Do we love our components more then ourselves ???

Recently I completed my long expected and delayed move cross country
My household furnishings was shipped via a national moving company.My components was packed ,crated palletized and shipped with a secured and bonded company. 
Because of delays with moving into a new home my household furnishings are in a storage unit .
My components however are neatly placed in a climate controlled room double locked room.
Am I the only audio addicted moron that would put this hobby and its cost before anything else ??
I'm sure many of you have moved and some long distance.What were your priorities //

I once thought about it, but than quit thinking and figured out that it's almost no remorse for me to sell anything I own in terms of record collection, turntables or other electronics or firearms. In case my close one gets in trouble I'll sacrifice my goods in the heart beat to get one out of trouble. Pieces of plastic, metal and other mechanisms not worth to be so attached to them.

czarivey, you are being too concrete even utilitarian. 
I don't like firearms, by the way. Bullets are stupid. Unlike blades, they are precise personal and never fail. Good blades I mean.

Inna, the point is that I'm not so attached to my firearms as you to your blades. I also have a few switchblade knives that can stab concrete pole and remain sharp and solid. They're all just metal toys to me with no emotional bonds whatsoever. Same with cars and trucks. Offered right money -- SOLD with no remorse and same with almost anything I own.
I'm attached to my parrot which is part of one of my shoulder right or left (definitely of his choice) and often repeats after me, answers or greets my guests. My friends and close ones are certainly NOT for sale.

I exaggerated a little about my attachment to knifes, but they are important.
Some of my friends are for sale but no-one is buying. Figures.

Bdp24, I have a solution for ya. You could go the route of cremation. That should leave plenty of room for all of your prized instruments. In fact, you could ask the Dude & Walter Sobchak to sprinkle your remains over your possessions while they rant about the injustices in Vietnam. Disclosure Statement: make sure its not a windy day.
