[QUOTE="Terramotus, post: 4211259, member: 7220"] Well, I would submit that what people choose to do with themselves going forward is one of the few things that one CAN help. But point taken. Even so, I worked at Wal*Mart long ago, and if you work there one of the things you learn pretty quick is that there are a lot of things you can't afford on their pay. D&D stuff being potentially out of their range shouldn't be that much of a surprise. Despite that, I still managed to buy a significant number of D&D books while working there. It also occurs to me just now that D&D books are probably also cheaper now relative to inflation than they were in the past. My 2E Monstrous Manual has a cover price of $24.95 and a copyright date of 1993. I'm pretty sure I paid that cover price. I could get the 4E Monster Manual for about the same after shipping from Amazon. [/QUOTE]
