If you live in America and if you are not a student, then you really need some serious career introspection if dropping $100 on game books involves a savings account.
That's not an attack on anyone. That's life advice. I am always stunned (and sickened) by these threads about how penniless gamers seem to be. Dudes, get better jobs. Students, I totally understand, but the rest of y'all?
If you think I'm being harsh, keep in mind that I am a headhunter and I am always stunned to see how many times smart, hard-working educated people suffer crappy jobs for crappy pay when there are FAR better options right around the corner.
QFT.
I've always felt D&D was pretty cheap compared to for example drinking or going on a holiday. On my last holiday in Thailand I averaged 100 euros a day (it adds up during a month long holiday), and however fun that might've been, it's not comparable to countless sessions of D&D you can get from core set. A single holiday day vs. core set.
Repeat after me: Greed is Good.
It's too bad mad skillz in aqcuiring loot in D&D don't seem to translate into real life for the average gamer.
