Gamer Plays Over 30 Warcraft Characters

If your significant other complains that you play too much World of Warcraft, just show them this article about a user named "Prepared." He plays an amazing 36 World of Warcraft accounts on 11 different computers at the same time. He is his own raid group. "It costs me exactly $5711 in subscription costs per year with 36 accounts on the 6 month pay schedule," he writes. "Not bad considering I'm looking at it like it's a hobby and there are more expensive hobbies out there than World of Warcraft."

It always amazes me how much time/effort/money people will put into their hobbies.
5k/year for a hobby actually isn't too bad when it comes to hobbies. The time he puts in is probably above and beyond most other hobbies though.
It's funny because I was just talking to a friend about a 'hobby' I and some friends do and he was floored at the cost. Got me thinking it might be time to find a new, cheaper hobby lol...
