    Lots of criticism over pissing money up the wall.
    Would be interested to know how many of you guys

    - pour money into souping up their cars they'll never get back
    - pour thousands into music making machines that they're never going to get an income back from
    - buy fuckin' SUPREME gear
    - Have expensive eating/drinking tastes ... it all comes out the same way

    (Sidenote: All of the above are in no way GOOD for the environment)

    Why do you do it?
    It makes you happy. It's a hobby. You feel part of a community.

    If I can make art in my chill time, rather than watching Netflix that keeps me happy and sane. If I end up making a few quid from it then 'woohoo!'.

    ----

    I will say I have learned my lesson of minting on Foundation when GAS is high and have pissed away a chunk of money doing this (about £300) but will get that back at somepoint.

    • i kinda agree...

      spend your money on what you want and fuck the rest...

      cheers

    • Jesus, this is boring the read... how old are u ? 11 ? that u have to write self defence boredom like this. it´s hysterical !neverscared
    • What if don't do any of the above? What if I lead a very frugal life? Does that mean I'm better than you?palimpsest
    • exactly _me_microkorg
    • Grandpas engage! Diaper crew, all in! Do it for Romania!cherub
    • This is a dumb argument, a basic false dichotomy.
      Somebody owning a car does not justify another selling/buying NFTs.

    • not about owning a car. about the hobby of souping up cars. you NEVER get back the money you put in.microkorg
    • The human's need to belong to a group is a capitalists dream come true.shapesalad
    • if u enjoy stuff that runs on petrol and destroys the enviromennt i.d say go for it...microkorg
    • If it makes people happy then great, but in terms of buying, I don't personally get it at all. On the other hand, would be interested in selling.kalkal
    • I don't get the Buying part either. Why someone would part with megabucks for a jpeg, but they DO and they love to collect.microkorg
    • And I'd never thought myself a collector but on HicEtNunc i've found myself collecting pieces.microkorg
    • While if you enjoy stuff that ruins the environment I would say DON'T go for it.
      Live your truth though.

    • some rich sillicion valley fart problably found 50.000 sheep that give him 300 buckeroos for minting.. he fooled you, dont be fooled twice.neverscared
    • So basically Microkorg, you need to get the permission of a bunch of Romanian hairdressers on an internet forum, before you spend your own money. Got it?cherub
    • not a just a bunch... a very special bunch of hairdressers... sadly enough the nft babies have no hair on the head... but shit in their diapers and toxicity atneverscared
