Ah but, I think of the huge number of hours or pleasure I have had from this hobby. Last year I was very ill and very depressed because of it. Then I got a magazine with a free copy of Poser 3 on it. My husband brought me Poser 5 for christmas (wow was I thrilled!) and I am so happy with it. Yes I have also spent loads on this hobby. I don't smoke. drink, do drugs or gamble (Boring ain't I?) and so I don't begrudge a penny of it. Hobbies are about being happy - if they are not maknig you happy then stop. Poser has (kinda literally) saved my life, rediscovered latent artistic urges and given me cool street-cred at work after someone realised who I was and saw my erotic pictures on the web!!!!!!
