Nope, definitely not alone. I'm just too gunshy about spending too much money buying cards because I'm paralyzed by the fear of losing money on them. I'm admittedly pessimistic about the future of the hobby from a long term investment perspective, which just doesn't jive well with my Ebeneezer ways.
I love reading about others joys and successes on the board, though, and I still get anxious to get the latest auction catalogue to thumb through everything.
I've found that going through stuff from my childhood (mid-late 80's) stuff is enjoyable, yet it doesn't cost anything.
