As a confirmed gearhead all my life I know exactly what you mean.Figuring 
the money Ive spent on antique restorations, hot rods, muscle cars. etc I 
could have had a trophy wife or three, a couple of mistresses, a McMansion 
and a garage full of exotic imports.

But Id be a miserable SOB as that was never my goal in life.
