And yet when you die, the contents of your house (for inheritance purposes) will most likely be valued at under $10K and nobody will raise an eyebrow at that.

I don't have nice furniture because my kids will value it for an inheritance. I have nice furniture because it is very pretty and extremely sturdy. It is okay to pay for nice things that you get value out of.

When I die, my body will be worth a pittance. But I still value it far more than that now.
