[QUOTE="mamba, post: 8980370, member: 7034611"] of course not, there is only $200 worth of material every year that they even could buy, D&D is beat by just about everything when it comes to how much you [B]can[/B] spend on it. So you are making the point that the disposable income has to cover everything you want to buy. Ok, then my point that this just means it becomes a matter of personal priorities stands. If someone rather buys 2 pairs of sneakers or 5 video games a year than everything D&D, then that is up to them. I just fail to see how this is making any relevant point. So? Do you think every teen is interested in D&D and spending half of their 60 bucks on a book a year? I am sure WotC would love that, I just am not at all surprised that 1) D&D / TTRPGs do not make this list as a separate category, 2) those who like to play it still have enough disposable income to buy the D&D products they want. These statistics are wide averages, not narrow margins for every category Going by your statistics they have roughly $2400 a year, so 200 a month, i.e. enough to buy everything D&D releases in a year in one month if they really wanted to. Tell me again how they cannot afford it. I'd argue those that don't mostly do not want to [/QUOTE]
