You pay 1k euros for a 1k bike. I use my tax money to ride a 10k bike to work.
We're not the same

My commute bike was around 5k about four years ago, hitting 20k km this year. Bike was payed for work, not sure if I would've gotten one for that price otherwise
Jokes on you, my summer hobby bike (entry level aluminium road bike with drop bars) cost about the same as my commuter (aluminium hybrid with a flat bar).
When your life is N+1, you gotta make smarter financial choices, heh.
I ride a 300 € bike as a hobby in summer. It's from 2014. Given the highly advanced bike stealing culture present locally, any more expensive bike would need to be smeared with gull excretions for protection against theft. :P
