Is it abnormal that I don't feel or acknowledge the value of money?

Because I remember when I was younger and spending on whatever I wanted, my dad would say that when you'll finally start earning money yourself and pay for a living, you'll start feeling different about money and you'll finally feel the real value of money. But I don't. I am earning, I pay for my own living expenses, and still I feel like I'd spend 300 dollars on a concert ticket or things like that, just because I want it on the moment. And I don't feel like there's anything special about money. Is it? Am I not seeing something? Do I need to struggle to see it?
