Why Are People So Concerned About How Others Spend Their Money?


It's really tiring. Audiophools, Snake Oil, why buy this/that. I don't give a rip what others do, although I like to read about it but none of my business. I'm just not geared that way. People want to buy a Lambo, 10,000 buck cables, 100,000 buck loudspeakers, it's no skin off my nose yet some people are obsessed with what others do. I don't get it.

Well as you can see, you aren't the only one annoyed by this type of behavior (I'm sure you knew that). I attribute it to simple (And common) envy and jealousy. I have zero concern or issue with how another adult decides to spend "their" money. It's absolutely no one else's business. This envious attitude seems more prevalent the last few years on this site.

A young guy told me I had it easy with no debt and a fancy stereo. He was 25 years younger. I told him I'd give it all back to be his age again and that 25 years ago, I too had none of what I have now. It's all perspective and relative. 

I've said this a few times lately but I'll say it again.  Far too many contributors on this site fail to accept their comments, suggestions, advice......  only amount to their opinion.  And as such are generally no more or less valid that any other opinion proffered.  Want to tell me that one speaker cable is better than another?  Have at it.  It's just your opinion.  IMHO 🤣

Then why do you incessantly pester folk into purchasing products from your * nefariously interested  * commercial companies , Tekton and Townshend ?
