How many hats does one man need?

[Zombie_61]

Is vise collecting a vice?...

Or is it vice versa?

I change the question to a question I can answer: Do you, the short bald man, enjoy your hats and caps? Yes I do. Enormously. Hats and caps that I do not enjoy I send them to appreciating homes.

Need? This is the word in your question that stops me. In thinking about an answer to hat needs, I go to Aristotle's account of human needs. This is valuable because he describes the connections between logical, metaphysical, physical, human and ethical necessities. Followed to conclusion the proper Aristotelian conclusion is that, far from being an inferior activity fit only for slaves, meeting needs is the first part of Aristotelian virtue.

I need hats. Therefore I have virtue.
(The above is indeed tongue in check tonight.)

That intellectual argument I would describe as philosophy. The most general definition of philosophy is that it is the pursuit of wisdom, truth, and knowledge. Indeed, the word itself means ‘love of wisdom’ in Greek. Whenever people think about deep, fundamental questions concerning the nature of hats and the limits of human knowledge, their values and the meaning of life, they are thinking about philosophy. Philosophical thinking is found in all parts of the world, present, and past and the limits of the knowledge of wearing hats and the values, as well as the meaning of life, they are thinking about philosophy. Actually, they are thinking about whether it's wise to get the new felt hat wet, when it's persisting down outside.

Eric gets extra points for his hat-philosophy combo knowledge!

After thinking about which hats I wear most often, I have decided to sell all but my silverbelly OR, grey Strat, and a straw.
