Exactly!

There are certainly some wealthy people who live extremely frugally, but most spend in ways that please themselves. The fact that some of them are not "car people" and don't drive anything exotic, doesn't mean that they don't indulge themselves in other ways.

If they are so "frugal" that they live like paupers while having extreme wealth, then they are just being stupid. Psychologically healthy people work hard to build and earn wealth so that they can enjoy life's luxuries -- and for a lot of people that may not involve driving a luxury car or living in a mansion.
