working hard to save some coin

Well over the past couple of week i have been working hard to save some coin and buying the odd lotto ticket with high hopes. With the exchange rate not looking so great at the moment im going to try have about $5000 in the bank just to live off and another couple for well, skis and cameras etc… Ive chosen a k2 179 hell bent because i got it cheap off a mate, so heres hoping its a good plan. Ive also got a pair of 189 obsethed, and cant decide weather too take both or just the hell bents.
