I bought ONE video camera in 1995.  Spent about $800 on it. 
Learned my lesson.  Hate video now.

Spent $2700 on my mountain bike back in 1992-93.  With the
exception of a few replaceable componants, is still relatively
current.  What could be upgraded needs replacing anyway.

Spent around $2300 on my road racer in 1993.  Still current.

Spent around $250 on an OM-2S in 1986.  Amazingly enough, it is
still worth around $250.

Bought a nearly new car in 1987 for $8500, drove it 200,000
miles.  Residual value: Zero.

Bought a 12 year old Toyota truck for $3500.  Sold it four years
later for something like $4500.
