Thread: How do you support RAD?

Before my RAD I had WAD (watch acquisition disorder) and was into old vintage watches. Not the high end guys, but the Bulovas, Hamiltons.... To support my WAD I started selling replacement watch crystals on ebay. So now my modest ebay income now goes to RAD. I can't justify taking family income for my adictions.

I assume any man making money on extortion is running the game. At least that's how we'd expect it here.

OSAP pays for most of my RAD, I gotta pay them back though... Eventually

Feed a cold, starve the RAD.

I do not have to sacrifice any important things in order to support my RAD. It is however bothersome all the same. I have enough razors to supply my entire region. So for me it is not what I have to do without that shows the junky, it is the rapid amassing of stuff. I buy razors faster than I can repair and shave with each one once. It is not just razors for me either, G10, horn, bone slabs, plastic, it is a little disheartening when I look at it all disorganized.

Shaun, instead of being disheartened get yourself some good storage
I can't abide having piles of junk and miscellany lying around. A good storage system makes life so much easier. I am currently working through all the boxes in the workshop that have been sitting there since I moved house and I have discovered all sorts of good stuff.

Ontario Student Assistance Program - in my day it was mostly grant with some loan you needed to pay back...nowadays it's primarily interest free student loan.

Thanks mate, it's good to see that nothing has changed with the way students make use of the finances provided

Don't gamble, don't smoke, only drink moderately
Bride smokes so my habit is a lot cheaper and easier to quit & I actually have something to show for it
With an average of a $50 a week razor habit, I'm a third of the filth habit
All arguments are lost and stop there LOL
