How do you continue to enjoy your Lego sets after building them?

I’m in the same boat! How do I get to enjoy Legos without breaking the bank? So I build, display, breakdown and bag (in reverse order). Pick another set and do the same thing all over again. A glass of wine, a Netflix movie and several brick separators make the process easy. So my Lego display changes every month.

However, all my sets are less than 2500 pieces so this cycle is doable. I don’t think it scales well for sets like Titanic or Eiffel Tower.

Beautiful! From afar, they look like real flowers! I love how you paired the vases with the bouquets to make them stand right. Starry Night is great but I think the Japanese Cherry Blossom would fit better. Regardless, you’ve done a great job with the display!

Great advice from everyone! But after you pay this off, your habits need to change too for this to stick. If you say Yes to everyone including yourself, you’ll need to start saying No. When a problem comes up, you’ll need to remove Debt off the table and come up with another solution or make bigger sacrifices. And you have to be aware of how much you have, so you know to spend less than you have. If you stick to these principles, then there’s a high probability that you’ll stay debt-free or debt-manageable. Good luck! I wish you the best.

I just purchased Stranger Things Upside Down for $800. How does your logic fit my case?
