How bout an angle finder? Put the rest away for a rainy day...or, get a bag that protects the gear in the rain...so you can shoot in the rain. Or a new set of filters, ot batteries on the cheap, or....the list goes on.

Sometimes, I find that as expensive as the lenses are, the accessories aren't that much cheaper, for what one gets, for what one pays.

What would you advise me to do with that much money?

Is donating to a charity looking after Aids orphans in Africa an option?

You might want to hold onto it in case your need a new internet router.

Again.

I was thinking $600.00 might be just about right to convince some out of work Dorchester boys to break someones typing fingers..

Just looking out. If I was a single guy with $600.00 burning a hole in my pocket, I would be on my way to Vegas with a pretty lady :eek:

I think we should do a poll on when Ronald will get his next 24-70. :) For around $800, you can get a good used one. :)

We only have $600.00 :eek:

Let see:

One night at the Westward Ho=$50.00 :lol:
Food (Buffets)=$50.00
Celine Dion=$250.00 :confused:
Drinks=$250.00

That leaves no money for a date or gas money to get home. Looks like your going to have to get a job in Vegas after this one :eek:

move to Vegas after the mountain resort?.. well.. I do have friends in Vegas and i'll probably be ready for a climate change... I kind of have my heart set on Yellowstone... but, I could always spend the winter in Nevada and the summer in Yellowstone.. it is kind of pretty.. those canyons lend themselves to black and white very well... hmm... I have a friend who worked there for awhile.. he probably has an 'in' at a couple of places.... haha.. see?.. now you have me thinking.. I really could move to Vegas..

Buy the complete Madonna back catalogue - increase her wealth and allow her to adopt a bunch more kids. An economist calls that wealth distribution. ;)
