       Me: I am extremely lucky and have some awesome guitars, pedals and amps that bring me true joy every day. My days of acquisitiveness and GAS for its own sake are over. We need to learn to appreciate what we have, not always be thinking only about the next thing as if that will be the magic thing that completes our inner fulfilment. Just be for once, FFS!Also me: Holy shit! How do I sell a kidney to get this?🤦‍♂️

       @chrisgn That’s quite a startling statistic - both the attrition rate and the high average spend of the 10%.
