That's the ratchet problem. Once you try nicer things you can't go back, and as in many areas (except thank God beer), nicer gets rapidly more expensive, you have to start working harder to earn the money, that eats up your free time so you feel the need to treat yourself on your odd free nights, and the spiral increases.
When I visited the Chablis vineyards a few years back, I preferred the ordinary Chablis to the Premier Cru :-)
