Obsession is in the eye of the beholder . Run it once a month, not obsessed. Run it multiple times a day for weeks on end, well...
When I first learned of it, I ran it a lot primarily to get an understanding how to use it and to understanding how the "what if" component worked. After that I ran it (along with other calculators) at year/end/beginning, or when a major or potentially major financial aspect was to be considered (e.g. accounting for a major expense, strong indications of upcoming Megacorp layoff, assess future impact of resetting resetting AA).
Since retiring I have run it several times a year, as with other calculators,and I do not consider that "obsessed". Moderation in all things...
