How do you justify the high cost of your audio gear?

My girlfriend is the only person in my life who understands why last month I purchased a pair of re-400's and tdk ba200's because she sees how excited I get and how much more I enjoy my music. Everyone else thinks I'm wasting my money on something I don't need. Well maybe I am but the amount of enjoyment I get out of my music is far beyond going out and getting drunk or high. Well maybe in the long run? Lol jk.

A calamity was about to happen that day, but decided to leave before things got really ugly... In her defense: she's pregnant and I already have a lot of headphones.

Coming back to the subject: Those who collect coins or currency don't really care about the value itself. Either card/comics collectors etc

I justify it by thinking how long I'm going to be using the thing. For example, I bought my Sennheiser HD580s for $150 6+ years ago and I still use it every day. I can't say the same thing about my other electronics like phones/computers.

Also, because they're so good at just about everything, I've never been compelled to upgrade.

Disposable income, nothing really magical about it. Work hard and play hard.

Bingo! I sound like my dad 30 years ago...work hard in school, go to a good university, get a good career and continue to work hard.
