That makes a lot of sense. My rate of buying stuff doesn't stay constant. There is only so much crap a person needs. Once I built up my "foundational" collection of stuff, the need to acquire slows down.
I don't buy as much music as I used to, anymore. I have a massive CD collection, I can hardly keep up with all the CBC podcasts I download, and every now and then I hear more music on the radio and youtube.
Same with books, movies, etc. I'm in my 40's and have spent most of my life acquiring the stuff that makes me "me".
