This is one of those topics that I believe there is no real wrong answer per se. If one has the means and the desire to chase things that they desire, then by all means do so, nothing wrong with that. But, I also believe that there is a point where it can become toxic and counter productive. What point that becomes a problem is purely individual and needs to be recognized as such.

These days though I tend to fall into the less is more and quality over quantity in terms of guns. But, when that itch to buy something kicks in, I usually counter it by buying mags and ammo. But even that is becoming less and less of a desire these days. This is just the stage of life that I am at, not trying to sway yours or anyone's choices.

Good luck in your choice.
