I spend a hundred quid or so, every year for the last ten years on Steam (Steam for Linux onwards), but in exchange for that, I have several hundred quality games - probably more than I can ever play in my lifetime.

How are people spending so much on imaginary gold rings for "Sweetshop Diamond Solitaire Saga Origins"?

Is it simply a matter of there's 100 of them for every 1 of me?

My guess is either gambling addiction or money laundering.
