I find Sam a little too dismissive sometimes. He has relatively wealthy parents who let him convert a garage into a home fab, and talks about dropping $30k on a second hand ESM like it's no big deal.
Don't get me wrong, he's a genius, but everytime he transitions into "anyone can do this stuff!" It rubs me the wrong way
Your comment reminds me of those woodshop youtubers with clickbait titles like "diy your own coffee table for only $50", only to find they are using about 10K or more of shop equipment.

The envy I feel when I see these guys with such equipment is enormous. I really would love so much to have a loaded electronics work bench especially oscilloscopes, LAs etc. and of course the time to actually play with it. :-(
