I just can't live like that. I don't want to be prudent then one day I can't do the things I love even if I could afford to easily. While it isn't easy right now I rather live like this then the way my grandpa did.
Everyone has their priorities and almost no choice is wrong.

So you're clearly cognisant you blow money on unnecessary luxuries (in the tens of thousands of dollars per year), yet the OP cries foul about a cost of living crisis. I'm struggling to conflate these two concepts.
You even used the word 'survival'. Is it essential to the human body to lay on a beach in Cancun for a month?
