My sediments exactly, the only thing that would change is I would have more money to buy many different types of fta units.

Re: Millionaire ???

For sure still use FTA. Its a fun HOBBY. Just cause you got the money doesnt mean you should waste it. LOL. Just buy newer receivers.

Re: Millionaire ???

If I had millions, i could think of a whole other set of things i could be doing rather then mess around with FTA stuff. FTA is not a hobby when it involves semi legal issues, a hobby is building a train set. FTA is more of a headache that gives me something to do late at night.

Re: Millionaire ???

Heck No!! I'll be a millionaire.. Why would I mess with something like this.. It's for poor people. I'll just enjoy my money with sweet hunnies, and take a nice vacation in tropical island. You guys are all joking.
