Poor analogy. It's more like already owning 12 different kinds of breweries and deciding to purchase an established vineyard in Napa Valley. You don't buy the manastone for a single consumption - you buy it for the utility it provides that can be found basically NOWHERE ELSE for certain classes. It's in no way a "novelty" item.

My bet is you personally know very few - if any - rich people if you really think this is how all - or even most rich people act.

Here's some reading for you:

If you are only spending 2-3 dollars on liquor to get drunk, clearly you are doing it VERY wrong.

Enjoy your headache.
