I used to identify with this, but made a hard switch the opposite way. When I look back on the last 10 years, the things I value are memories with friends. The idea of saving a few bucks to not going on a trip for a "fleeting memory" is crazy to me. That's all we have at the end of the day. I feel so much richer having experiences with friends and family, and the gear and stuff I buy gives me zero satisfaction compared to my honeymoon or another trip, or a nice dinner I hosted with friends.
