In euros I easily spent 1k a month, probably 2k a month at my worst. Spent a large sum of money that I received from the sale of a relatives house when they died. Went on a few holidays (To drink in a different country) but the rest went purely on booze. Expensive Irish booze
Worth every penny if it let me get to this stage of my life a lot faster than it might have otherwise.
But yeah, I'm sure I would have found some other crap to spend it on otherwise!
