I was at my 12-step addiction recovery group meeting yesterday because I was going to drive 150 miles round trip to visit a stamp store.

Fortunately, I called my group mentor and he was able to talk me out of spending $30 or $40 on gas just to look at a few used German stamps that I probable don't need.

Unfortunately, he had a couple of German inflation covers he was trying to sell. I bought them.

The question is, "Am I a sucker, or was he just taking advantage of a damaged personality?"
