Even if you think in purely transactional terms like "asset currently worth $1300", what's wrong with holding onto an asset? Especially one that's likely to appreciate, not depreciate, as long as you look after it carefully.

And in the meantime, you get to enjoy owning it.

This is the psychological basis of capitalism: we enjoy owning things.
