My gadget budget is relatively limited for various reasons
- in my country in my position I earn significantly less than I would if I was working at the same position in USA, or Germany, or ...
- despite our lower income we have to pay more for gadgets here, because if the gadget is sold for $199 in USA it will be sold for at least 200Eur here
- my interests are wide and my "fun budget" is also used to purchase tools for my modest woodworking / metalworking ( ) workshop I have built at home and other things
