I suppose you could argue so. But I am not arguing. I know myself well enough to know what makes sense for me.

It’s not the spending money.

It’s that spending money can seem like progress. But not really. At least not at first. Doing the thing is progress and I can spend what time I spend that way without product research and bargain hunting and shipping and unboxing and making room for another hobby object.

And accessories.

If I find myself at the point where buying something is progress, then that’s the time, but that is statistically less likely.
