Dude, you aren’t supposed to be paying extra for that!

You take on risk when you customize things. Other people could dislike your color choices and drive your resale value down, the trendy refrigerator you bought might be a maintenance nightmare, etc.

You are supposed to be compensated for taking on risk, which is why owning should be cheaper than renting!
