if dont make something useful. is this addiction like hoarding
if make something good, it will show up on aliexpress for 1/10 bom cost
if components become tiny, need expensive assembly service
if components become less reliable

If you need to ask those questions, do something you enjoy.

I disagree with most of your statements, but even if you're correct, perhaps the net worth is to exercise your mind?  To find pleasure in solving problems and learning something new?
SiliconWizard:
Uh yeah not very clear what the OP is on about either... :)

But I'd say, define what *useful* is to you. And why you equate "good" with showing up for cheap somewhere else.
All of this is not clear.

It almost sounds like an existential crisis. After all, what you say, if we follow the same logic, can be applied to our own lives. Why bother living when there are billions of others already living, and many of them having either nicer life than us, or a life that has a much lower cost/footprint overall? :popcorn:

What is the net worth of assembling a jigsaw puzzle? You can look on the box if you just want to see the picture. What is the net worth of playing Chess? Or painting a picture, or stitching a pillow together from scratch when you can just go buy one from a store? With a hobby it's as much about the journey as the destination.
