The good thing about gear is no matter how much you spend you realize you are better off than people buying recreational drugs...
This thread makes you think...I always tried to ignore the total cost, especially in the past few months that spiro and minoxidil have become a must for me. If time on = time off, that's 4-6 month's worth of test, deca/eq/tren, orals, and ancillaries...$400 / cycle, 2 cycles a year, that's $800 on AAS.
For me viagra and hair stack is also a must. This is all hypoethical, as I don't have enough to sustain this budget for any length of time...but those for 365 days would be 12 about $500.
Add in protein and supplements, $3000 annually a year is probably the bare minumum for any serious bodybuilder. (You can drink yourself poor if you're a fan of muscle milk and other fancy proteins.)
