Well Wes,

When I was working.. the last time I collected a pay check was 20 years ago.. I had plenty of expendable income.. Today WE, ( My Wife and I are very comfortable ) being married 53 years makes my priorities focused on her future without me more so than toys. Its what you do at my age. I still like stuff, but I'm not as hungry as I once was for stuff. If my photography was not giving me the feed back I needed, I would upgrade.. At my age, I'm enjoying the fruits of 55 years of photography and the 80,000 keepers Ive collected. Pets, Horses, children , grandchildren, vacations, everyone went into the bank and now they are paying dividends in priceless memories.

I think lots of older members are in this same boat.

My Latest Toy.

Still like stuff and BTW.. I bought my wife a New car ( last summer ) the week before I bought this one for me.. No car payments.
