No, I'm just a regular guy, low income actually. I bought 2 second hand ipad pro tablets (10inch), one second hand samsung tablet (10inch), my pc has 32gb ram (after i was on 16 gb ddr3 for a decade i bought a new pc last summer), wife has a second hand ThinkPad with 16gb ram, mini pc has 16 gb ddr4 and 2 smartphones with 14 gb ram in total. That's not rich.

around 70-80 gb of ram in total

That’s not rich.

And modest!
