Why My Musical Interests are More Diverse than my Musical Collection

Before I went to college, I had consistent summer financial gain and virtually no substantial monetary outflow. Consequently, I had a fair amount of discretionay income. Furthermore, one of areas in which I spent that discretionary income was on music.

During that time of life, my musical interests were fairly narrow: Southern Gospel and Contemporary Christian Music. That's what I bought. Through the years I've become more diverse (though I still am not what I would call eclectic in my musical taste), but during those same years I have become less financially able to spend on a non-necessity like music.

So I have a musical collection representing an outdated, underdeveloped musical taste.

In fairness, I have some good SG and CCM from that era, and I have been able to continue to add to my musical collection through the years, even on my more limited budget.
