It's a snooty response becasue I think that anyone who poses a question
should be interested enough in the answer to actually read it.

Is this kind of snottiness really necessary? All of us make choices...One
need not be "rich" to own a Leica, one need only have decided that the Leica
in question is the particular photographic instrument one needs to do the
best work possible - and then make the sacrifices necessary to purchase it.
Those sacrifices could well entail cutting back on other "minimal" expenses.
