Don't Buy Board Games You Can't Afford

Games are expensive. They always have been but it's been getting worse. I remember when I first entered the hobby and thought Eclipse at $60 was way out of my range when you could buy a good game for $30. Oh those days....Now I consider a $300 all in pledge money saved (well not actually....but close to it). And we live in a landscape that incentivizes buying all this stuff, I'm part of that problem myself. So what can we do about it?
