Am I considered to be a materialistic person?


I just love my equipment and records and sometimes can't wait to come home from work and play.....I don't think i could be truly happy without all this stuff! Does this necessarily make me a materialistic person of sorts? Do others feel the same way towards their gear and assorted media collections? My wife thinks i'm obsessed and does not see the point of all this lol.

Divorced twice now but my audio equipment is still here, it doesn't require SPA days,  Botox sessions, Country club memberships, and has a mute button. I will be six feet under with it and still smiling!  
My wife thinks I’m nuts because I have invested so much money and time in this hobby. I’ve been somewhat obsessed with audio since I was 12. I’m 60 now, doesn’t look like I’m going to give it up. And yes I am materialistic. I accept that. It could be worse.
Let you wife know Gambling and Hookers aka "Golf weekend in Vegas" are most mens "Hobby" and she should be happy.
