@4rcadia replied to your post: Why DO furries have so much expendable income? Is...
I’ve heard theories that because furry fandom is centered around a concept rather than any one particular series they put a lot more money into the fandom itself. It’s basically a fandom OF the fandom in way. So, money that might other wise go to buy Blu Rays of every session of [Thing] is a lot more likely to go towards commissioning someone to draw furry art. -
-And stuff like that is the stuff we’re more likely to see. So it looks like they have more money going into it, when they’re really just spending it differently. (Sorry this repose got as long as it did, jeez. I didn’t think I had this much to say about furry economics)
That’s actually a really interesting observation that makes a lot of sense. That actually tracks with other “fandoms” that, when I made this post, I thought also seemed to involve a lot more money. Like lolita/fashion hobbyists.
