Cost of living and Create Food

Honestly, the reason an adventuring wizard doesn't use create food for meals is "I want better food than this and I can afford it", possibly with a side order of "I have better uses for magical energy". DF doesn't have any real incentives for the PCs to go out and live the high life (nor did D&D), but that's the realistic likely money drain on adventurers.

A house rule I've considered is something like
Easy Come, Easy Go
If your net worth (including items and cash) exceeds your base wealth (from wealth and points for cash), you're inclined to go out and live the high life. Add 1% of the difference to your weekly cost of living.
