The ritual of wrapping nice things in tacky plastic is getting out of hand.
I can’t understand the mentality of some collectors who amass nice things like cars, watches, wine, etc., just to look at and brag about and show them off, but never, ever, to be regularly driven, or worn on the wrist, or consumed and enjoyed with family or friends. I find this type of collecting (hoarding) to be rather sad for those whose lives seem to consist of the abundance of the pristine things which they possess, but don't use.
Life is short, so it's foolish to hoard nice things and obsess about them and keep them in pristine, unused condition for the next owner to drive, wear, consume, and really enjoy when you’re gone…
That's my opinion anyway.
