I thinned down my den a while ago. Now I am down to four brushes, two nice, two not so nice. I am slowly acquiring higher end badgers and maybe an Omega Evo synth. I don't want to go too nuts. I would like to keep it under ten good brushes. Still more than I need, but, I want some variety and there are so many nice things out there.
I don't recall how many brushes I tried before finding the ever ready 100 as my favorite, but now I only have 2 styles of bushes. 1 x Rubberset 400 and 24 ever ready 100 of different colors. My Lust to buy or try more is hard, but quenched.

I survived a lathey foreman
When first started traditional wet shaving I just bought a boar brush and some good synthetic Razorock synthetic brushes and then I went into Yaqi brushes and went on a binge for the last couple years.
I have a few more incoming and hopefully that is it. I enjoy the face feel of a nice brush, synthetic, Badger & boar all have unique brush face feels.(Retired & spoiled wet shaver
)
Same brushes hanging from my bureau mirror stand spice rack.
Have some great shaves!

I don't think there is anything with someone who likes to have couple dozens of brushes.....
Says the guy that helps fuel our addiction.
@Ice-Man just when I think I have a problem with brushes, I see your post and know I am all good
That's good I can see many more brushes in your den.

Variety is the spice of life we seek our goals.
Sorry you are not the first and won't be the last as that line has been used before lol.
Oh no never feel guilty in this hobby its nice to have a choice.
Brush Acquisition Disorder?
No Brush Acquisition Disorder - just additional opportunities to flesh out my collection. 
All under control - no problem here.

Must...resist...urge...to succumb...to BAD...again....My order has been placed
Which one did you order?
I'm just over 30 and don't have a lot invested in any one brush. I really like to rehab the old brushes more than paying a lot for something new.I own about 40 brushes. I’m not the right guy to ask. I got nuthin to add to this thread.
Does your wife ever say, "We need a bigger bathroom?" or "You take longer than I do in there!"Your just starting loads more to go yet
