Well, I started in 1999 with the McFarlane MGS1 set. It's been 16 years.

Somehow folks can find the income to buy collections like these even though prices today have skyrocketed from the good ol' days.

It's about budgeting and planning. I knew that around game release dates I'll need some money ready. So I plan for that. Plus, when you space it out over many years it's not bad.
My collecting really slowed down after 2009. Only have a few pieces from MPW and just 2 from MGS5. MGS1-4 it was hardcore. Now I just pick up a piece here and there from earlier games. It is expensive though, no doubt!

When you add that to taxes and bills, everything just sucks. Especially when you're renting or renovating and have to maintain a car...

Ever see The Score with DeNiro? Good movie. Fantastic bit of advice in one scene that I tried to follow:
Nick Wells: [to Jack] You want my advice? Make a list of everything you want now and spend the next twenty five years getting it, slowly, piece by piece.
I found it applicable to just about everything. My family, home, career, and naturally any material hobbies.
