Let's be real here - getting into vinyl now and from scratch is a totally discretionary luxury spend. It's what someone might do if they have the big bag of excess funds to blow - it's just not a necessity. Buying all that gear & associated goodies is buying a lot of expensive man-toys (sorry, Elizabeth...). You apparently did not fully include your significant other/partner-in-marriage as part of the purchase plans nor shared the overall budget before you acted and now you wonder why you didn't realize the full extent of your overall purchase requirements?
BTW - we'd suggest you make sure the price of the sparkly or whatever toy you buy to mollify your wife very closely approximates the total cost of your latest batch of toys...
