Annual maintence

All right fellow fat bikers, what are your annual maintenance costs?

I use my fat bike exclusively for winter cycling, so I would expect some harsh conditions. Last year I spent $180 on a rusted bottom bracket. After this winter, I'm looking at $300+ to replace the drivetrain (chain ring, cassette and chain) because the shop said the teeth have shark-toothed.

I never had experienced these types of costs before and I had been riding a 1979 10-speed Sekini since I bought it new.
