OP, what did you buy last year when you asked the same question (but with half the budget)?

Ah, a troll...
He's probably managed to save £5k in a year on his £30k salary laugh

Too many wannabes at the £5k mark hence £10k to ensure there is no association with the HP brigade. But I think £16k should do it for a gold AP offshore

Oh no. £16k is at the lower end of prime wannabe territory, you need to spend significantly more than that.

True, but at least they actually do have money - not pretend to.

Do you make a conscious effort to come across as a tt?

So what is an acceptable salary to allow you to buy a 5k sub? Or is net worth the barometer ?

Approximately £5k less than what TP321 says to see if we can get him to come out with anymore 'I am considerably richer than yau' comments...

Can you troll a troll?

Why £150k?

Looking back at your previous threads, you can't even spell Nürburgring correctly so you shouldn't be allowed to have an expensive watch.

Thicko.

Because expensive watches are for rich, successful people. Borrowing to buy a Rolex when you drive a VW means you are a moron who is trying to live a life you cant afford as you have not earned it. You don't see the Rolex advert showing a guy standing next to his VW at the chippy with his fat bird eating chips.....lol Rolex are for rich people, so if you are not, use your energy, time, and savings to get rich - then you buy a Rolex and wear it with pride. Only then do you cease being a wannabe....

You assume that all those plebs on 30K salaries have hocked themselves for a real Rolex. Console yourself that £50 puts a credible rolex on your wrist so that must be what they're all wearing. You can relax knowing that you have the genuine article on your appendage.

Oh dear. A salary of £150k does not automatically make you rich and if your definition of rich is a salary of £150k, you clearly have little ability to judge on this matter.

Or are you creating this definition to make yourself feel better and justify to yourself why you consider yourself to be rich? I do however struggle to believe that someone as troll-tastic as you could earn £15k a year, let alone £150k.

I didn't say rich, I said that you need to be earning £150k plus before considering a £5k watch....pay attention
