I generally agree. But owners would argue that a $3k treadmill that's used consistently is a much better value than a $500 treadmill that's used only its first month of ownership.

I'd add their are things that are much more expensive people spend money on that are much less likely to result in happiness. Buying a fast-depreciating Mercedes or BMW for example.

It's just important that people figure out what makes them happy, and what they're buying.

I have no issue spending $60k+ on a car because I like to drive and a nice car makes me happy every time I get in. There is no way I'd buy a Peloton though: I absolutely hate all fitness classes. I'd rather spend $3k on dumb equipment than $1k on "smart" equipment with classes.
