Because that is just what U are doing by replacing filters that don't need to be replaced.
Its no wonder why there are so many parts houses making money selling auto parts with people like U.

I gladly replace anything that looks like it might consider thinking about failing anytime soon. I probably average $2-3K per year on maintenance/repair for my car alone. That's the only way I know to keep my cars as reliable as new. The other option is to write a $60K check for a new car that I wouldn't like as much, anyway. I drive about 40K miles per year (all away from home) and I just don't have time to deal with the "drive it until it breaks" approach. If I couldn't trust my car to work perfectly when I need it, I would be driving a new one. The cost of filters, etc. is trivial.
BTW, I hate to admit it, but my family probably spends more than $100 at starbucks every week. As I said, this is very silly.
