I run a personal VPN on my Asus router (using Merlin firmware).
Pretty much what others have said. Secure access when connecting over sketchy wifi, but also so I can pull files off my home server.

If you router supports 3rd party firmware, most of them have OpenVPN capabilities baked in. Cheapest set up, but takes a bit of time to do the research and set up.
