Too many things to do to get bored atm.
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

I pick a hobby/skill, spend hours researching what's needed to do it, spend days looking at options and reding reviews to find the 'best' equipment then a couple more days looking at places that sell the good stuff to get an idea what good prices are.

The cycle ends when I put everything in a basket or two and realise I'm spending 3 month's salary on stuff I don't know how to use and don't know if I'll enjoy using - needless to say I don't press the buy button!

This is similar to my original plan to become a fishing-guy..

I eventually decided that driving back and forth to the water was too arduous.

Yes fishing is a perfect example tp4 - as someone with no experience you may think as I do you just need a rod so it will be cheap to try, but when you think a little you realise you need waterproof footwear and a coat you don't mind getting smelly, a net, a decent knife, some scales.  Then you research and (guessing from here on) find out expensive bendy rods are better for beginners and fish are more blind to blue tinted line...

Before you know it you've spent a fortune, not to mention the practicalities like transporting said equipment.

Makes me wonder how anyone starts anything...
