[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Big_Boy_4005 [quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Neerie I'm one of those rare women model railroader [:)] I have not yet build my first layout, mostly because I'm still a student living at her parents, studies cost a lot, but the money I'll get from a good job will go into trains, it's a long term investment [swg] I must admit that most people look at me funny when I mention model trains and scenery and how much it's something that's always interested me, but who cares, that's what I like. My mother doesn't really like the idea, my father loves it and my girlfriend thinks it's very very cool. She herself is into modeling, just into model houses, who knows, one day, she might be the one making the buildings for my layout [8D] To each their thing, but when it comes to model trains or modeling in general, I think it's just a stereotype and this same stereotype is what drives many women away from the hobby. [/quote] I think that's wonderful that you want to get into this hobby. Just one word of advice, buy the trains because you like them, and don't consider them an investment in terms of dollar value. They are not that kind of investment. There is a lot of value in this hobby, but it comes from the time you spend learning facts and skills, and making things. Oh and watch out, I think a lot of the guys here want dates.[swg] [/quote] What I ment in investment was that I'm keeping my money for my studies now so I can get a good job and more money that I can use for trains later. And as for dates, read again, I'm taken [:D]
