"You are wasting money!" We hear this time and time again from our parents, peers and partners but to us it is more then just an object. It is an investment. A part of life. To some who live and breath their passions, being without that poster or figurine is like being without a kidney.

 

Assuming all members on this Forum have watched their fair share of hours of anime, and have invested large somes of money or other resources into anime or various other hobbies. When we love something and find it fun we tend to ignore what we need and/or confuse what we want with what we need.

 

For me I invest large amounts of time into things that I enjoy and make part of my life. I used to grow Bonsai and would spend hours every day working on them and such. Recently(not that recently though) I moved over to anime and have spent hundreds of hours watching. Years ago i started gaming and have spent over 10 thousand hours on my PlayStation 4 and that is without mentioning the countless hours on my PC and the Xbox 360 I played on when I stole my cousins house.

 

If you are like me and have invested time, money, blood, sweat and tears into something, feel free to post a comment below. Be sure to tell us: What it is, Why you enjoy it and Would you recommend it.

 

Perhaps we can build a bigger community and you can find fellow forumers who have similar interests other then anime.
