Everything is relative People have different incomes and different hobbies and desires. Look how much money can be spent on a sports car, motorcycle, clothes, jewelry, ski trips and equipment golf green fees, vacations, cruises...on and on. An expensive sewing machine is just another choice and relative to your income. At least with sewing machines, it can be used for years and years and for charity, family, gifts, home deco, quilts etc, as well as being a source of entertainment and enjoyment. Different choices make the world go round
