Thats just it though, they can't buy what you value, the journey. They will
never know the satisfaction that only comes from finding treasure in a box
when the previous 50 had junk. The satisfaction of months of searching, and
weeks of labor to bring an old system back on line. Just like the classic
car collector that has never turned a wrench. Some things money can't buy.
