Yeah, I blame Behringer. I never started because it’s so expensive. Now with Behringer it’s so cheap, so I bought my first synth. And a second. Etc. The bar of “should I buy this” is very low when the prices are so sexy. Now I have a decent setup of legendary clones, so now I can see which ones I never use so I can sell them. Honestly, I use almost all of them every time. So now I’m saving money for proper eurorack modules. I just ordered Error Instruments modules, they are so unique, quirky and beautiful. Also invested in Erica Synths drum modules and Endorphins Ghost among others for creating better kicks and high hats.

But I never was a student, I never had a student debt. I always made enough money to pay my bills and have something extra to spend on something nice. Now that I’m getting a bit older, I’m partying a bit less so I can afford a synth or 2 every month. Now I have enough I can focus on improving the quality of my setup. Buying second hand and selling second hand barily comes at a loss, sometimes even at a win. Behringer is cheap, but does lose a bit more value than better quality gear. But is also cheap second hand and doesn’t lose much more when selling it again a year later.
