I will agree with you there. That's part of the reason why I've taken on two or three or even four jobs at the same time, on a temporary basis ... it has allowed me to save for things I want. That's part of the reason why I've accomplished further education, often while working ... like I'm doing now.
I happen to like being able to live a comfortable life.

When I was poor, I wanted quantity.
Now that I'm somewhat better off, I am more interested in quality.
It has been an interesting switch.
