That’s at least like… Ten crunchwrap Supremes!

A low-mid range PC. Maybe? Prices for components are fucking wack and I’m broke anyway, so I am not sure how far 1000 dollars would go rn.

My current PC was ~$900, built in 2019 and was for low-entry VR, or high performance in flat space games for 1080p res and 144hz.

Depends on how much you mind restoration/cleaning work for fountain pens. I’ve already got all the entry tier stuff covered, so buying new pens at MSRP would probably mean somewhere between 1-3 pens, depending on how fancy I’m looking to get. I already have an ultrasonic cleaner and plenty of repair supplies, so I’d be hitting up auctions, personally. Depending on what’s in the lots and how many people notice the contents, 1000€ would probably get me somewhere between 200-400 pens. Probably another 200 or so if I get to count what I could buy with the proceeds of selling off the ones I’m not interested in.

A thousand euros in airsoft will get you a high-quality gun or two, depending on what you’re looking for and where you’re getting it from. Generally, replica pistols and “standard” rifles tend to be cheaper than anything heavy or exotic.

And you’ll probably have plenty of cash left over, for things like safety gear, special clothing, and gun-related accessories like slings and holsters.

The most expensive gun in my collection, a replica of the pistol from Kingsman, was €430. I spent about another 100 on spare magazines, shotgun shells, and a custom holster. My next-priciest gun cost less than half that, even after acquiring similar accessories

I haven’t put any money into modifying any of my guns, since that’s an entire other can of worms I don’t feel like opening. Most guns will be perfectly playable out of the box, rarely needing more than heavier BBs or a hopup adjustment to be improved.

A suit of plate armour, and maybe a shield or a weapon.

An absolute shitton of indie games

Few or many diseases depending on how I spend it.

A decent road bike. Not top specced, and with none of the additional gear you’ll probably want, but you can definitely get started with €1k. I bought my current bike for approximately €700 and have upgraded + bought additional gear for probably a bit over €1k, but that has gotten me some really great stuff and I basically want for nothing in the sport.

One nice guitar or a couple decent guitars, one rare comic book or a shit load of common comic books

digital art: i guess… a new drawing tablet? maybe a laptop that’s also a tablet with pen pressure and stuff. would be neat

gaming: upgrade my pc (add a dedicated gpu, new power supply, water cooling, etc) + better peripherals

On raves…? 😵‍💫

Maybe a third of a used or import lathe or mill.

Machining is super expensive as a hobby to get started.

Which is why I’m slowly upgrading my cheap CNC router to be more rigid and capable, bit by bit. Machined stainles for the first time last week. though i’ll never get close to a ‘real’ machine, in hobby machining, everything is a finishing pass…
