Damn is it really that bad? I hate buying new shit. I spent a year thinking about replacing my head phones (5 year old Sennheisers) before getting a pair of Noise canceling AKGs. I have a 5 year old MacBook that I want to replace but don’t because it’s just fine for what I need.

Shit I spend most of my money on food.

Have you always been like that? When I was young, there was always more stuff that I wanted. Now as I approach 50, what I really want is more time to use the stuff that I bought.

I'm in the same boat as you.

I bought new earpads last week for my 15 year old pair of Sennheiser HD477 rather than buying a new set of headphones, and my primary laptop is an X230 from 2012.
