Why? The reason is a simple one. It all comes down to how much value you get for your money.
Financial literacy is important in life dealings. Some people just neglect it and continue to make financial mistakes that can throw their lives down a hill. It's always important to gain value in everything you're doing. Not necessarily the price, but the value attached to the price that's important.
This is nonsense or should I say bullshit? Some things we do and get no value of, for several reasons.
Besides, this would not be a financial mistake but a conscious choice.
Even it's just for leisure or to past time, so long that is what you want at that time, I think it's also part of getting value. Value means a lot to different people and what someone considers valuable may not be valuable to the other person. I think the focus should be on personal value.
