Paying for convenience isn't a sign of maturity, you're just cash-pilled by advertising.

People who pay for conveniences in order to delegate their labor these days often confuse their class/caste privileges for a sign of maturity. What you're confusing for a sign of maturity (people cooperating with you because you are competent/ respected) is actually capitalism replacing your social connections with money. You'll notice that's also how they trashed the rest of your society, if you take two minutes and think about it.
