Living conditions have a large impact on productivity and general mental wellbeing. For introverts, I think there's an argument to be made that splurging a bit on more space for yourself could lead to better performance in many areas of life. It's hard to put a dollar figure on that. For extroverts, this may be less true. I feel like I should point out that in most of the country, including large cities, it's hard to even spend $2k/month on any apartment, let alone save that much by opting to have roommates.
