Credibility is enhanced by making some serious coin on a variety of bikes, to the point of welcoming the next purchase. I know Jim has done a lot better than me over the years so I can only imagine the credibility he has on a bike purchase.
On keeper additions, it helps to let one go now and then. Don't let bikes adversely affect lifestyle. If $$ spent on bikes is getting in the way of life (like missing out on a vacation), time to let a few of them go.
