Re: Want vs Need
I often have the same problem.
You have to determine business vs hobby.
Hobby is something you like to do because it makes you happy - profits don't matter.
Business is there to make money and should not be affected by your personal feelings. I don't buy gear unless I need it - but I rent it a few times first. If I need to rent it more than a couple times a month, I'll buy it.
Ask someone unbiased (maybe like a business owner or business professor) what they think. Tell them the pros and cons of whatever you want to buy and any other background they need, and they'll tell you whether it will be a good business decision or whether it's just another toy.
It all comes down to ROI.
