How Much Have You Spent On Cables Throughout The Years. I'm Shocked When I Checked.


I just checked the total cost of cables which I still own, all types of cables including spares. It's all recorded in an Excel sheet, actual price paid and not MSRP.

I'm shocked. It's a whopping sum of $22.4k. crying

I'm sure there would be people who have spent more. I have seriously overspent on cables though I still need to get another mains power cable before I call it a day, a rather costly one.

It’s amazing how contentious this thread has become. We have insulting , threatening, foreign country’s and just a lot of hate. Is it because we don’t value each other , we don’t really know each other ? I worked in a large prison for 25 years and people there were more civil towards each other. All this over a piece of wire and/or the cost of the wire. One day I was struggling with my anger ( I have ptsd ) and my mentor asked me “ Mike when was the last time you looked in the mirror and said I love you “? In that moment I realized I never had. We certainly can’t talk politics and now we can’t even talk wire. I’m not interested in co-signing anybody but I’ve never seen @mulveling put on blast before, he’s one of the most positive people here. What do we have left ?  Respectfully, Mike B. 

Many cables, when bought used, hold their value for a long time, so ultimately not really that expensive...

Maybe 10 k at least. I still can’t tell the difference, I WASTED MY MONEY. Just kidding. 

That’s quite a lot, but make sure you include it under “home improvement” in your itemized tax deductions to help offset some of the cost.  IRS and your accountant would agree that is for "home improvement."cool

@buellrider97 ,

It’s because a certain consistently banned member here can’t help but spew his childish, immature, school yard insults. He’s been banned well over a dozen times and he just keeps coming back to spew more of it. His current incarnation is foggyus91. He’s the one who wrote that lovely thing to me in my last post, and in a now deleted post told another member to ’blow it out his *ss.’ So, we know him all too well; A mealy mouthed, little paper bully who’d fold like a wet dish rag if ever personally confronted.
