Think we all spend on what's important to us, if Golf, pricey, Boating pricey, Eating out pricey and on and on... still think out of all items other than basic shop tools can't use a butter knife for all fixes :) and basic sewing , probibly don't have to have all :). but some wouldn't do without.
Others wouldn't function on non-techie items. That's how marketers market and new work is created. JMO
