Many seem to need to use something to justify the cost, they see objects more as tools. Many see the same objects as art and can appreciate them without using them as originally intended. Most are somewhere in between. I have some guns and a antique decoy collection that I really enjoy to look at but have no need to use them, I justify owning them because they bring me joy. And I think that is the bottom line for everyone, if you don't get joy out of owning an object remove it from your life. Life is to short to be burdened with things we don't enjoy.
