That is true, each of us has our own values as to what is worth the money. This is why they built stripped down cars and luxury cars and everything in between, so everyone can find the balance that is needed. For me, now that I can afford it, comfort outweighs bank account balance. My Dad wouldn't buy a tractor with cab / truck AC, any power equipment or even a radio, mainly because he couldn't afford to spend the money, so he sweated on the tractor and in the trucks and cars (so did I when I lived on the farm). Now in my retirement years, having reared all the kids and scrimped on everything to put food on the table and clothes on their back, I finally am financially able to do what is good for me and one of those things is providing for my comfort when ever possible.
I don't use my wheel barrow to haul stuff anymore, got an RTV 900 for that, I don't dig holes with a shovel, got a back hoe for that, I don't sweat in summer and freeze in winter if I need to use my tractor either, I have a cab for that. Lots of other things that I have in order to make my life easier in my old age, like power screw drivers, impact guns, air ratchets etc that even though I may not use them daily or even weekly, when I do need them I have them to make my life better, easier AND more productive.
