The cost of punting...... Money well spent??

**Derry lad** · 27-12-10, 23:38

Financially it's never a waste but there is an emotional cost involved maybe even a physcological cost???

**banterboy** · 27-12-10, 23:56

Financially 4/5 grand and absolutely no emotional costs. Hopefully never any health costs!

I dont consider it money wasted. The experiences have enriched my life. I do wonder though if a time comes when I want to stop, will I be able to

I think I have spent a bit less than you though I have no idea as to the exact amount. I dont consider any of it wasted. I have been very lucky and have had nothing but good meetings so far and long may that continue.

I never count the cost it's money well spent.I don't know I have never had a bad experience .

The question asked was "The Cost of Punting is it money well spent"
The short answer is probably not, before i get chastised for this opinion
let me explain. By its nature punting is a luxury item and luxury items are
not good value for money(which is why they are referred to as luxury)
Same as drinking a very expensive bottle of wine with a meal, is it really
value for money? probably not. The luxury handbag that cost alot of
money will only do same job as a reasonably good one for say €100.
To fly first class? again not good value relativly speaking. A very
expensive watch ?again a cheaper one will tell the time.
To be honest once u start talking about luxury items value as such
goes out the window so i think unless u start comparing one luxury
item to another u cant really talk about whether its money well spent
or not
