I started collecting in 2003, I keep a spreadsheet of everything toy-related I buy (and sell) and so know exactly how much I've spent. Let's just say that the money I've spent would make a very nice deposit for a house.

I don't think I've been irresponsible though - I'm pretty sure if I was to ask anybody I know who doesn't collect toys whether they have that much money sitting in the bank, they'd say no. They've just spent it on other stuff.

So I'd say it has been worth it, I enjoy it and my spending's not out of control. I do think everyone should keep track of their spending though, if you'd rather not know then perhaps you're spending too much.
