To look or not to look ?

[NARSES2]

I'm in the process of having a uge sort out at home and have found a file box with nearly all my Hannants invoices in since I started using their on-line service some 7/8 years ago. Why did I keep them ? Probably because at work there was a legal requirement to keep financial documents.

Any way we digress - the question is

1) Should I add them up and scare myself crapless ?

2) Let sleeping dogs lie ?

Methinks, Chris, that you've already secretly answered this question y'self...... however in the unlikely event that I'm wrong, here's my advice:-

LEAVE THOSE SNOOZING PUPPIES ALONE..... Y'HEAR !

I once calculated the value of my stash. Wish I hadn't.

BURN THEM!!!!!

For insurance purposes, it would be beneficial to have a full accounting to show your agent in the unlikely event something happens.

However, I would advise against any significant other ever seeing that total.

And you may want to be sitting down when you see how much money could have been spent on other things like bills, trips, twiglets, beer, etc.

I'm in a similar position, Chris. Perhaps it's the result of being an organiser and a ready person for keeping things in files.
Anyway....I'm going to burn mine as Steve says.
Good advice.

It might be fun to look at the oldest ones just to see how cheaply you were buying kits back then, but beyond that...well here there be dragons...

I think we are all of a like mind 

I will keep them because to paraphrase Phillip " you never know when you may need them", but the calculator stays away
