That 100,000 of them came from bulk purchases of the 3033 blue tub and the
4288 red bucket should temper your amazement a bit. I didn't have to spend
THAT much on those (relatively). It's not like all 230,000 pieces are
Galaxy Explorers and Message Intercept Bases (though if it were, I'd be the
luckiest Lego man in the world)

See there's the rub, I'm not just a spacehead, i'm also a technichead, and a
sculpturehead, and sorta-town and castle head too. It's remarkably brick
intensive to not specialize :)

My collection size has grown 6-fold since I graduated from college. All it
takes is a touch more disposable income *hehe* (Hey, wait a minute, old
man? I'm only 27!) I probably had less brick than you when I was your age,
young pup.
