Do You Tell Others How Much You Have Invested in Your System?


Putting security and personal safety issues aside, do you share with others how much you have invested in your system?

I can see cases when we share with those who are generally interested what the "tariff" is for superb audio reproduction. Or, those who are already know how tall you have to be to ride the ride.

Can you think of any other reasons (accountants, lawyers, insurance, etc)? Afterall, when your spouses second cousin pulls in the driveway in their Minivan, bragging about fact that you have $10k invested in cables may not be the best way show common interests?

What say you?

As my systems have been assembled for about 50 years, money value has become meaningless. I only buy on the cliff edge of major improvement anyway.

Pretty meaningless!

No. Not even if they were to ask. Actually few of them have any real interest and would be too polite even if they cared.

"You invested 10K in cables?"

Where did that come from? Nobody said anything about that.

I like your "logic" here.  And, my old cars that are worth considerably more than what I paid for them have cost me nothing.
