It's an easy answer, just imagine that you've been asked by someone from
one of the several African nations with GDP less than $800/year,
effectively living from $5 a week: How can you possibly spend $200/week?
(for EU dole recipients.)
Once you get beyond bare basics to keep a humanoid alive for its natural
life span (30-35 years), everything is artificial luxury and
manufactured need. Differentiating between $200 and $500,000 a week is
frivolous.
