Generally they do benefit. Or it could be said that based on the knowledge they had at the time they benefit. They trade one thing for something that they desire more. I might buy a wide screen TV because I prefer the TV to the money it costs, or perhaps I buy some shares of stock because I'd rather have them then the cash. Of course later objective and/or subjective values can change, the stock might go down, I might decide that I overspent for the TV and regret the purchase. But at the time of the purchase I traded something for something I wanted more.
