People Share The First Thing They Saved Up Enough Money To Buy

12. Beatles Rockband

It seems virtually every teenager goes through a phase where they “discover” The Beatles and have their view of music fundamentally changed. For many 2000s teens, this transformation occurred with the beloved Rock Band video game franchise released a massive collection of Beatles-themed instruments and a video game of nothing but their music. To get the complete set was in the hundreds of dollars, and there was a competition to get every item from the limited edition release. With that in mind, it’s no surprise that several Redditors shared experiences of saving up as teens to purchase the fantastic set.

In fact, one Redditor, /u/bpanio, got a job and kept it just long enough to buy the set, saying they purchased “The whole Beatles Rockband set. With the drums, mic, and guitar. Only had that job for three weeks but got enough to buy it and was beyond happy.” Not to be outdone, another Redditor shared, saving up enough money now to buy a vintage John Lennon edition Rock Band guitar. The user said, “I’ve just saved up to get myself the replica John Lennon guitar from the Rock Band set; hopefully, the one I buy still works!” We hope so too.
