f1.8 and 105 f2.8 I would consider getting just one of these - the macro if that is important to you. Unless you have money to spend try and make your lens choices more distinct from each other for maximum bang for your buck.
