For me, I didn't have to, it was a choice I made long ago, and only somewhat recentyly finally got some traction on. I married early and have stuck with the same gal, but boy, I played the field on guns. Tired of trying to keep track of all of it, and "settling down" with just a few. Life has become so much simpler.
Now, my best friend, he seems to have to have the biggest, the baddest, the latest and greatest and at least one of EVERYTHING. It's funny that it's difficult to share our greatest common interest in discussion, because we are at opposite ends of the the range, but we get by just fine.
I can't/won't try to convince anyone else that fewer moulds and fewer guns is "better," and I doubt anyone would convince me the opposite is true either. I'll just accept that I'm in the minority (OK, weird) and roll with it, but I still enjoy seeing and hearing about all the stuff everyone else likes. If everyone only liked what I liked, I'd get bored.
Shoot, I even have a succession plan (REgression plan?), in case things get tight - I know which would be the first to go/last to go. I will die with AT LEAST my 357 mag, 3", 5-shot stainless revolver and the 360-180 WFN mould.
EDIT: You boys (17 to 97) inspire me with your energy and vigor to continue to "play the field." I respect that, but know my own limits.
