I can only buy with money I "earn" by taking care of my health, as detailed here.

So here is what I earned so far this year, along with doing some great things for my health and enjoying the immediate gratification structure that normally is missing from dieting and exercise:

Jason,
Good for you to take some small but positive steps towards health and have it apply to you hobby in a good way. I think it's a great idea and would encourage you to start your own thread about this so we as a community can see your progress.
Imagine how great you will feel both physically and emotionally when you've earned enough for Jackie Robinson or a Sandy Koufax.

For those who don't know what this is all about I would encourage you to read Jason's link in his above post.

Best of luck and keep us posted,
Drew
