That is opportunity cost.

I wonder what returns I have had due solely to my shape.

I am fighting with them now thru lawyers..they agreed to pay the entire thing originally then denied the claim after the surgery.we're in court.

**MatrixGuy** · 08-08-2006, 01:08 PM

Well my surgery in June for starters set me back over £8,000 ($13,000). My first cycle cost about £300 ($570). I spend about £200 a month on just food.. about £100 on supplements. Gym membership is an ass raping £42.50 a month ($81).

I havent spent enough money yet to answer this question.

**chest6** · 08-08-2006, 02:56 PM

Too much..I get all mad when I think about all the supplements I used to buy when I didnt know the greatest supplement of all...food. I thought my lack of gains needed supplementation..but really it was a few thousand more calories..

**WEBB** · 08-08-2006, 02:59 PM

Supplements are a huge help, but nothing replaces food...

**WEBB** · 08-08-2006, 02:59 PM

***Doc.Sust*** · 08-08-2006, 03:20 PM

cant put a price on excellence!! what does it matter, it was worth every penny and i dont care to add it all up on paper.

**wascaptain5214** · 08-08-2006, 03:28 PM

i dont care about the monies ive spent on my hobby. but sometime i think if id have put this much time in school, i be a doctor of something. i figure the time i spend working out will pay off when i am older. at work i go to old folks homes often, and the women out number the men 20 to one. and all the men got big smiles!
