One additional advantage for cult members is not buying a lot of stuff is better for the environment.

I have stopped myself from starting a new Thousands Sons force for Kill Team (2018) and 40K just this last week.

I recently purchased a whole lot of GW product for a rather large Word Bearers force, which I’m slowly making my way through

Tempted as I was by the new TS codex, and all the conversions I had planned in my head, I didn’t want to make the same mistake I made with my last few 40K dabbles, which I have either flogged off unmade in their original boxes or are still incomplete.

I think the initial dopamine hit on making the purchase soon wears off, and a rash purchase can lead to a bit of buyers remorse.

If you want to make yourself feel better, perhaps a donation to a charity would work out. Don’t think I have ever regretted one of those.

The term “disposable income” is taking on a negative connotation for me, especially with all the suffering that is going on in the world, and even locally.
