We're creatures of hierarchy because we're descendants of creatures of hierarchy. It seems to have worked out well at advancing species into the future.

I understood the marketing and social aspects of what a diamond is when I decided to participate in the ritual of purchasing a diamond ring for my wife. She wanted one and it brought her joy, so that's enough justification for me. I paid cash for it; much less than I could "afford" too.

Fortunately we have more than just food, water, and shelter to spend money on. Simply existing isn't fun.
