One good reason might be if you think the value is going to increase beyond what you paid for it, like people paying whatever mad amount for bitcoins.

I think people who spend huge amounts on diamonds are stupid, but everyone has their reasons.

I'll be interested to see Marissa Mayer's stance on this - I wonder if she'll be as progressive as the media makes her out to be.

Could you explain what you mean by 'no need to manually refresh'?

I understand this to mean you don't need to refresh your browser to see the changes you've made in your source.

EDIT: Ah, nevermind - just read up on it: "Our LiveReload watch process automatically compiles source files and refreshes your browser whenever a change is made so you don't have to."
