Different people are in different places. And obviously some people have been fortunate enough to have choices, and some do not.

I would assume that most people in this thread are not working 3 jobs to survive etc. My context is not their context.

I'd also guess they are far less invested in concepts like whether or not the server offers fries with that. In my long ago, limited experience, I couldn't have cared less about how many adverts there were, there were more pressing things to worry about.

Back to your point - I choose personal time over more money. My spending is modest, my income is likely much lower than most here. Frankly I have more than enough. Living is a lot cheaper when the goal isn't money.
