it's still perspective though. Theres lots of horses I dont have an interest in simply because it'd be a cold day in hell before I was able to afford it, so why bother? Give me a million $ though and I might reconsider and kindle an interest.

Or heck, whose to say when your older, and have money spilling out of your pockets from retirement and who knows what else, you might just not care about "brains", and just buy whatever the heck you darn well please! And I'd say theres alot of people who earn that right... $ is nothing to the people who have PLENTY of it, and it has nothing to do with intelligence. It's just for the average person, blowing $ usually = not being smart, because for the average middle class person you're always trying to be careful with your money to manage life. For some, they don't even have to think about it......
