I heard from a podcast of this Youtube/Twitch Streamer of how he spent $400.00 dining at this 3-star Michelin Restaurant in Chicago called Alinea and, to him, this was legit the best meal he has ever had and that it wasn't just the quality of food that was worth the price, but how the waiters presented where it's like a show or art that makes the dining experience as well.
I can understand spending a lot of money on something other people wouldn't do. I spent $250.00 back in 2019 to go to the Alter Bridge listening party to hear their latest album, at the time, a month before it went out in stores and get to meet the band for a brief moment and see them play a brief live set (which at the time, it was almost two years since they played a show). It wouldn't be worth it to anyone, but to a long-time fan like me who was willing and wanting to travel out-of-state, that was an opportunity I don't want to miss.
