I'd bet if you were a lego fan you'd say the same about legos.

Housing and concerts are orders of magnitude apart in "importantness". All of the items above are not needed to live. A home is needed.

People who buy Lego to sell in the future actually do call it investing by the way

It’s scalping if you have a quick turn around, it’s investing if you take care if it to sell farther into the future. Seeing a recently released limited set for double the price on ebay is scalping, seeing a 20-30 year old mint set for double the price is investing.

If it's a limited edition and someone buying it to "invest" denies another person's ability to purchase and enjoy it then fuck the "investor".

If enough are available at the time that anyone who wants it can acquire it then I have no problem with someone keeping a copy in good condition to sell later.

I'm not defending it by the way

[–] PropaGandalf@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Define a "home". A cave? A tent? A huge loft? What is really necessary to survive?

A place where you won't get sick, at a minimum

[–] Resonosity@lemmy.world 11 points 3 weeks ago

I'd add a place where you won't get attacked or threatened while sleeping, and maybe where you can store your stuff that also won't get stolen easily

[–] Dupree878@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

That’s a good classification to have.

The apartment I lived in until June this year was my or my friends home for 20 years, but I stayed sick after the new neighbors moved in and started destroying the place. I couldn’t have food anymore because of the rodents, roaches, bedbugs and diseased water that started running down the walls and leaking through the ceiling.
