How much have you spent on training and dive equipment?

Can you justify the cost?

I wanted it, I enjoy it, I can afford it. That's all the justification I need.

I ran the numbers the other day. Helium is still cheaper than cocaine. gram for gram.

Not really a good comparison, Helium actually ruins the buzz. Argon is drastically cheaper than cocaine and you can still see dragons.

Recreational courses only and that were well over 20yrs ago.
OW, AOW, Rescue + 5 specialities for MSD : around US$1,500.00.

Currently at 49.562 USD. 1/3 of that amount is for gear. OC Tec, nearly 400 dives

Awesome bargain

By a factor of 2-4x so deep diving should remain a bargain for a while
