Some people just really like hotels. It becomes as much of the travel experience as the destination itself.

Raffle's example is a good one. I use one high quality handbag that goes from day into evening. I have had it for 5 years and am just now considering replacing it. But i have a friend who has an expensive bag for every day of the month. She happens to think I am crazy for spending what I do on hotel rooms. Everyone is different. And no, it's not always about how much money you have. It's more about how you like to spend it.
