467 books at last check, but some of those are complete volumes of an authors work. I have about 12 of those. This is over a 5 year period of time, so a little under 100 books a year.
My Mom uses my Kindle account and she buys what she wants. I don't get a ton of the free books because they do not look interesting to me. So I am sure my average is close $10 a book. (shrugs)
It is a matter of priorities, I enjoy reading and I don't buy much music or DVDs. My Mom and Dad paid for college so I pay for my Mom's books. I don't care what she pays. If I can't afford it at some point int time, I can tell her and we will work something out.
Personally, I think there are plenty of ways to put together an expansive library without spending a ton of money but who cares if you do? If you can afford it, then go for it. There really shouldn't be a need to comment on peoples spending habits.
