Default What's the most money you've spent on something?

As the title says, what is the ONE thing(cant be a set or group of things) you've spent the most money onever, whether related to your car or not. One rule is no cars, no houses. We know those things cost a ton.

As for me, I spent about $800 on getting my a/c fixed on my old 92 taurus b4 I had my stang.

I'm in that club too. We're over 50K invested in the house over the last 4 years. This year alone we're over 5 grand.

$200,000 on a house. $17,500 on a car. $4,000 on a TV. $3,000 on a watch. Those are the biggest single purchases I can come up with right now.
