I camp in the hammock at least 40 nights a year (and that's just with my Scout Troop.. more with family etc)..
So that comes out to $20 a night in the hammock.
That is a bargain. Especially for all that comfort.

I think the real question is what is the cost of NOT hanging. If I wasn't hanging, I would be at home with 2 teenage daughters...watching them take selfies on electronics more expensive than my hammock gear. The stress of watching superficialness is quite costly.

PS I love them extremely ... just sometimes I need to connect with something real. I wish I could get them to come hang with me instead of their electronics.
