My wife would love to talk to you.

I always have been a collector.
Comics and books as a child. I still have about 8.000 comics in my attic.
(Financed by successful trading and working as a paperboy for years).
Later it was DVDs (about 600), now it's digital content:
12.208 TV episodes in iTunes
1.745 movies in iTunes
I know, this seems a lot. And if I calculate the amounts I've spent...

But: This all added up over years.
I'm buying ebooks since 2007 (Microsoft lit before since 2000).
I've got maybe 1.800 since 2007 in total. That's roughly € 18.000. In 7 years.
That's € 2.500 per year = € 200 per month. That's not "nothing".
But lots of people spend more on Restaurants. I spend maybe € 200 per months on Restaurants, and that's mostly business related (= taxable).
Meaning:
I spend a lot. Too much probably.
But if I compare to other hobbies, it's okay. Not modest probably, but okay.
