And listening to my sister's angst over my nephew relocating for two to five.

Well maybe with good behavior he'll be back in one to two.

For me it is none of the above. I have not bought a coin for around three months, and will not buy another coin for around three more months for one reason: my local coin shop is closed do to renovations in the mall it was located in (and I do not buy coins online). I am patient though, and can wait for the next coin show

Can't find the right coin at the right price and sellers attitudes. Apart from seller putting ridicilous prices on coins, their attitiude towards me while I'm there determines whether I'll return or not. Sadly, I've found quite plenty of those recently. Seller who are not happy you're there or sellers you have to talk yourself out from a purchase are sellers I will most likely not return to, atleast not willingly.

I basically have the wife reason, except I'm not married, so it's actually my mother.
(And she's mostly just worried that I'm spending money that I didn't earn - the way the family budget works out right now, if I actually start earning money, I could probably afford spending about 60% of it on coins, which, if my current job attempt goes through, may well be something silly high like $200 per month).

Also a lot of the coins I want are silly expensive and I just can't make myself buy anything for $10 (unless I very definitely know it's worth more, but then I start worrying if it's a counterfeit because nobody in their right mind would sell the real thing so cheaply)... really even $2 is tricky.

For me, I voted cash funds. I need to pay for college somehow. However, my summer job will cover most of this semester and my college fund should pay the balance and the next two semesters. My first year was free.

Right now, I am using my monies to buy coins for cheap to resell. That's how I keep my hobby alive.

I let Lil' Guard Duck take care of that. He's better trained in using his bazooka.
