I am, because I'm also a poor man. I have the height and ride profile to go 29er, but not the money to replace a perfectly functional 26" bike. As the Turkish mustelid says, if you're not racing the difference is immaterial, the only slight drawback with 26" at the moment is that if you ever want to upgrade wheels and tyres the choices are rather restricted.
